"We're now on the edge of danger; I wasn't sure if it was really there or maybe I was imagining things, but from what had been witnessed and done today, I know we have come ever so closer to the edge."
Stella Galante is an incoming high school freshman, and so far she isn't liking where her future is heading. Her new high school- popularly known as the all-exclusive private school Skyfeller Academy High - wasn't what she wanted. As she is only a resident from the small yet active town of Oakwood, she has trouble finding her place in Skyfeller in terms of grade and social status.
However, when she arrives to this austere school to show her ID to the guard one day, she finds there is a deeper, sinister plot within the school - Skyfeller Academy High is finally waging an actual war on nearby local school Oakwood Senior High, and the students will serve as soldiers. Stella finds herself among new faces when Skyfeller arrives at Oakwood, escaping the invasion among fellow students and disguising herself as a local Oakwood student, rather than tagging along and being in Skyfeller's uncomfortable and ridiculously grosteque uniforms. Every student has secrets of their own, some even more brilliantly surprising than others. Will Stella save her hometown and it's already-divided community from tearing itself apart?
Join Stella, Dex, Reyna, and many other characters as you hear each and every one of their secrets and struggles, and be prepared for the twists and turns at every corner; until we finally reach the Edge of Danger.

(REWRITING) The Skylar Experiment : Coveting
"Three weeks. That's how long I got to have drama-free. I'm not sure what is happening to me or to Oakwood. Nothing's the same since I rolled into town and it just keeps getting weirder. Suspicious agents in suits roam the streets without an explanation. They're staring straight at me. The new Chemistry teacher is NOT who he says he is. I'm doing things I never thought I could. Like, mutant-level things... Lauren, Luc's dead twin sister, hid something from everyone. Something important that may have lead to her demise and that could lead to ours. Hunters are in town. I never knew four words could contain so much dread and terror. I'd rather deal with the Wanderers. I'm on the brink of a breakdown. I need help..." BOOK #2 IN THE SERIES! Ignorance is not bliss... In the wake of ridding Oakwood of Wanderers, other dangers come creeping in and they're somehow linked to Luc's absent twin. The past returns to haunt the mutants in inconspicuous ways. Riley's life is yet again in jeopardy, but this time she's not alone. Luc and his family are all thrown into the teetering balance. More secrets are uncovered. A trap dawns on them all. Invisible threats start crawling from all directions. Who is the real enemy? TW : behaviours of depression and PTSD are displayed. I don't name them, but one of the character will be struggling a lot. It may not be suitable for everybody. Other adult matters are briefly included, but nothing explicit or intense. Rewriting specifications : the main points of the story and end of the book will remain the same, am just going to change a few ways of getting there and adding some extra spice. Feel free to pause the read until the REWRITING sign disappears.Complete
Before The Bad - Volume I
"If I told you my secrets, you would never look at me the same." His fingertips graze my jaw, travelling up behind my ear and into my hair. I let out a soft sigh, unsure of how I feel about all of this. It's all sort of abrupt, but the way my stomach flutters when I'm around him is undeniable. Jaxon inches his face closer and I'm sure he's going to kiss me. Only he doesn't. He shakes his head and steps back, rethinking his choice. And now, he's gone. He's left me, in the empty parking lot of Cardinal Carter, and all I'm left with is the chanting from the field. I turn my head and watch him pick up his pace as he nears his Jeep. He fooled me. Again. Really, I should've never let an old flame burn twice. ---------- If anyone's experienced childhood trauma, it's Stella Blake. In her just fourteen years of life, she's witnessed her abusive, alcoholic father repeatedly beat her mother, saved her mother's life during the last straw, and truly knows what poverty is like. Headed into her freshman year of the prestigious Cardinal Carter Academy, Stella finally feels as if she's better. She knows she is. Her mother and her are doing fine now-financially and mentally. So what could go wrong? Jaxon Spade is the complete opposite. A once good boy turned Juvenile, the Junior carries an immense secret. One that he's sure will dethrone him as king. Jaxon is set to be the heir of the Canadian Mafia, also known as his fathers company, Spade Industries. Often seen as a rich boy who doesn't understand the ways of survival, he was once declared as Stella Blake's first love. Hiding family troubles of his own, Jaxon emotionally struggles to get by. That is, until he lays his eyes on Stella Blake. Prequel to Good Gone Bad - if you'd like some insight on the characters after their high school experiences, I suggest you read that first.Complete

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.

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.Complete
Paradoxical Attachments
Leora Parakesh has never fit in a box. Be it because she was a brown girl born in England, surrounded by blonde hair and blue eyes as far as you could see, or because of her above average intelligence that had created somewhat of an inflated ego, but maybe it was the constant feeling in her chest that she wasn't where she belonged. She thought her heart belong in the stars, alongside her genius brain. Anjo O'Conner didn't think twice about anything he did, in fact, he would probably bet he didn't think once either. He loved everything about his life, his friends and family, his reputation as his high schools favourite all-star, and his more-than-frequent conquests with the opposite sex.

Ridiculously annoying accent. Read on for their story!! Mature scenes and sensitive topics such as assault, addiction, and alcoholism covered.

I deeply apologise for keeping you all waiting, and left wondering if I was going ahead with this story or not. Sadly, to all of my readers who was looking forward to reading more of my story.
