Nocturne
(Clair de Lune book #3) "I am here to officially confirm the existence of beings beyond human limitations on this planet, and they are by no means friendly." It's been a while now, traveling across the country and taking down facilities left and right. It's like a game of dominoes, the more that topple, the louder the noise gets. We've made new friends and lost old ones, but most importantly, we're still standing strong and from the looks of it, we won't be backing down soon. I was blindsided though and the most powerful became the powerless; I was fighting a war no longer fit for me but I still had my family behind my back, supporting me with every bone in their aching bodies. We still had a fight to finish and there was another war I was waging with myself, that of blood and bonds I'd never thought I'd have to choose between. In the end, none of this matters unless we find the man who started this all. The man who stripped me of my dignity, my fame; I'd win this war even if it stole the last, dying breath from my lips. At least I'd go down fighting for what I knew was right.Complete
The Marquess of Winchester
Amelia's been on the streets since she can remember. She was abandoned by her mother on the doorstep of an orphanage run by nuns and was later thrown out of there too due to her unruly and 'unladylike' behaviour. She's been surviving on the streets for many years, stealing for food, rummaging in bins for clothes, scraps of metal or wood, which she uses as makeshift appliances, decorations and weapons. She's had a tough life, but it's made her into the strong, independent and fiery woman she is today. Ezra Beaumont, marquess of Winchester and future Duke, although thanks to his arrogance and narcissistic tendencies, he was sent to work down in the village with the local breadmaker in an attempt to humble him and make him a better person and better ruler by his parents the current Duke and Duchess of Winchester. Amelia's been trying to find her mother for as long as she can remember but all she has is a name. What neither Amelia nor Ezra knew, was that that name would connect them in a way neither would've ever imagined. She finds someone so broken under that cold exterior that she can't help but want to help him. They get thrown into a world of witches, wizards and magic and evil. They set off on a journey to become some of the most powerful witch and wizard to ever live, in order to defeat a great evil. Along the way, they recruit five other individuals each experienced in a different area of magic. Who will love and who will hate? Who will even live to tell the tale? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is my first draft, I've edited it along the way but the more I revisit and edit the better it wil get.

Wings (boyxgirlxboy) {Completed}
I stepped back from the door as a kick knocked down the door. The guy did not have time to react as I ran towards him and hit him in the back of the head with a baseball bat. Blood splattered on my face but it was not enough blood for it to kill the guy but enough to knock him out. Cold. Such a pity. Screams echoed from the girls and the guys sat frozen, unsure of what to do. Another followed and another. I knocked out three guys before they caught me and cuffed my hands and my feet enough so I could walk but could do nothing more. My class sat frozen as one guy held a gun on them. The guy holding me looked towards the guy by the door as he struggled to keep me still. ---------- Kathrine 'Kat' Bull is a badass girl who will fight for anything she believes is right.

[Just so everyone that reads this book knows, I have made the decision to just leave this book to rest. I won't edit it ever probably and no future sequels are even on the horizon. Therefore, the book will feel incomplete at the end as the sequel would've filled the gap between the last chapter and the epilogue, as well as filling the New Moon gap with mainly original content as I would've had her not be in Forks during New Moon. But I want to focus on writing my own original books, so I will probably never revisit this book to edit it, or at least not anytime soon! Sorry for anyone who is disappointed so if you read, just don't fully judge it too harshly please.] ❝I am not my hair. I am not my skin.
