Spade Donahue has always been unlucky. Nothing seems to go right for the poor boy. He has an "it's complicated" motto. Well that's true. His past didn't treat him well, so he's decided to look out for number one. You can't get hurt if you're looking out for yourself. Right?

Elijah Kinston. He just so happens to stumble upon Spade, at a party. Sure, it's overrated. And so what? Spade is just another bad boy who seems cool and acts like a douche bag. But Elijah takes an interest in Spade when he sees what's below the partying, cold mask. He decides to offer Spade a job working for his family. After all, Spade should be afraid of him.

"Please? I'll make you a counter offer."
"Are you trying to bribe me...?"
"Shut up and listen!" Elijah took a moment to think over his options.
"I'm listening!" Spade threw his hands up in disbelief. "Tells me to shut up, then stops talking... son of a bitch..." He muttered angrily under his breath.
"What if I offer you a job? Work for my family. I'll pay you. You'll have your own room to stay in."

Welcome to the future, written in the past. A mutant plague has rendered part of the population as zombie-like humanoids. They have a conscious mind though, but their craving for brains is a bit of an antisocial issue. Being mostly made up of impoverished individuals, it is not surprised that they got cured cheaply and lastly, despite being the main test subjects. Lochlyn is their representative. She just wanted an education beyond elementary school. A little luckier stricken part of the infected population evolved into reverents. Reverants have a feudal system over the zombies to "keep them in order". The luck may have had to do with them being upper-class when being treated. Basilica is their representative. At eighteen, she wanted body modifications, a job, and etc... as a rite of passage entering adulthood. At least that's what she was thinking. The more she was told no, the more she wondered what she could do. There are still uninfected humans left in the U.S.A. Most of them are middle-class. Katrina is their representative. She gained a family member, but lost two. She aches to find out why she can never return home again. The three eighteen-year-old females, along with their beaus, journey for truth, equality, justice, restoration, love, and freedom lead them to the same end: the capital.

Not your average rejection story, usually the boy does something stupid and keeps being stupid and the girl forgives and forgets and gets pulled in by the mate bond - ignoring all his transgressions because 'the bond said too'. Not this time, sometimes fate got it wrong and sometimes you grow out of things; like love. Vivian Clark is a mostly normal girl, as normal as you can be when you're more than eccentric mother is the head of a coven of witches. Something that; according to her, is a long standing tradition and more people need their apothecary than Viv realizes. While Vivian practices magic and identifies as a witch, it's more of a religion than a lifestyle. She doesn't know there are very real powers laying dormant in her bloodline, and very real creatures that not only lurk in the night but often lurk on her doorstep. Trevor Erikson a hot shot jock, playboy, and Mr. Popularity, he could have any girl he wants and often does. Going from one to another and enjoying every minute of it. Besides the fact that he's a werewolf and an alpha's son, he could care less about fated mates or a luna for his pack when he eventually takes it over at the end of the school year. He doesn't take it too well when his fated mate shows up unannounced, and does what any asshole would do. He rejects her at first sight. How will the two manage with a rejection floating between them for the remainder of the school year? ************************************** A fast-paced romance with mature scenes, all based in a fantasy world. If that's your vibe this is your story to read. This is my second work and I had to get it out of my brain cause it's all I could think of while writing a completely different book, there will be slow updates.

I opened my dull eyes to see him, his eyes held anger until he saw mine. His dark black eyes turn to his gentle blue orbs. His hand cherished my check, whipping the lone tear that I didn't notice falling. "Did you think I would hurt you kitten?" He gently questioned as he rubbed circles on my tear-stained cheek. I hate him, I hate him! When I didn't answer he quickly stood up and looked down at me. "I will never let anyone harm you, I could never hurt you. You are mine. You are my kitten!"

Dean chokes on his drink when he sees her and Bela watches him warily. Sam looks at his girlfriend and wears the biggest smile. "Kind of dramatic for the occasion, don't you think?" Bela asks. Elena walks up to the gang. "Sorry I'm late. I couldn't find anything to wear so I found this at an old boutique." She says. "You look...beautiful." Sam says. Elena does a curtsy. "Thank you. Would you like to dance?" She asks Sam. "I would love to." Sam offers his arm and she takes it. Dean finishes his drink. "I'm gonna need a couple more of these." He says as he grabs another champagne. "Careful." Bela says. "You can't be drunk in the job." "Who cares?" Dean says as he downs another drink. He watches Sam and Elena dance, squinting.

"Let's go for a party." They said. "It'll be fun." They said. Well my best friends were so wrong. So very very wrong... My world literally turned upside down after that one night. It was supposed to be my first High school party and it was the day before my 18th birthday and in case your wondering, my birthday is on Halloween. Pretty cool right? Not. At the stroke of midnight like Cinderella or some shit, my powers were unlocked. And get this... I'm a witch. And there's this evil demon lady called Lilith who my mom and dad locked up in the depths of hell that is hell bent on killing me for some reason (pun intended) and I have seven days to find a way to stop her. Urgh! The only positive thing about this is that Lucas, the son of Lucifer, is helping me, along with his wolf familiar Sydney. I may be catching feelings for him and I think he feels the same. I'm Melody by the way. #5 in princeofhell #8 in familiars #10 in portals
