(18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT) "Attract a lot of attention, huh beautiful?" His voice hit me like a wall, absurdly catching me off guard. It was deep, sensual, something any girl (or boy) could melt over. I was sort of speechless, yet trying my best to appear unafflicted. "Only the wrong ones." That was definitely drunken me talking, as I didn't usually have that much confidence. His lips twitched up into a smirk, expressing that he understood my comment. "Does that mean that I'm in that category?" My palms began to grow sweaty and my heart rate picked up, but otherwise my body remained relaxed, appearing completely fine. It similar to when you're on autopilot, completely withdrawn due to intoxication. "I suppose not," I crossed my arms, putting on this seductive persona just for him. This fueled his smirk, about to murmur another comment before I cut him off. "You'll have to show me, though." *** Amelia Hollis was a 23-year-old writer at one of the local publishing companies, assisting a very handsome man and writing articles left and right. Her and her best friend, Aviary, lived together in a cute little apartment off the central part of the city, yearning to create new memories and important moments. Amelia always lived for the moments, taking in every little detail and savoring it like it was her favorite meal. She was an optimist, hoping to change peoples lives with her dreams. James Vallette was a 34-year-old CEO, building his company from dirt with the help of his brother. He was a realist, not really having time to deal with dreams or even love. He knew this the night he laid eyes on Amelia. It was only casual; what harm could a one-night stand do? Oh yeah, he's her dad's boss.

Through everything, she is forced to move across the country to Beacon Hills, California and restart her life. There she will have to keep her secret, but it proves more difficult than she thought when a certain teen wolf catches her attention. Will she keep her secret? Will she get out alive? Find out in this story of bravery, werewolves and romance. Sorry it's so cheesy, I don't really know how to summarize it without giving to much away. I do not own Teen Wolf or any of it's characters.

**THE FULL VERSION OF THIS BOOK IS AVAILABLE IN RADISH. DOWNLOAD THE APP IN APPLE STORE/PLAY STORE** Synopsis: Vanessa Bennet was in the car when her mom lost her life in a tragic 'accident', with her mom's words 'I'm sorry' burned in her memory. Years later, her boyfriend was murdered. She witnessed all of these deaths, right in front of her. But the worst part is, she survived. Her father blamed her for her mother's death. Their ghosts haunted her dreams. She knew all too well that allowing herself any form of attachments to somebody else would only end up with her, picking up shattered pieces of her heart with bloody fingers. And twice is enough, Vanessa didn't want any more part with that. But then her father sent her to Willacy, Texas to finish the remaining six months of her senior year. She hated her predicament though she couldn't do anything but to agree; for Art School would not be just a dream if she completed this deal her father gave her. And that's where she met Jackson Matthews, the son of the cattle ranch owner where she would spend the rest of her senior year. He's cocky. He thinks he's funny. He is full of himself. But Vanessa couldn't help but admit that Jackson Matthews showed her that there is more to life than loss. He promised he'd catch her if she falls. Now she's just waiting for life to test that promise. However there's more to her mother and boyfriend's death that is yet to be uncovered. Sometimes, secrets are too dark that they are better left alone. But those dark secrets can't stay hidden forever; it would always find its way to visit Vanessa and remind her what loss is, again.

I sense his hands move up to my blindfold and I quickly grab his wrists. "Don't...." I whisper. "You won't like what you see..." Dakini is a sixteen year old girl living in the town of Witherington; but her life is far from normal. Witherington is not your usual town - it's a town where the civilisation is made up of 99% werewolves; aside from Dakini and her mother. Or so the town and school believe. Enrolled in an all-werewolf school at the age of 14, Dakini has to deal with daily challenges ranging from being targeted by the school's top popular group to having to put up with a moody, introverted seventeen year old male who goes out of his way to annoy her and who has, apparently, killed a few werewolves and humans alike in his past due to his short temper. As well as these impossibly difficult social challenges, Dakini has the challenge of having to keep her eyes covered and out of anyone else's sight. Having been born with eyes that are supposed to come with a very powerful and dangerous curse, Dakini must keep her eyes hidden from the rest of the school to avoid discrimination, possible fear and isolation, as well as the government's threat to permanently "remove" any Black Eyed werewolves. So, when she is left with her back against the lockers, and her future hanging on by a piece of cloth; Dakini is forced to look towards one person to help her out and keep her secret... a secret.
