In a very grey part of an unknown city, Natalie An Fisk lives with the sole thought of becoming someone. She simply didn’t expect it to happen the way it did. After meeting seventeen-year-old George Carrington Barclay II, an avenger of rightful justice and a supposed philosopher of the despondent human mind, Natalie is thrown into a universe where watches are not simply watches, an Elizabethan queen is out to control history, and the world is infinitely more than it seems. A/N: Unedited first draft.

Stella’s not like most girls. She doesn’t spend her nights talking about cute boys or who she’s going out with next week. Cause really, what’s the point in that? When a new kid, Jace Matthews transfers to her school, she’s probably the only girl not under his charm, making her Jace’s number one target. It seems like he just won’t leave Stella alone, and she’s left with her last resort: fighting fire with fire. Someone needs to teach pretty boy a lesson, and Stella’s the perfect girl to do it.
