I watched the water, scanning it for the millionth time.  There were no ripples, no sign of life other than the occasional cricket. I bit my lip, staring out over the waves. 
"Where are you?"
Sighing, I turned away, making my way back over the rocks. 
A splash echoed behind me, and I gasped. Spinning around to face the water-
I lost my balance. 
I'm falling. 
I felt my head hit a rock, and everything went black.

Zoe Alabaster has based her entire life on a moment in her childhood: when she saw a selkie. She now works as a cryptozoologist, trying to prove the existence of creatures humans never believed possible. Her first research project, the one that will change everything? Finding proof of the selkie she saw as a young child. 
She never expected to really find proof. 
And she definitely never expected to fall in love with the creature she's dreamed of finding her entire life. 
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Just to clarify, this is a story about a lesbian zoologist and a (bi? lesbian? pan? who knows) selkie girl. Have fun reading!

In one swift movement of my hand I reached behind Sapphire's neck and released her hair from the low ponytail it was in. She gasped at my action and looked at me with feverish eyes. I thought I saw the colour gold flicker in her eyes, for a few seconds before I lifted my hand near her face and tucked a strand of her wavy hair behind her ear, before I said: "I fell in love with you, the first second I saw you reading that Tolstoy book in the library." She looked up at me, her warm beige skin looked like it was glowing now and she said with pure sincerity in her eyes "per sempre, in ogni dimensione, per sempre in ogni vita, solo tu fino al mio ultimo respiro amore mio" It meant (Forever, in every dimension, forever in every life, only you until my last breath, my love) I snaked my hands around her waist and pulled her close to me. Before kissing her the way I wanted to all this time, i looked into her eyes and said "Me too my love, me too." My first novel is about soulmates. And reincarnation. About, how many bodies a soul has to live in before they finally become their true selves. And before they finally get to be with their soulmate. It's about how love has so many faces. It's about how we never know what roads life will force us to cross. And what emotions we will be gifted to feel. And the things we're blessed with that sometimes we neglect. It's about giving yourself the time to grow and evolve before you give yourself to someone completely. And it's about not to take the love you have in your life for granted.

The banging starts again but this time a lot louder. I can hear the girls screaming up stairs. I pick up my phone and dial 911. "Hello this is 911 what's your emergency?" "There are a bunch of wolves outside my house. I think they have rabies or something I'm not sure." The banging gets louder and I can feel my face getting wet from the tears. "Mamm did you say wolves are there?" "Yes Yes there are wolves about 10 of them out here in my front yard. I need help!" I hang up the phone and sit on the end of the stair case. I close my eyes and start praying. Something I haven't done in a while. "I have faith, there is a god. I have faith, there is a god, I have faith, there is a god." I repeat over and over. The glass breaks and I start screaming. I stand up and try to scramble up the stairs. The door comes falling down and there are about 10 wolves standing in front of my door. A woman emerges and walks toward me. She snaps her fingers and the pretty brown wolf is in front of me. Right there by my face. "Ridanna you know what to do." Her teeth is wrapped around my neck and she sinks them in. I try to scream but it's hard to. At first it hurts but now the pain no longer exists. I feel like there is no such thing as pain and I feel light as if I can float off the Earth. Fine as hell white boy with a pro-black activist fall for each other. Cherise Miss Activist doesn't want to date Zaire the fine as hell white boy not for his race but for his secrets. What if he had a past he didn't tell you about and the only way you found out is because the past came to kill you? And I'm not talking werewolves and vampires. Cherise would only wish for problems for they would be so simple compared to hers and Zaire's. If any woman found out Zaire's secrets they'd take off running to the nearest police station or they end up in a body bag in the end. Depends....which will come first?

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused.

¤¤¤¤ You'll never know what could possibly happen here in our world. You'll never know what can attack you in the darkness. Even simple myths can be real. Some believe in them, some do not. I'm Jammie Blue Lee, a sixteen year old girl that believes in monsters. They all call me "Blue". ¤¤¤¤ The moment I settled my eyes on her, I knew she was the one for me. Not the cliché kinda thing but what can I do? Her soft skin, brown wavy long hair, brown eyes, small pink lips, long smooth legs and curvy body is enough to make me think dirty things that I'll do with her once I settle my fingers on her. And let's not forget about her strong aura. The feeling you are in grave danger once you look at her, is what I feel when she looks at me. I'm Jeydon Red Sai. The only guy that Blue will have for the rest of her eternity. ▪▪▪▪▪▪ Alright peeps! Second shitty ass freaking Book. XD This story involves mature contexts and swearing.
