To those who believe will achieve. To those who follow will find. To those who notice will define the odds. To those who are destined will find what is rightfully theirs. There will be a price to pay to follow the clues. Those who do must not waver in their faith and will find what was meant to be.

                                                                                                  ...

A smile tells a lot but it can also fool others. Amber Dusten has come to perfect a smile but those who know her know that it's forced. It's like she's forced to live this life that seems dull. Why does the sunshine when it feels like your world is all dark?

The world isn't the same for her. It's cruel and cunning. Her triplet, Auburn got kidnapped all those months ago, life hasn't returned to normal. It's been more than ten months since Auburn has gone missing and she's declared dead. The most mind bewildering thing is that Amber has been seeing Auburn's ghost.

Life will be the same ever again. Amber believed that her family was just another ordinary family. Except they aren't. Not ever since she unlocked her power, after losing the one she loves the most. Her family is the direct descendants of a powerful bloodline that has controlled the whole world since the time began. And still is. Her lineage is a part of The Secret Society. Which she doesn't know until she's held at gunpoint at a local cafe. 

Then there's Lucas, who also comes from The Secret Society. He has lived a pretty fucked up life, nothing he's not used to. He doesn't have any goals or plans for the future. There's just one thing keeping him going, to find the truth that tore his family apart, and to keep surviving and fighting for those he loves that are still here for him.

4 parts Complete Mature
*now available on all retailers* Amber How do you politely refuse when the only guy to star in any of your dirty fantasies has just offered to put you up for the foreseeable future and your brother's just accepted like you were in fact still thirteen and couldn't make decisions for yourself? You don't. And, you end up with a roommate who wears a very good elegant mask over the rough and tumble, bad boy core I remember far too well. Only, it's ten years later and I'm even nerdier than I used to be. It's ten years later and I couldn't look worse. It's ten years later and I can't keep one guy. It's ten years later and my brother still teases me mercilessly in front of him. It's ten years later and Kit somehow looks even better than the guy I spent my formative years crushing on. Except, there might just be a smouldering heat in Kit's eyes that suggests he's not quite as out of my league as I thought. Just maybe, this geek is about to get a whole lot of chaos. Kit When I find out about my best mate's little sister's situation, the offer is out of my mouth before I can stop it; Hawk's like a brother to me even if Amber's never looked twice at me. I could never tell if she was scared of me or hated me. But the deal is done. She's going to bring her bedraggled self upstairs to my penthouse and live with me for as long as she needs. I see the pain she hides away, I see the lack of confidence despite how smart she is, how good. If there's something I've learned, it's that confidence makes all the difference. So, it becomes my mission to help Amber find her confidence. But I find more than confidence in her and suddenly I'm seeing my best mate's little sister completely differently. Except, there might be something in the way she smiles at me that gives me hope I'm not as far out of her league as I thought. It might just be time that this chaos gets a little geek.

Completed "What the hell do you think you're doing?" I asked, glaring at him while he forcefully dragged me out of class. "You told me you need help, and here I am!" Blake yelled. "Where did that come from?! What are you even talking about?!" I screamed at him. "I know you talked to Ryder about your situation. " My eyes widen and I yanked my hands out from his grasp. "I hate you..." I growled and starting to turn around to walk back to class. " You don't mean that... I love you, goddamn it! " He shouted that loud that the students around us stopped what they're doing and looked at us. I stopped walking. Before I can make a move to turn around, he beat me to it and slammed his soft pink lips against mine. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meet Jade Williams, typical fat, nerd, and loner you will meet in the school, but she's not how you depict it.

When both of them get to know each other, their hearts slowly ache, but why? Will they heal? Or is it only one of them? Read it to find out more * Sort of a cliche story * WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE
