The sky couldn't be seen from the dining room window. All that could be seen was the millions of pearly white butterflies that flew past.

"Butterflies are good luck," my brother said.

And hours later, when all the pretty butterflies were gone, a calmness passed over us. In that moment we were both happy with who we were. And the next day he was gone.
******************************************
Butterflies are good luck?

Madelyn Cott has trouble believing her brother (Asher) committed suicide. She has found some signs indicating that he  was murdered, and is determined to prove this. She investigates  a series of clues, with the help of her love interest (Caspian Gray). Her investigations show Madelyn that while she always thought her brother to be a Robin Hood (someone who looks after the interests of the poor and down-trodden), it seemed that he was  actually a murderer. Discovering that she is living in a world of lies, Madelyn is distraught. She begins to uncover the truth about Asher's girlfriend (Janet Swift) and her role in Asher's death. Along with the secrets that gang leader (Victoria Herim) is hiding, Madelyn needs to find out what her brother's link to Newton Wes is and whether or not Newton is alive. He is the only link she has to her brothers death. Follow Madelyn Cott as she comes to terms with the fact that her beloved brother was not who she thought he was.

"Are you sure you wanna do this?" He asks, his hazel eyes grazing over my tear streaked face illuminated by the moonlight. "I've never been so sure of anything in my entire life." "Carter, this is a big decision. Once you're in, you can never get back out." I wipe my face deliberately as he waits for my answer. No more pain, no more bullying. Maybe this is what I need. A new beginning. A chance to start over. "I want this, Nathan. I want in." I say. He takes me by the wrist and leads me over to his dark motorcycle. Putting his helmet on my head and strapping it under my chin, he stares into my large, brown eyes. "Everything's gonna be fine. I promise." He nods with reassurance as he tucks a curl behind my ear. Another tear escapes my eye and he quickly wipes it away. This is the most sincere Nathan has ever been with me and I feel nervous, but excited. He takes my hands and wraps them around his toned abs before we both sputter off into the moonlight. The applewood California breeze whips my face as we speed down the motorway. This is it. •••••••••••••• Carter Wyatt has just been moved to sunny Pasadena, California with her single dad. After her mother's passing and her older brother's death, things just weren't the same. Starting at a new school with new friends wasn't what she would worry most about. It would be The Bikers---a school gang that just won't stay out of her way. With a handsome and dangerous gang leader and a jealous blonde Biker always on her case, school becomes a tale of sacrifice and endurance, and maybe a little romance if she's lucky. When given the opportunity of a lifetime, will she give in and become a member of one of the most feared gangs in the west or will she stay true to herself and keep out of trouble?

Zay hates her life as an assassin. She'd give it up and run away if she could, but since her family are very skilled at tracking down and killing people, it's probably best she stays. She only has six more years before she turns eighteen and can abandon this life for good. There isn't much to love about being a part of the Reaper Core after all. Sure they were the extremely rich leaders of the infamous Reaper gang that services wealthy neighborhoods in Chicago; but that wealth came with the hard work of murdering for a paycheck. Then there's the whole drama with the Locusts, the sworn enemy of the Reapers who command the poorer areas in southern Chicago. Zay's dad wants them eliminated for good. Zay couldn't care less. Either way she'd still have to go to school the next day and face the isolation that being affiliated with a gang entails. That is, until she meets Ash, a friend who makes life just a bit more normal. But even that doesn't last long. Thanks to him, she now finds herself forced to join the Locusts when she doesn't even want to be a part of the Reapers. Caught between two evils, Zay has to make a choice: to choose the lesser of the two evils... Or to carve a third option. *** This story is complete!

48 parts Complete

---Book of the Month 2018 winner in the sci-fi category from awardofthemonth2018--- ---1st place winner in teen fic Writer's Circle Awards by concinnitycircle--- A/N: This book is action-packed with a sprinkle of mystery all wrapped in a science-fiction teen drama! I know. It's quite a mouthful. Cue the summary! *** Skylar is born with predetermined odds against her. She's been isolated since birth from her true nature and her peers in the name of an experiment. A change of plans cause the people in charge to order her relocation to Oakwood, a microscopic town swarming with mutants like her. They silently follow her journey as Riley is confronted to strange locals, a boy that hates her guts and nightmarish monsters lurking around her house. Throughout the series, she slowly but surely discovers truths about herself she could never fathom... and that there is a daunting trap waiting to snap. One life. One experiment. Endless lies. Some cussing and violence invovled. THIS IS THE FIRST BOOK OF A SERIES AND IT GETS PROGRESSIVELY DARKER 😈 Disclaimer : My story is inspired from Jennifer Armentrout's series Lux (basically, credits to her because this wouldn't exist otherwise). There are many differences but also several similarities. The plot isn't centered the same, either way. I just have fun writing and twisting up my favorite elements.
