When loner Cassie Gellar moves to the coastal town of Horn-Horn, she hopes to make some real friends. She's growing tired of her siblings: snobby older sister Annie, and gay younger brother Brendan.

However, after her first day at Horn-Horn High-High, she gets lost in the local woods and stumbles across a little boy named Zag, who is shackled to a strange, clay head. Cassie sneaks Zag home and learns that he is no ordinary boy - he is a 'Child of Crux': a magical orphan with the ability to grant unlimited wishes. His previous owner, 
a princess named Ursula, has arrived 
in Horn-Horn to recapture him.

This leads Cassie down an unexpected 
rabbit-hole as she uncovers
 the shocking truth about the mysterious 
seaside town she now calls home.

Finding You by ccstoriess
16 parts Ongoing Mature
Rolford Town. A place I never heard of until the day we packed up and left everything behind. They said it was for a fresh start, but I knew better. You can't outrun ghosts; they cling to you, no matter how far you go. It started off quietly, just like every other town. There was hope for a peaceful life. But it was all a delusion. A naive delusion. At first, I thought it was just the move, just the adjustment. But then things started to change. I changed. It was like this place knew my secrets, knew my fears, and it fed on them. It wasn't long before everything I held onto started slipping away again. Every fragile bits of normalcy I had managed to piece together after that happened. Everything around began to crumble, faster than I could grasp. It felt like the town was swallowing me whole, dragging me into some dark, twisted underworld where nothing made sense. The wounds I tried so hard to patch up were only ripped wider, and deeper by this disgusting place and its people. And yet, I didn't run away. I couldn't. I couldn't when I found you. The you everyone warned me about. The you who was just like me, or so they said - aggressive, intimidating. I was drawn to you, maybe because I saw my own shattered pieces reflected in your eyes. We were both drowning, but somehow, being around you felt like I was breathing again, even if it was just for a moment. But even that.. even that was twisted here. I couldn't leave. Not now. Not when there was still something, or someone, worth fighting for. My brother needed me, even if he didn't know it. And you.. there was something about you that I can't let go. Maybe together we can find a way out of this darkness, break free from whatever curse this town held.

The Prophecy by lspearson

Ariella's biggest desire in life has always been such a simple one. She wants to be 'normal.' Unfortunately, that one simple wish has never been within her grasp. Coming from a long line of witches is bad enough, but she's even more different than the rest of her family. The fact that no one will give her any answers to why she's so different doesn't help matters. Her entire existence is shrouded in secrets that everyone around her refuses to reveal. After a family tragedy, she moves to a new town, and she gets her first chance to at least pretend to be 'normal.' For the first time, she's allowed to leave the house and go to an actual school. She makes friends, and she develops her first crush, that's quickly followed by her second. She's finally living the normal teenage life she'd dreamed of, but it doesn't last. Everything she believed about herself and the world around her is changed in an instant. Family secrets come to light one after another, turning her entire world upside down in the process. She quickly realizes that sometimes ignorance really is bliss, and maybe she didn't really want to know the answers to the questions she'd always asked, especially when one of these truths causes people close to her to turn their backs on her without hesitation. Before she can even recover from the shock, she's thrust into a war that she hadn't even known existed. Loyalties will be tested. She'll have to choose sides between all of the people she's come to care about. Will she stand with her family, her new friends, or the two boys who both hold a piece of her heart? One thing is for sure. She'll have to let go of her dream of 'normal.'

This story is my happy place; I do not plan on ever finishing it. It will go on and on like a soapie. Might break it up into volumes later. "Grab a bunch of broken misfits, chuck them in a tribe, add some glitter and loads of weird-as garbage, voila, you've got yourself a fairy tale... kinda... just... you know... minus the fairies..." Paisley Davenport ♫ When Willow Mayfair's life falls apart, her mother brings her to Briar Cove, the small coastal town where she grew up. Living with Rebecca's childhood friend, a new world filled with love, excitement, and friendship opens up for both of them. For everybody who also dreams of a fairy tale and won't care if the "knights" were a little dirty. Genre: Slice of Life/Romance/Humour This is a slow-burn journey through love and life, filled with an array of beloved characters, their sad moments, happy moments and a multitude of bat-sh#t crazy moments.
