"My parents heard about James' mental state and worried it was a contagious disease that I would eventually succumb to as well. So, they sent me here, before I could end up where he is now. That certainly would've damaged their reputation."

"You've mentioned your parents, but what are your own thoughts?" Sapphire murmurs, her wintry countenance all too knowing, "Were his dangers contagious to you?"

Were they?

"I don't think so, Saph," I sigh wearily, running a hand through my tangled hair, "But like you said: as time runs on, I seem to doubt myself more and more."

* * *

After a discordant fallout with her estranged lover James, Adelaide DuPont arrives quietly at the Citadel of Sic Cytisoventi, a boarding school founded on behalf of certifiable teenagers across western Europe. There, she quickly befriends an intriguing tetrad of gemstones: Topaz, Sapphire, Ruby, and Emerald - all of whom appear to possess far more cognizance around the mysterious school than any student should. Advancing past each turn under the certain direction of her reprobate curiosity, Adelaide soon stumbles upon misfortune in the dungeons and finds herself suddenly and inescapably entwined with the gemstones in a deadly murder mystery brimming with tragic discoveries and heartbreak.

"You should have known me better than this, little sparrow," He chuckled deeply, his gaze fixed on me. "Lucas please!" I cried, now stopped by the wall as my heart beats faintly. "Don't worry it's just a little game, you and I will play, you'll love it, little sparrow," He smirked. I knew this was a trick, Ben lied when he said he wouldn't hurt me and I stupidly fell into the trap. Now, I was alone with him and in his room. I think this is the time for me to announce my funeral... "Strip!" His cold voice snapped me out,as he stared at me with a deadpan expression while I gazed at him in ultra shock. *********************************** Camilla Evans is a gentle nerd in her finals at Watermark Highschool.

Emma Moore, professor in Healing at Hogwarts, has to suppress her feelings for her old best friend and now colleague Severus Snape, who she hasn't seen in ten years, while figuring out who killed her aunt. --------------------------------------------- Emma Moore had a good life, objectively speaking. She worked her dream-job as a Healer at St Mungo's Hospital, and had a boyfriend, Jordan, who loved her and worked at the hospital with her. But somehow, she was still not happy. She still missed the people she left behind ten years earlier. One person, in particular. But when Jordan cheats on her with another colleague, someone she considered a friend, Emma finds herself gathering her things and leaving her whole life behind her. In a spur of the moment decision, she applies for a job at Hogwarts, School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. To her great delight, she's hired as a professor in Healing. Arriving at the school, she finds out that her old best friend, Severus Snape, also works there; the boy she was hopelessly in love with during the seven years they went to school together, the man she could never really get over in the ten years since she'd last seen him. Now too late to terminate her new job, she has to make the best of it. And then her aunt gets killed while on one of her auror missions and all the evidence seems to point to Severus. How well does she still know the boy she used to know like the back of her hand? How much can she still trust him? This story is set during Harry Potter's first year at Hogwarts.

In one swift movement of my hand I reached behind Sapphire's neck and released her hair from the low ponytail it was in. She gasped at my action and looked at me with feverish eyes. I thought I saw the colour gold flicker in her eyes, for a few seconds before I lifted my hand near her face and tucked a strand of her wavy hair behind her ear, before I said: "I fell in love with you, the first second I saw you reading that Tolstoy book in the library." She looked up at me, her warm beige skin looked like it was glowing now and she said with pure sincerity in her eyes "per sempre, in ogni dimensione, per sempre in ogni vita, solo tu fino al mio ultimo respiro amore mio" It meant (Forever, in every dimension, forever in every life, only you until my last breath, my love) I snaked my hands around her waist and pulled her close to me. Before kissing her the way I wanted to all this time, i looked into her eyes and said "Me too my love, me too." My first novel is about soulmates. And reincarnation. About, how many bodies a soul has to live in before they finally become their true selves. And before they finally get to be with their soulmate. It's about how love has so many faces. It's about how we never know what roads life will force us to cross. And what emotions we will be gifted to feel. And the things we're blessed with that sometimes we neglect. It's about giving yourself the time to grow and evolve before you give yourself to someone completely. And it's about not to take the love you have in your life for granted.

