Elitehood.
It's a genetic trait. There are two types of elitehood, passive and active. Passive elitehood, the ability to pass elitehood on to your children, is dominant. Active elitehood, also known as true elitehood, is when you have a power or unnatural ability. This is a recessive trait.
Samantha has fiery red hair, brilliant green eyes, and two parents with passive elitehood.
Of course, they don't know that Samantha is an elite. They both assume Samantha is powerless. That, coupled with her unique ability and a few good friends, is how she got away with murder.
A desperate, powerful hero collides with a worldwide organization devoted to evil in this story of good intentions gone wrong.

Morph [EDITING] || Wattys 2017 Winner
"They took my sister. Now I'm taking her back." Seventeen years ago, humans started developing supernatural abilities. Comic books came true as the first person flew, created fire, mind-read. The world entered a new age where people who could do special things were revered and admired. That all changed when one man lost control of his power and unleashed a huge explosion in a crowded shopping centre, killing over a thousand others. A series of fights involving superhumans broke out, resulting in the destruction of multiple cities and hundreds upon hundreds of further lives lost. The government began hunting down those extraordinary people with the assistance of a specialised unit: trained in recognising different abilities. Suddenly powers became something scary, uncontrollable and dangerous, that nobody wanted to own up to having. Seventeen years after the Explosion, Amelie Rose Carmichael is the daughter of the man who is in charge of hunting down and imprisoning these people. She enjoys a comfortable life, protected from any threats against her. But when Amelie develops an ability without warning, she must try to keep it hidden from her family, her friends, and above all her father. Can she keep a secret? Will she use her powers to help the rebel organisation that has approached her? And what secrets are the people around her hiding?

Extraordinary Mistakes
Two opposite sides come face to face, forcing each other to reconsider their version of the truth. *** A minority of the world's population carries a genetic modification. They are called deviants and some develop an ability by the age of seven. In the United States of America, deviants and humans fought each other in the Great War, which ended when the deviants lost. Fifteen years later, everyone lives finally in peace. But when an assassination takes place, it sets in motion several events that put Emily Roberts, the poster child of deviant integration, face to face with Rachel Moore, the leader of the terrorist group for the liberation of deviants. What is the truth and is it worth finding it out? Warning: depiction of trauma / violence / abuse.Complete
The Dormant Mate
Cora Taylor had a good life despite losing her mother when she was young. Her father always showered her with love the best he could. She had great friends who were always there for her. As she grew up, she noticed she wasn't quite normal. She had heightened abilities that no one else had. Hearing, sight, and even had a sense of empathy towards a certain animal, wolves. Maybe it had something to do with the fact she grew up around them or the fact that her father owned an animal clinic and sanctuary. Despite all that, she felt life was pretty normal. That was until her father was killed in a freak accident and she met the infamous Ashford Triplet, Max two years later. Her life would never be the same. Maximus Ashford, part of the infamous Ashford Triplets. He was gorgeous, rich, and everybody wanted him. He on the other hand only had his eyes set on one person, Cora Taylor. What Cora didn't know or even the town for that matter was, Max was a werewolf. Not just any werewolf, an Alpha. When he meets Cora, he starts a change of events that effects both their lives in more ways than one. Some parts may be derogatory towards the LGBTQ, but it is NOT my mind set. It goes with the story and character settings. Started 6/20 Finished 1/21 Uploaded 1/21Complete

The Price of Innocence
"Some ghosts don't haunt to scare you. They haunt to remind you what you lost." Thandi's innocence echoed in every memory she shared with her sister. She's accepted the truth - her sister is gone, and nothing can change that. But everything shatters the moment she sees her again. Alive. Smiling. Real. Now caught between the sister she loves and the man she's come to care for, Thandi must make an impossible choice - one that will teach her that even innocence comes with a price. In a world of power, secrets, and ruthless ambition, every choice has consequences. Loyalties will be tested, hearts will be broken, and betrayal lurks in the most unexpected places. Survival is only the beginning; when nothing is as it seems, even the purest hearts cast the darkest shadows.Complete
Remi's Great Escape (Forestfolk Prequel)
Before he ever met Siena, before he knew Foresthome even existed, Remi was an Aberration living under the iron-fisted rules of his tribe. Learn how a spirited and resourceful 12-year-old boy ousted his Plainsman oppressors in this prequel to the Forestfolk series. A little shoutout to maniacgirl for inspiring the title of this story. Though the events in this short story take place before Book 1 in the series, I recommend reading it AFTER you finish "Siena." I think it will be more satisfying that way, because then you'll understand the little Book 1 references I've planted here and there. Finally, the format of the title and cover for this story is different from the rest of the series. That's because I consider this to be bonus material rather than a continuation of the series. It's only 12 chapters long. I may change the cover at some point, but in the meantime, this is what I have. :)Complete
Siena (Forestfolk, Book 1)
Siena can heal wounds with a touch of her hands. A captive since birth, she is used as a tool of war by a Plainsmen tribe. A chance escape into the forest proves successful... and deadly. Rescued by the Forestfolk--a group of people she always thought were nothing more than bedtime stories--Siena remains on edge. Trust does not come easily when persecution is all she's ever known. Keeping her abilities a secret seems like the right thing to do, until a tragic accident renders two Forestfolk spiraling toward death. If she chooses to reveal her abilities, she risks being subjugated again. Treated as no longer human. Maybe even sent back to the Plainsmen. But keeping her talent to herself means ignoring the injured around her, even allowing them to die. The choice seems obvious to Siena, but living with the repercussions of that choice is another matter altogether. A journey of self-discovery, a bit of adventure, and a splash of romance. On the Wattys 2017 Shortlist!Complete

Long ago, there were cities where people had special abilities, far beyond what normal humans could do. For many generations, they protected their world from evil, standing strong and unbeatable.

Now, their children-the 21st generation-are left to deal with the heavy burden of their parents' past.Complete
