Manonblackbeack Stories

Manon and Dorian Highschool AU: Manon Blackbeak runs because that is all she knows to do. Run, and drive. Because she could not fly, Manon drives. She wished she could fly though. It would be so much simpler. But, of course, she cannot, so drives until her legs hurt and she's breathless. Dorian Havilliard drives because he does not fear life. Because empty dirt roads and the endless turn of wheels was all he ever wanted his entire life. So, one day, a week before Manon started her fourth high school of the last two years, she's dragged to a party by her cousin Asterin. Feeling awkward and heavy, Manon leaves to do what she does best, drive. Dorian Havilliard escapes his own party to do the same. The drinks and skin gets on his nerves. The money and bling, evidence of his family who refuses to speak to him. One night, when he finds a girl with a key as a weapon, breath that smells like grape jolly ranchers, and cat eyes, on his usual road, he's entranced to learn more about her. To figure out why her lips were dyed red and her hair dyed white. Why he had never seen her before? Manon doesn't kill pretty boys. Well, she doesn't kill in general, but she'd thought about it. So, when she finds a pretty boy following her, then reaching into her car when she stepped away once to take a picture of the moon she contemplated killing pretty boys. Except this boy--this boy looked at her like she was a pretty girl.

There was something worth fighting for. Elide was sure of that, even if coming from a abusive home she still saw the light in all the darkness around her. But what she never thought is that a person could be worth fighting for. But then she met Lorcan.
