A whole year; they'd been beyond my reach for an entire year and the days just seemed to be getting longer and harder to handle. I visited them every day and watched over them as they rested but how much longer can I continue to endure this? For so many months they were all that I'd had and now I felt like my whole universe had imploded. My true family; the one I'd chosen, my boys. They weren't down the street anymore. I couldn't send them a message and ask them to come and visit. Slowly, as the days turned to weeks and then months, my pain had numbed along with every other emotion and I could function on some level but I hadn't smiled since the day that Dr Roberts had knocked on Nathan's door and informed me that somehow Volto had won.

Sang Sorenson is new to Charleston. Nobody told her why they had to leave Illinois. In fact, nobody told her why she had to move 12 times since she was 9. At first she was confused and asked questions. She learned very quickly that asking questions only caused more pain for her. She figured they would stay for a little while and go on their way. Only she didn't account for the boy across the street, or his 8 brothers who would shake up her life more than any move ever has. Nor did she ever imagine Raven coming back into her life, and his 4 brothers that come as a package deal. Sang was accustomed to running, that's what her life had been. But for the first time in her life, she wanted to stay. Her wishes had gone ignored for so long, that maybe fate would decide to give her a chance. These amazing characters go to C.L. Stone. I just wanted to share my spin on it.

(Based on the Academy series by C.L.Stone. Do not copy as a lot of this is original work from other stories I'm working on. I just wanted to play around with them in a fanfiction for fun. So I'll be pretty pissed if I find them used elsewhere.) MATURE CONTENT WARNING: there will be abuse and sexy scenes. Lullaby just moved to Charleston, North Carolina. But besides that fact she's still locked away from the rest of the world. Kept in the basement and only allowed out to clean at night, she's got a very small world that's hers. Her mother is cruel and abusive, her father distant and complacent, her sister jealous and malicious. In her basement she creates her own worlds, by painting them on the walls. Her only music is her voice that she dances to. She's beautiful and creepy and socially stunted yet so full of wonder and compassion. Nine men are exhausted from their mission at Ashley Walters. The students belong in prison, the 'management ' is a joke, and the trailers out back are ridiculous. They're apart of The Academy - a secret society with the goal to better the world by any means. Their students are immortal warriors, trained to protect. The Blackbourne team is at a slight disadvantage though - they're missing their mate. Each team has a mate, a single individual to be shared between them for all eternity. This mate will become their center, their reason for existing. She'll also empower them and make them stronger. So when a flirty doctor, a music prodigy, and a foul mouthed artist hear an angel singing on their way back from the diner - imagine their horror and surprise when they find their mate lives in a concrete cage. Imagine their surprise that she's been locked away since her childhood over a unique gift each mate is blessed with. A gift meant to be revered and guarded. Her gift being unheard of and new - the lullaby. Coincidence? Perhaps there's more to her tale than the evil mother and the girl who lives in the basement. #LuluSmash

This is based on the Academy series by C.L. Stone, the plot is mine but sadly none of the boys belong to me. Please don't copy this or I will be very upset. Huge thank you to @docistheboss for the amazing cover photo! 1693 and Sang is caught in the middle of the Salem Witch Trials in Salem, MA. With trying to take care of her sick mother, staying out of sight of Reverend McCoy, and trying to keep from being accused she certainly has a lot going on. Suddenly nine judges from Boston show up and throw her world off track. Will Sang be able to stay below the radar with these men showing an interest in her or will she be thrown into the lime light? Will these men be able to save her and stop more innocent people from being killed or will Salem finally be torn apart? Warning: There will be swearing (cause come on people....Gabe and North are still in this) as well as some talk about torture and abuse as well.

At seventeen years old, Sang Sorensen knows that she isn't normal. Her father's the President, for one. For another, she's been in love with the Vice President's son, Victor Morgan, since she was fourteen and she's still not sure if he feels the same way. And then there's the increasingly disturbing mail from her own secret admirer, one who suddenly doesn't seem so harmless. After a bomb threat the Department of Justice is still making sense of, Sang starts her senior year intent on keeping her head down, intent on finding some semblance of normal. Until she meets a group of guys who make her question if that's even what she really wants. ----- Disclaimer: This is fan fiction based off of CL Stone's (amazing) Academy series and inspired by Sierra Simone's American Queen. I'm receiving no financial gain from this nor will any be sought.

Welcome to The Academy. An elite prep school aimed at creating future leaders. Young people from around the world are invited to attend. Sang finds herself rubbing elbows with the children of the rich and powerful. Over night her safe sheltered world is flipped on its head when she finds herself on a plane heading towards a new life. Characters belong to C.L Stone. The story is mine.

Seeing spirits isn't something new to Sang, but having someone that believes her, is. Well, the Blackbourne team not only believe her, but they're just like her.... Psychic. In fact, she's their Fated Link. The one person that will finally tie their broken souls together as one. But soon they find out they're not the only ones that want her. ***GhostBird FanFic*** I do not own any of the charaters, they belong to CL Stone, but the new plot twist is mine.

What happens when Sang meets the boys at school and peaks their curiosity instead of being trampled by Max that night. Does it mean that they stick to the initial plan and keep to them selves while Sang watches from a distance or are they curious enough to try and meet her right away?

What if all the guys already knew Sang? What if some of the guys didn't know about each other? What if there was no Academy? DISCLAIMER: The Ghost Bird Characters are the property of CL Stone. This story is for entertainment purposes only.
