This story is a follow-up of The Homecoming written by Ray Bradbury in 1946. This story takes place 7 years after the short story when Timothy Elliott has turned 21 years old. His family notices that Timothy has been acting odd lately and embarks on a mission to find out why. If you haven't read The Homecoming, I would recommend doing so before reading this story.
(Also, I do not own the original characters from The Homecoming short. Those characters and the original story entirely belong to Mr. Bradbury and the publishers. I own only my OC's and story line.)

Braced to Bite (Book 1: Half-blood vampire series)
Colby Blanchard had it all… Head cheerleader. Popular friends. Hottest date and a no-brainer for Homecoming Court. Colby’s got a nearly-perfect life – ask anybody. … until she gets bit. Some random vamp gets his fangs into her, and suddenly everything’s different. She’s different. To make matters worse, she’s only a half-blood vampire, not a full one. Now, instead of Homecoming Queen who rules the school, she’s a mongrel of the vampire community – and they’re giving her just one week to justify her existence, or they’ll “relieve her of her undead status”. She gets the feeling that doesn't mean just kicking her out of their clique. And she thought getting into college was going to be her biggest problem. With the clock ticking, Colby has to prove herself by finding the Rogue Vampire who tried to turn her. Colby discovers some unlikely allies – like Thomas, a Vampire Investigator who would be really hot if he weren't the guy most likely to kill her when her number’s up.

Not even death can take her away from me. **Warning this story contains mature language and content, abuse, violence, sex**
Outcast Reject
I was never appreciated for who I was. I was tossed aside and left to rot for a mistake I made many years ago, a mistake that haunted me my entire life. I thought he would be the one to save me, how wrong I was. My story is not an easy one but it is one that shaped me to be the person who I am today. *Extended summary inside* ******** DISCLAIMER... This book was written a while back ago when I was younger and did not understand proper English grammar. It is not the best written book out there but I hope that does not discourage you from reading the book. Although it is not the best, it does have a somewhat decent, yet a little cliche, storyline.Complete
Demons Vampire: A Vampires Journey
This is the sequel to Demons Vampire. If you haven't read the first one you probably should. After five years you would really think you would be over someone but I was wrong on that front. I had left my husband, who I had married at 17 years old, and my family so that I could protect them and they wouldn't have to see me. I'd done some bad things which resulted in my brother being murdered. The person I had become couldn't be loved so I ran from everything. I couldn't leave behind what I had gotten a taste for so I used my new found skills to work for humans, at least those that could afford me, and stay away from the supernatural world as much as I could. *Cover may be subject to change*Complete

Broken
What happens when a human girl has to live with 5 boys who are brothers. It's obvious. She's going to fall in love with one of them of course! But what if I told you the brothers were vampires and they all fell in love with her? This story was started in 2015, and the writing style is completely different from how I write now. I was fourteen when this all started and am so glad to give it an ending. Please bear with me through the first twenty chapters or so, it gets better. I hope you all enjoy this story that I have written.
