A short story based on the theme of survival for the book thief competition!
It focuses around a girl named Annie who suffers due to a train accident. It's my first piece of work I've had the confidence to upload to wattpad, and is by no means great - I know that!
But I hope you like it! :3
Side note: I actually won the competition in the end! Yay for me! So now I have a signed copy of "The Book Thief" which is one of my favourite books and wow. It's wow. Read it. XD

Love and Revenge (Complete)
Annie Bloom is an average girl. She's in college, has a best friend, works, and studies. Yet one day she finds herself attacked, hospitalized, and nearly killed. Her best friend, Will, is certain it has to do with the guy she just started dating. Is Will jealous? Could her new boyfriend be involved? Or is it someone else entirely? Annie must find out quickly because every day could be her last. *** I could feel nothing but the pain. I felt every hit in excruciating detail with each erratic, painful heartbeat as my world became reduced to a series of agony. I struggled to breath through the broken ribs that constricted my airflow like a two-ton concrete slab had fallen on me. The blood from the blows to my head rolled down my face in waves. My arm was twisted at an impossible angle, yet I couldn't scream because my mouth would not open. I could feel the kicks coming at me from all directions, and as I received another one to the head I knew this was the end for me and my heartbeat slowed. The stab wound was bleeding too much for me to survive. When they left me for dead my eyes began to droop and the last thing I saw through fuzzy tunnel-like sight was a man running towards me before one final rattling breath coursed through my broken body and my heart stopped beating.Complete

ππππππππ | (n.) something that can make you forget grief or suffering Where there is life, there is death. Where there is light, there is darkness. There is a balance within the universe, always. Only two things remained infinite in the universe; death, and chaos. The lifespan of a demigod is one that is unbelievably short, but alas- death is inevitable. Lilith Jade died protecting those she loved, and she will continue to live through her loved ones. What happens when one equation is taken out of balance? The light, taken away and left them to succumb to the darkness. There is only one definite result; chaos. There is nothing more dangerous than a lovers' revenge; and there is nothing that is stopping them from getting back their light, even if they were running towards death. The end of times is coming; and there was nothing left for them to lose. When the light fades, the bell chimes; then comes chaos. [BOOK SIX OF THE 'ELYSIAN' SERIES]

Obscure
[book one] The game was simple: A contest comprised of three unique challenges, designed to test a human's strength physically and mentally, their personality compatibility, and their chance of survival. The prize was excruciatingly tempting: The chance to be reborn, into a strong immortal creature of the Night, and to stand beside one of the sexiest men alive for the rest of your endless life --as his Mate.
