Tori has always known her parents were capable of horrible things. She's witnessed it first hand since she was a child. She's terrified of her parents and not just because of what they can or will do to her but of what they do to the people around her. 

Though things are heating up with the guys romantically, they keep making decisions without her. Decisions that put all of them even more at risk than they realize. Once everything begins to implode the guys finally start to realize that Tori needs to be a part of the decision making. But will they reach this conclusion in time to stop the devastation and destruction of her parents before it tears them apart?

**This story is a fan fiction that was inspired by Cl Stones Academy Series (if you don't know her you should give her a read). The characters and plots in this particular spin off are my own but CL Stone reserves the rights to the Academy.

The Bird That Couldn't Sing (GBFF) by tori_maye
60 parts Complete Mature
{Completed} A lost soul in a sea of anguish and confusion, Sang floats alone, and the treacherous waters around her are starting to consume her; she's beginning to sink. In fact, she's been slowly sinking further and further into those dark depths since she was a child--ever since the abuse began. Ever since her voice was stolen by her stepmother-a jealous, envious woman who wanted what Sang Sorenson had-what the evil woman hadn't: a voice like an angel. Sang's voice is gone, the only thing she ever truly cherished. And she's starting to drown in the waters that have been rising rampantly inside her chest, but can she be saved? Is there hope for a rescue boat? Can a group of nine handsome, loving, charismatic boys be the reason Sang Sorenson rises to the surface? Will they be her life jacket, or an anchor to drag her further into the profound depths below? Can the bird without a voice finally sing once again? ❤ This is an Academy fanfic. I don't own any of these characters. They are all creations of the amazing C.L. Stone, and they all belong to her. Though, you don't have to read 'The Academy' series to understand this book. It can definitely be read as a stand-alone. ❤ Warning! Be warned, there is mature content in this book (i.e. most likely sexual content, swearing, and abuse). So, if you're uncomfortable with that, then don't read this. Also, this book will get worse before it gets better. (It starts off pretty sad.) But there is a happy ending and LOTS of love! 😉😁

Your prospects are limited when you don't exist, but Sang Sorenson has been getting by as a cashier in a grocery store after dropping out of high school. Most days, she's just glad to have some independence, but she's been drifting through her life for two years, too alone to realize she's lonely. Then, late one Sunday night someone comes through her line with more apple pie than one man should be able to eat. The next day, she finds herself helping a young girl with a ...delicate purchase that the girl's older brother and his friend can't handle. And after a close call at home, she seeks help at a diner that recently opened down the street. It's been over a year since the Blackbourne team shattered into three separate teams, and they've all been dealing with the aftermath of a broken family. Though the new Lee and Taylor teams have done well for themselves, things just aren't the same. Then Sean stops by a little mom-and-pop grocery store after a long shift and discovers their bakery section. Kota and Nate take Jess bra shopping, and the cutest girl they've ever seen intervenes when they are less than helpful. And Luke finally meets someone who values pancakes as much as he does...possibly more. And it's barely even Tuesday. ~oOo~ This is a reverse harem fanfic based on C.L. Stone's Ghost Bird series. Be warned, I don't do trigger warnings on individual chapters and this is a Ghost Bird story: there is physical and emotional abuse, implied and overt; there are nine men interested in one woman (#whychoose) and sometimes each other; and the language used is appropriate for mature readers only. Not my circus, not my monkeys. I don't own any of these characters, The Academy, or Charleston, SC. I'm not making any money off of this. Liberties were taken with the legal and medical professions, but I tried to be as accurate as possible.

"You know that person you see who stands to the side at dances or parties? The one you automatically overlook because they're either shy, nervous, or just plain weird? That's me." With no friends to call her own and a popular, older sister who wants nothing to do with her, Sang is a loner. An introvert by heart, she's shy, clumsy, and socially awkward at best. Some people consider her an "outsider" while others don't even know she's there; she's invisible to the world and she's content in it staying that way. But while she hides behind her too-big glasses and baggy clothes with her head down, for the first time in forever, someone notices her. They begin showing her what it means to be loved and how family is a choice. ------------------------------------------------------------- This is an AU fanfiction of CL Stone's Ghost Bird + Scarab Beetle series.
