Autumn had made its way to the little town, coloring the trees red yellow and orange, little leaves gently swirling around in the wind. Slowly, but surely, the temperatures were dropping, each morning the grass was covered with frost, which eventually melted away as the sun spread its wings and covered the fields and woods in its heat. The children of the town were delighted, running around in the forest and chasing everything from leaves to squirrels and throwing rocks into the little river that sweeps through the woods through numerous twists and turns. Old legends tell of arcane creatures that reside in this river, calling out to the children with a beautiful song that is said to lure them down out of curiosity. Of course, these are just old tales, but some of the town's elders still believe it's true. Some even say they've heard the song themselves. The town, which most residents referred to as ''Velleity'', resided far west of the great Arboribus mountains. The inhabitants were an interesting kind, everyone knew everyone and everyone was considered family, except for the outcasts of the town. These were the ones that had committed sin, those who had turned to evil. The outsiders usually migrated to other town's, or settled outside of Velleity. The main character of this story, Ryker, is a teenage boy living in Velleity, dealing with all of lifes difficulties. He's a poet, going out into the forest to write every morning and night to fill his notebook with all his thoughts and ideas and stories and poems. But life really isn't as good as people portray it to be. And one day, he decides to ask the goddesses for help, for a sign to keep going, when things go wrong and he accidentaly summons a demon. But this demon is different, special. And soon enough, feelings that Ryker have never felt before start building up, until they overflow.R

[Book #1 of Twisted Deception] "You people don't know a damn thing about us, don't even speak." **** Everyone knows that high school is always something to dread. GPA, friends, enemies, prom, graduation, everything that you think would make high school good and bad for the future. Now scratch off friends, GPA, prom, and graduation. Why would you scratch them off? Because everything else will be the only thing that's important when you get to this high school. Saint Johnathan Pier is the one high school in the city where everything happens and normally, stuff you wish you didn't see. Everyone warned people about the dangers of the students going there but did they ever mention the people already broken by it? They were dubbed "the rainbow colors of society" just because they were different from other students in this school. But there's a slight differential between them: four of these students are popular while the other four are normal. While the four populars are seen as "superior, hot, and intimidating", the four normals are seen as "weirdos, weaklings, and irreverent bystanders". Being different from the other kids has always been a struggle for all of them since grade school, but they try to keep that out of mind. But with their dark history following them at every corner, making new friends can't be on their list. Matter of fact, it isn't an option. Especially when their attitudes are what drive people away rather than in. Not like they're complaining though. When these eight students get paired up for an end of the year assignment, they encounter a lot of drama that will test their relationships to the max. What will happen to them? Can they grow comfortable with each other? Can these troubled teens even be friends in the first place? Come along on the journey as these eight try to survive their last year of high school. ⚠️TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️: This contains strong language, mentions of rape, bullying, etc.
