Chase "Numbers" Hewkin is the textbook definition of a high school loser: hopelessly introverted, a genius at math, and fanboy-obsessed with Juliana VanderSchee, the teenage crown princess of the tiny European country of Arcana and a fellow math prodigy. What distinguishes him from the rest of the geeks in the world is quite simple: he can tell you the exact probability that any event whatsoever will occur... down to the nearest hundredth of a percent.

When Princess Juliana is announced as the keynote speaker at a STEM convention not far from Chase's hometown, he has his heart set on attending. No sooner than he leaves for the convention, his parents are abducted by a probability-warping terrorist group known only as the Jackers. Blaming himself for not being there to protect them, he sets out on a mission to rescue them: a mission that will take him to the heart of the Order of Chance, the Arcanese organization headed by Juliana herself dedicated to stopping the Jackers. Discovering his own family's deep involvement in the Order, he is sucked deeper into the workings of the Arcanese court. When the shocking truth about the Jackers and their mindless victims, the "Jacked", is revealed, Chase must choose a side in the war that is inevitably coming: his heritage, or the world order Juliana and the Order of Chance have sacrificed everything to preserve.

"What are you doing here?" I ask but it comes out as a sob. I don't want him, or anyone for that matter, to see me like this. I'm a wreck. Wyatt doesn't seem to mind though. He softly brushes the remaining tears from my face with his thumb. "I saw you run out of the canteen, green eyes. I couldn't just leave you here to cry because that would go against the tutor code." "Tutor code?" I ask, puzzled. "Yes, the tutor code. It states that a student must make sure his tutor is never upset or crying and if he does ever find her like this it's his job to make her smile at any cost," he tells me. "You just made that up." "Maybe I did but that doesn't matter. Come on," he says, extending his hand out to me. "Where are we going?" "You'll see." ~*~*~ Aurora is a normal seventeen year old, happy and content with life. However, this all changes the day her boyfriend of two years, James, breaks up with her. Naturally, she's crushed. The icing on the cake is why he did it. Apparently she's 'too boring'. Determined to prove him wrong, she strikes a deal with the school's notorious bad boy, Wyatt King. She'll tutor him in maths if he teaches her to be reckless, fearless and careless. Can Aurora overcome the odds and do what she planned? Or perhaps someone will stop her on her mission to win over James. Maybe this isn't as easy as she thought it would be. Maybe she takes things a little too far. And just maybe making a deal with the bad boy isn't such a smart idea. ~*~*~ *contains mature language* #9 in high school 20/02/19 #1 in young love 14/03/19 #2 in chicklit 27/03/19 #1 in heartbreak 08/04/19 #21 in teenfiction 26/08/20 #10 in romance 26/08/20 #1 in bad boy 02/04/21

No matter what it takes, they will persevere and end the Evil's reign of terror once and for all. Join the Seven Heroes as they battle new foes, meet new friends, and find new love. -- Credit to @FizzySoda_ 's book 'Sevens.' -- I apologize in advance for making this specific YouTuber the villain. I do not hate her, in fact, she is one of my favorite YouTubers ever! I just thought that she deserved the chance to be the villain of the story. After all, the villain is the one who makes a story, a story. What would Percy Jackson be about if Kronos never rose to destroy Olympus? Think about it that way. Still, I love you and this YouTuber! -- Highest Rank: #198 in Fanfiction -- All rights reserved. I do not own these characters. They are people in real life with YouTube channels.
