Derant Holmes has lived with his adoptive parents in London his whole life. He's normal. Almost. For some reason, he has the ability to read the mind of any person he touches. Shortly after turning 18, he receives a letter telling him that his birth mother died about a year ago and left her farm to him. Now, he travels to America to live on this farm. Here he finds out that the house was never meant to be his and it was only given to him because his twin sister died a few years back. On top of that, there are strange stories of blood-sucking creatures floating about the town and there seems to be a strange connection between these creatures and his dead sister.... 

~~~~~~~~~ 

Emmalyne Marwick's blood ran cold two years ago. Kidnapped by her now "Sisters", she hunts the forests surrounding the farm she grew up on. Her change has brought some advantages as well as disadvantages. Instead of just being able to shift into objects, she can now shift into plants. She still hasn't been able to figure out how to shift into animals though. Still, she is faster, stronger, and immortal. But that does not always make one happy. Finding out about her mother's death, she knows that she will never be able to own the farm. Everyone thinks she's dead. Soon, news reaches her that her twin brother is coming to take over. This brings envy and anger in her, knowing that she was the one who deserved to run the broken down place. She leaves the forest to seek answers about both her brother, and the dangers lurking beneath the shadows.

Sometimes fate brings you exactly what you need before you even realize it. *** Brigid Kelly has lost everything and no amount of spells or wishes stopped it. After her Gran fell ill and passed away, Brigid wasn't able to keep her grandmother's metaphysical shop going. With everything crashing down around her, Brigid buys a one-way ticket to the land of her ancestors, hoping to find solace in the old cabin where her Gran grew up. Ireland is everything she was always told it was and then some. As she sorts out the slowly declining house in the woods, she's thrust into the path of handsome Torin Boyle by circumstance. The walls she's built up around her heart are slowly chipped away as Torin reveals pieces of himself as well, opening not only his home but his heart too. Torin Boyle has spent the last thirty-odd years living in the North of Ireland, running through the rolling hills with his friends. As a pack of wolf Shifters in a country that has no natural wolves, Torin has learned to keep a tap on his inner emotions to protect those he loves. But his homeland is dying; small patches of forest turning brown and dry. When a witch appears on his family's land out of nowhere, he's concerned that the witch is to cause for what's been happening to the land. He never expected to feel pulled into her orbit so completely. Brigid's idyllic life comes to a halt when Torin's father falls ill, closely followed by other members of the Shifter's family. The land around them - the very land where Brigid's ancestors lived - is dying. If Brigid and Torin can't figure out how to fix it, she might not be the only one losing those she loves. **Trigger Warnings - mentions of hospitals and death/cancer; loosing loved ones**

When Jordan Parrish was drawn to the small town of Beacon Hills, he never expected to find the existence of the supernatural there. He never intended to find out that he was supernatural there. And he especially didn't expect to find her there. Angie Stilinski is the fiery daughter of the Sheriff, and the last person he was ever expected to kiss, much less fall in love with. But when she turns out to be the only person able and willing to help him discover what he is and how to control his powers, Jordan discovers that he has absolutely no control over how he feels about Angie. Similarly, Angie Stilinski has been through a lot, more than maybe even the Hale's some might say. And her past has left her guarded to everyone but her father, baby brother and childhood best friend, at least until Jordan comes around. But despite their ability to always find each other and a connection neither one can explain, in a town like Beacon Hills, there's no such thing as a fairytale happy ending. #1 in jordanparrish #1 in derekhale #2 in scottmccall #2 in hunters #5 in stilesstilinski #5 in teenwolf #9 in allison #25 in hellhound #26 in action-adventure #31 in mates (Teen Wolf: seasons 3B-6B) (Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters or plotlines.

Most impressive rank: 1 - Fairytale *** Casey is all alone in the werewolf world, the only family she has left is her crazy dad. her mum died of cancer, causing her dad to go crazy and start beating Casey. What's worse is that she can't get away from the violence because when she goes to school they do the same. *** I close my eyes so I could listen and smell everything in case this was the last time I would ever be in this beautiful forest. I chase away any bad or worried thoughts because this place seemed so sacred it did not allow them. I breath in and catch the sweet scent of lavender flowers that speckled the ground in little clumps and the dry smell of dirt that hadn't been rained on in a couple of day. I listen to the steady titters of birds as they fly from tree to tree, collecting little twigs and leaves to build their nests with. I listen to the buzz of the bees greedily feasting on the flowers that scattered around the dry forest floor. I open my eyes to take in the scenery, rays of sunlight filter through the green canopy, penetrating through the leaves and casting a green-yellow effulgence over the ground that wavers as the trees rustle in the light whispers of wind. The crunching of dry leaves under my feet alert me so I cast my eyes to the floor and watch as I step on each individual leaf and dry twig, enjoying the snapping sounds that echo through the near silent forest. Gnarly roots dip into ground and twisted branches reach down, fingers grasping the air, as if reaching for me and I shiver, thinking of my father. I cast my eyes up to think of something else and instantly calm as another puff of breeze rustles the leaves on the trees and ground gently. I look ahead and notice the steady thinning of the old trees and run towards it, loving the feeling of the air in my air and clothes. I spot what I think is light dancing on waters surface and sprint for it. Then I break through the trees, making it to the lake.
