"They are so... dead," Theara look up from her bloodied hands and grabbed a fistfull of her hair as she shuddered. "I killed them?" she angled her head as she observed her classmates' corpses with fascination. "I know this looks bad Levi, but I had to do it."

"No, you really didn't," he clenched his jaw in attempt to hold down his rage as he leaned down to close his best friend's eyes. His icy blue eyes narrowed as they searched her pale green eyes skeptically. "There is no way you can sugercoat what you just did, Theara. And then on top of it all, your excuse is nothing short of crazy. You're a murderer."

She wanted to argue, but the evidence spoke for itself. She was a mess. Vulnerable. Fragile had never been so lethal. And she was had the audacity to enjoy her new found, murderous power.


                              ◇ ◇ ◇ 

The quaint lake town of Old Linden's skeletons come tumbling out when Moss Vale's anomalies start leaking out in the broader society and wreak havoc on life as they knew it. 
On the outside she looks like the every day teenager just trying to survive the last year of school, but in reality Theara Carter is genetic tampering at its worst, a by product of greed, science and miscalculations.

[Vᴏʟᴜᴍᴇ 1 - Cᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ] Evelyn White was born with a gift - or rather, a curse: the first time she touches someone, she sees when and how that person dies. Meeting new people is sickening. Walking through a crowd is hell. Not to mention that when she opens her big mouth to tell people what's going to happen to them, most treat her like she's crazy - even after she saves their lives. But meddling with the future has consequences, and Death is not all there is to fear. As Evelyn races to find a way to save the new transfer student from being murdered, a voice starts whispering in her ear. Someone or something lurks in the shadows. Watching. Waiting. Trying to get close using mind games and tricks. It knows about her powers. It knows she can change Fate - and it's not alone. ------------------------------------------- This book is written in Australian English and uses British style grammar.

Tainted- affect with a bad or undesirable quality. My past is tainted along with my present, My future is tainted me forever a peasant. But worst and most morbidly and treacherous of all, My love is tainted and that will be my final fall. Kira's tainted and undesirable past has damned her future to the depths of fear and hiding. Death follows her around like a stench and seems to consume all of those who she holds too closely, forcing her to keep a safe distance from all around her but her family who is in just as deep as she is. Jesse's tainted and undesirable past has done the exact same thing. His past made protection and care blossom in his chest for anyone who may cross his path. Especially when the new girl and her brother who have a knack for lying begin to catch his attention and his perceptive eyes begin to catch onto their deadly secrets. Keeping secrets is her forte, but soon her brother's new best friend takes an interest in her life and watches her every move, what happens when he catches onto her secrets, will all the pieces start to fall into place and the lies turn into truths? +++ "The name's Jesse," he extends his hand for me to take. I glare down at his gesture and then my eyes slowly travel up his body and soon I get to his dark green eyes which I remember as black but up close I realize now they're a forest green. "What the hell are you doing in my room?" my voice comes out cold and demanding, which seems to entertain him because his smirk turns into a full on grin and he lets out a short laugh. "I was looking for the bathroom and got lost pipsqueak," he grins at me. "Last time I checked my bedroom didn't have a toilet in it now get out," I growl lowly. "Make me."

"He seemed like a puzzle to me, and I really liked solving puzzles. But somehow, I don't think that I would ever be able to solve this one." Amelia Heart, with her large smile and her infectious laugh, is what most people would think has the perfect life. They would watch as she went back to her beach house, as she went out of her way to stop and chat to her neighbours, as she would get the perfect grades. She was everything you wanted to be, and yet nobody had gotten close enough to her to understand her life in this small town at all. When her plans of leaving suddenly change, and she is forced to start attending the local school, her life takes a route that she hadn't accounted for. A new group of friends, a chance at a normal teenage life, even a potential love interest - things that Amelia had never even thought about happening after everything she'd been through. But happiness is only temporary in her life, and she knew that. It wasn't surprising to her when her past began to catch up with her present, it was simply a good thing that it had taken as long as it had. Things start happening in Amelia's life that simply don't make sense, even to her. They do say you should always keep an eye over your shoulder, especially when you know you're being hunted, but for Amelia, even an eye in every direction wouldn't be enough. Time begins counting down, fast. Did she want to involve her friends? Could the new people in her life be trusted? She wouldn't have long to make a decision. Not before her world comes blazing down, the final battle on the horizon. Tick, tock, Amelia. You don't want to be late to the party when you're the guest of honour. COMPLETED 06/11/20

"Three weeks. That's how long I got to have drama-free. I'm not sure what is happening to me or to Oakwood. Nothing's the same since I rolled into town and it just keeps getting weirder. Suspicious agents in suits roam the streets without an explanation. They're staring straight at me. The new Chemistry teacher is NOT who he says he is. I'm doing things I never thought I could. Like, mutant-level things... Lauren, Luc's dead twin sister, hid something from everyone. Something important that may have lead to her demise and that could lead to ours. Hunters are in town. I never knew four words could contain so much dread and terror. I'd rather deal with the Wanderers. I'm on the brink of a breakdown. I need help..." BOOK #2 IN THE SERIES! Ignorance is not bliss... In the wake of ridding Oakwood of Wanderers, other dangers come creeping in and they're somehow linked to Luc's absent twin. The past returns to haunt the mutants in inconspicuous ways. Riley's life is yet again in jeopardy, but this time she's not alone. Luc and his family are all thrown into the teetering balance. More secrets are uncovered. A trap dawns on them all. Invisible threats start crawling from all directions. Who is the real enemy? TW : behaviours of depression and PTSD are displayed. I don't name them, but one of the character will be struggling a lot. It may not be suitable for everybody. Other adult matters are briefly included, but nothing explicit or intense. Rewriting specifications : the main points of the story and end of the book will remain the same, am just going to change a few ways of getting there and adding some extra spice. Feel free to pause the read until the REWRITING sign disappears.

"I saw everything: the blood on his hands, the craze in his eyes... I saw the stars above reflect purple from his hair; he was certainly not the Vincent I knew. I saw the fear of the girl aside me, I heard the terror in her scream. I saw those beings... Lights. I observed the defiance of what I've believed in for my whole life... All because of you." She chuckled as the chain on my ankle felt icy against my skin. "Yet, you never realized your eyes were closed this whole time." This story was inspired by series like Higurashi/Umineko: When They Cry and Danganronpa; and some bands like Valiant Hearts and Starset. This is a work of fiction that sometimes contains the topics of detailed explanations of murder/self-harm, nonreligious characters/events, any kind of abusive behavior, mental illnesses, and arguably weirdo characters. Reader discretion is advised! (This isn't a fan fiction... I hope.) Cover by my dearest friend @heleinaz72. Special thanks to @Aargonie for helping me with the plotting and staying positive.