Prison Diaries: Book 1 (complete) A law-abiding student gets entangled with a broody inmate when she discovers there has been a miscarriage of justice. She goes in to help, but ends up breaking the first rule of interning at a prison; she falls for the inmate. ***** Carter Reynolds' teenage years ended the second the gavel hit the sound block. Or maybe they ended when the police found him standing over a dead body, drenched in blood. It might even have been before that. When he connected his fist with a face that left a broken jaw in its wake. Either way, it was over. He was sentenced to 25 years in prison. He accepted his fate, only promising himself to never care for anyone so intensely again. Almost four years into his sentence, Arya Crawford walks through the wrought iron prison gates. A self-proclaimed miniature philanthropist with a heart of gold, a law-abiding student with an urge to always have fun, a girl with a silent cause. She had taken up an internship at the New York State Penitentiary. And in time, Carter and Arya both realize something. She had broken the first rule instructed by the warden. She had fallen for an inmate. Which meant she couldn't stay. He had broken the promise he made to himself. He had started to care for her. Which meant he couldn't let her leave. But it's a little difficult to make that happen when you're stuck in a closet sized cell. And waiting twenty-one years is out of the question. ***** Highest Rankings: #6 in Romance, #2 in Passion, #4 in Badboy, #1 in Witty (for those who don't think an inmate/prison trope is their cup of tea, don't be put off because the story is first and foremost 'romance') Disclaimer** Reader discretion advised. - Mature content Story contains explicit language, sexual content, and physical and sexual violence.

Heat was radiating from him, and it scorched me all the way down my spine. His breaths were falling on the back of my neck with a tingling warmth that brought goosebumps to the surface of my skin. He placed one large hand on my shoulder and wrapped my long brown hair around his other. Gently, he tugged on my dark mane, pulling my head to the side exposing my neck. Bringing his face down to the crook there, he inhaled deeply. A rumbling "mmmm," escaped him. My mouth went dry. "Are -are you going to mark me?" I manage in a stuttered whisper. Book Blurb: (albeit not a great one, the worst part of writing a story, in my opinion...) Dr. Willa Grey has developed a little bit of a performance problem... Willa has a plan for how she wants to spend her life. She even fought for a rare opportunity to attend human medical school. Unfortunately for Willa, the time among humans denying her wolf instincts has had dire consequences that could ultimately mean her life. Even worse, her homecoming falls on the eve of the Blue Moon Summit, when she will not only have to face her pack leaders but also some of the most powerful leaders from around the world, and she is terrified they could sniff out the truth. Just as she fears she could possibly lose her pack, and everything she has worked for, a chance encounter with a mysterious wolf on the night of the full moon ignites her mate bond and stirs her dormant wolf. Who is her mystery mate, and will he be her liberator or persecutor? Currently in the First Draft Copyright 2024 Alara Birch, all rights reserved.

COMPLETED "What you're doing is wrong?" I smirked, licking my lips as she wails tied by the bedpost and completely bare to me. "You know what have you done, Sapphire?" I barked angrily, as she winced and drops over the bed. "I am Azura, not sapphire!" She seethed in anger with venom in her tone. "Why not? Lie to yourself and when you'll end up screaming my name, we will see who you're," and that said, my smirk turned sinister and my lips molded against her as tears of agony stormed her eyes. She dared to leave me and my son alone. Now she has to pay for our broken selves. He is too obsessed with her. Obsession like this isn't healthy, but love like him will never be found because his obsession and love were her boon and bane. It was the only poison that can cure her and maybe that was the reason he had her in his palm. He would savor her, for she only belonged to him, even if she didn't like how her heart would quicken to see him and how she was so smitten with him. Yet what shall happen when the secrets of their meeting are unveiled? Until when would he love her? Until when could she run from the fate that thinks she belongs only belongs to him? ***MATURE CONTENT*** READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION***
