I, Kleah Walker have always quite been an outsider/popular kid in high school. I never quite fit into any groups you know the sluts, emos, nerds, populars, and freaks. The only reason I’m even considered popular is cause Luke Hunter, the quarter back of the football is my best friend and guys always consider me “hot” even though I don’t see it . I will admit I am good looking 5’6, brown eyes with an inside layer of a golden yellow (every person I meet says my eyes are so special and I will admit they are one of a kind), light brown luscious hair, and a slim body with curves in the right place, but I never had a boyfriend. It’s not like I’m not interested in guys, it’s just I mainly focus on my studies and mostly spend time with Luke. Luke has always been there for me since 7th grade when my former best-friend humiliated me in front of everybody, he was my shoulder to lean and from that day on we were like 2 peas in a pod. Luke is extremely popular, he had black spiked hair, hypnotizing blue eyes, muscular figure, and an amazing jawline. Plus every single girl is all over him, and its plain disgusting. Yeah, you might’ve figured out by the way I described him that I do like him. I didn’t always have feelings for him though, but as we grew closer I started to develop those “feelings”. However I would never tell how I feel because 1. It would totally ruin our friendship if he didn’t like me back (and I know he doesn’t like me back) 2. He’s a total player who never had a stable relationship in his entire life. He goes through girls like a baby goes through toys so what’s the point of telling him.

[ Cover art by KaisarReitz on FurAffinity. ] Francis Gale was isolated. The black-backed jackal was born to an increasingly-mad father on a Virginia plantation, tucked safely away from society. Reared amongst pedigreed racehorses and a house of servants. Sheltered from the war on America's doorstep. Soon he discovers a remedy to his loneliness. However, the cost rapidly proves itself to be greater than Francis anticipated. Zachariah was underestimated. He was the collared lizard brat of a nameless slave and separated from his twin sister Charlotte. Always amiable and supportive of his bosom friend, Francis. A naïve and shallow-minded boy. Yet an unprecedented bitterness lurked within him. Peter Lawson was forgotten. One of a brood of twelve Catahoula Leopard Dogs, he never stood out from his siblings. He resented the aristocratic world he was thrust into and longed for adventure in the untamed wilderness of his country. But Peter found himself pining after something more than adventure; a daring pursuit to act upon in the face of his society. Miss Raindrop was born into the rain. The white drop-shaped marking on her forehead was a clear reflection of it. From the moment she laid eyes on her Francis, she was determined to protect him. To be his horse. And she could only witness the storm he was thrust into as a forbidden love and a revolution threatened to drown him.
