"Summer of 2006, Anna Lee Winston was reported missing, last seen with her younger sister and a neighborhood boy. Reportedly dabbling in a black magic book, this could have caused this young girls disappearance, the two kids being the only subjects" That was the very moment my life crumbled within my hands.
Life is a tedious thing. You spend a long time not being a twinkle in a eye. Then you spend more years being a spic of dust from the era you lived in. You get only 100 years to make your story,
"But what does it mean to die before you even write the first paragraph?" This is the question of 17 year old introvert, Kalila, who'd always been content with her sister's disappearance from painful months of her being gone, months of being blamed.
This changed when a mysterious, and quiet upperclassmen named Zale saved her life from a mythical beast inside of the very book that'd killed her sister. Only for him to bring her on the journey of her lifetime, to find her long lost family

[ FINISHED - unedited ] ❝How do I... How do I stop them?" "You want to stop them?" Rachel raised an eyebrow. "Yes," I nodded. She immediately broke out into a high-pitched laugh. "Oh Laura, you can't.❞ Every prestigious high school has this. A group of people that are somehow, in some way "ranked" higher and superior to the other students. But at Redwood Academy, the system is a little different. Considering there is a wider range of students, the poor to the rich, you're ranked on how feared you are, despite the fame, money, family, or talent you have. Tao Kingsbury and Isaia Woods are quite high on this ranking system. And that's where they intend on staying. So tell me how some new bitch named Laura shows up out of the complete blue, not a background or dollar to her name, and is quickly climbing the social rank? And tell me why the only people who truly fear her are the ones that are feared themselves?

Checkmate
The High Class of Europe. Or should I say the vampires? Everybody knows they exist, yet it is an unspoken rule to stay silent about them. You wouldn't want to risk one of them hearing you talk bad about them. The punishment for something as simple as that is unspeakable. The Vampires have built an empire from the dirt of London and have reigned for thousands of years. They continue to drag terror everywhere they step. Now in every high class, there's the low respected, middle of the pack, and the elites. Obviously, none are as interesting as the Elites of society. The cremé of the crop. Allow me to introduce you to Zara Delcour, Kaspian Auclair, Mackenzie Rousseau, and Nox Toussaint, the most powerful young adults of them all. And the great thing is? They're not going anywhere. But people are always looking for the next best thing or the next biggest deal. Alliances are formed. Threats are made. And it's all one big game of chess. + Due to harsh imagery, descriptive visuals, possible triggering moments, and certain mature themes in this novel, it is rated MATURE. There will be trigger warnings at the start of the chapters where mature scenes are held for those of you who would prefer to skip over them! (I cannot guarantee that you won't miss something crucial to the novel in those scenes.)Complete

Astral Legacy Book 1
Kale had been out taking his dog out for a final bathroom break before heading to bed when he saw it. A ball of light flashed brightly in the sky followed by a crashing sound only seconds later. It hadn't hit too far from his grandmother's house he was looking after for the weeks coming. He had taken the dog back inside and grabbed a hoodie from the coat rack. It wasn't strange for him to take late night walks when he was visiting. He headed toward where he was sure he'd find the meteor thinking it'd make a pretty cool decoration for his coffee table. As he walked toward it he couldn't help but notice how quiet the night had gotten. There wasn't even the usual crickets or frogs chirping. That was when he heard it. A guttural cry of something nearby, he wasn't sure if it was an animal at first but by the end of the sound, he was sure it was a man. He hurried his pace regretting having left his cell phone on the counter by the door. Hoping he wasn't going to find someone seriously injured or even dead. A current original work in progress an adventure inspired by Mass Effect and Star Trek (which will become more evident in later chapters) started out as a Black Panther fan fiction in the early stages but evolved into my own story before I started writing.

The Painting
"It took me five seconds to fall. The impact on my chest jarring my body but not my mind. I suppose this is the point where your life is supposed to flash before your eyes as time itself freezes - and it did in a way. But I didn't relive my life physically like walking through an old memory, déjà vu in each step. It was a feeling, something that started in my chest and spread to my fingertips, one so unique to me that it encapsulated each significant event into one single second." For as long as May can remember one mystery has haunted her world. A dirty window before her, the grim obstructing her vision, she has lived with a loss she can't identify - that is until one rainy night. Gradually the spots of dirt May scratched at for so long wipe away with the touch of a finger. But when she looks in will she like what she sees - or will curiosity kill the cat?Complete
