Cheryl Andrews never fit in. 

A social pariah, always at odds with her family, she is everything her perfect high society parents stand against. As much as the nineteen year old despises her mother's constant efforts at changing her however, Cheryl can't tear herself away from the privileges that her name and old money have made out for her.

The life her family offers her, of course, is the only one that she knows. But when a distant uncle dies, leaving her a mansion, some money and a broken mirror, Cheryl realizes this as her one chance to prove herself. 

Move into this new home, she will, just to show her parents and boring older sister that she really is capable of surviving the big bad world all alone. But the mansion and the money come with strings attached and after just a few days, Cheryl understands that there is more to the will then meets the eye. 

"There are far worse things than death, little one," the woman told me. "Far worse things."

Fourteen-year-old Edison Green may be a genius, but he doesn't have a clue about what to do on his first day of high school. After being homeschooled until age 9 and then starting college courses, Edison doesn't have any experience with kids his own age. His parents believe he has a rare gift and they don't want him to be distracted by the menial problems of teenagers; instead, they want him to focus on his research project, which could be the next big breakthrough in physics. Edison loves physics more than anything, but loneliness and curiosity about life outside his world cause him to rebel. He goes on strike, refusing to continue his studies until his parents agree to let him go to high school for one year. Edison isn't worried about high school being hard--after all, he's been invited to join Mensa International--an exclusive club for the top 2% of the world's smartest people. But he finds out quickly that it takes more than a high IQ to traverse the social events and activities at Southton High School. During an unfortunate encounter with the school's most popular athlete, Edison meets Christina Blakely, who saves him from getting pummeled on his first day of school. She is the exact opposite of him in every way. Christina is a soccer phenom who doesn't have time to be friends with lowly freshmen. She's got problems of her own, including a low GPA, which could prevent her from getting a college scholarship. Can Christina achieve the impossible-the highest GPA she's ever had--and earn her scholarship? And can Edison prove to his parents and everyone else-including Ashley Murray, the most beautiful girl he's ever seen-that he can do more than solve difficult math problems? Can he really change the world with his research project, win Ashley's heart and survive high school?
She Belongs to Me by NeeksNeika
22 parts Ongoing
Eleanor Montgomery has always known what she wants-success, independence, and a future free of distractions. Fierce, determined, and a straight-A student, she keeps her head down and her heart locked away, refusing to entertain the idea of relationships. Love, in her eyes, is nothing but an unnecessary complication. But Daniel Monteiro sees her differently. The heir to one of Italy's most feared mafia families, he's used to getting everything he desires. Women throw themselves at him, craving his attention, but the only one who holds his interest is Eleanor-the girl who refuses to acknowledge his existence. It's not just her beauty that captivates him, but her unwavering focus, her unshakable confidence, and the way she remains unaffected by his presence. Daniel is not the kind of man who gives up easily. He's patient, cunning, and knows exactly how to get what he wants. And what he wants is Eleanor. At first, she resists him, unwilling to let him disrupt the life she's built. But Daniel doesn't just pursue-he infiltrates. He appears where she least expects, forces her to acknowledge the chemistry crackling between them, and slowly breaks down the walls she's so carefully constructed. The more she fights him, the harder she falls. He's everything she shouldn't want-dangerous, possessive, and from a world she has no business being a part of. But desire doesn't follow logic, and the closer she gets, the more she realizes that resisting him might be the biggest challenge of her life. Will Eleanor surrender to the fire between them, or will she risk losing the only man who's ever truly seen her? And when the dark reality of his world threatens to pull them apart, will their love be strong enough to survive?

Growing up in a toxic environment, sixteen-year-old Jay Foster has always had psychological problems, coupled with a quick temper. But one night something happens which finally pushes him over the edge, and as a result, he leaves his house the next morning with two things: his mother's gun and a plan. Living with a neglectful and drug addicted mother wasn't easy for Jay, and it definitely didn't help that his father abandoned the family while he was still a child. He harbored a hatred toward his parents, and that hatred extended to almost everyone and everything around him, producing a very troubled and damaged young kid. As Jay enters high school, he becomes very intrigued with one of his classmates. Kind of obsessed, actually. Her name: Mikayla Keeler. Mikayla is very unique, and like Jay, she doesn't seem to fit in with her contemporaries. Instead, the two of them keep each other company, and their friendship very quickly escalates into a romantic and intimate relationship. Despite having Mikayla, Jay's troubles continue to burden him. He and Mikayla are fighting habitually, his home life is still unbearable, and his time at school is hardly any better, made worse by a bully named Calvin. Their mutual dislike of one another leads to a lot of hostility, routinely leading to Jay being sent to his school's principal. One confrontation in particular goes much too far, resulting in Jay's expulsion from school. With everything seemingly piling up, Jay is very close to his breaking point, and late one night he is blindsided by the unthinkable, pushing him much too far and effectively planting in his mind a cruel and horrific plan for revenge.
