According to Greek mythology, humans were originally created with four arms, four legs and a head with two faces. Fearing their power, Zeus split them into two separate parts, condemning them to spend their lives in search of their other halves.
Now imagine this happened in everyday society.
This is what Echo Blaire and every single teenager reaching the age of 18 has to deal with. Branded with the initials of their Soulmate at birth, they are taught the three main rules through out their life:
One...
Your Soulmate is your partner, in mind, body and soul.
Two...
You never harm your Soulmate.
Three...
You have to a year to find your Soulmate starting from the moment you turn 18, or you die.
Echo never wanted to find her Soulmate, She didn't want her brand at all.
Her Soulmate never wanted to find her. He wanted the freedom to chose.
But when faced with reality, would you rather die or give in to the irresistible pull that was there from the moment that you were born?

Fire and Gold (Soulmate AU)
Soulmate. Meriam Webster defines soulmate as "a person who is perfectly suited to another in temperament." Maybe in some parallel universe you get to chose your soulmate but in my world, you're born with a symbol and your soulmate has the same symbol as you. If you're born without a symbol, fate has it set for you to be single your whole life. Fate has you set up with someone based on a symbol. You're expected to marry the one fate has chosen for you. But what if fate was wrong? What if the symbol was wrong, the person you are destined to be with is one you're actually not destined to be with? What if you could chose your fate instead of fate having it predestined?Complete
Valentine.
"V&L" read our initials. So delicately carved into a now surely dead Henry's plum-colored flesh. His glazed eyes continue to stare in my direction-Though no longer focused on, but behind me. At this, a familiar scent invades my nostrils. One that promises death and despair. I can already feel his intoxicating heat and presence behind me. Dare I turn around? Absolutely not. My worst fears have finally come to fruition, my twisted fate catching up to me, alas. He is here. He has come to honor his promise-To reclaim his bride. Ladies and gentlemen, meet my husband...

The Girls with the Flame Tattoos
In this society, everyone has a soulmate. And the way to find yours is just look. Along with a soulmate, everyone has a small tattoo on their cheek with a symbol. Some could be a star, a flower, a yinyang, a fish, or even waves. There are so many people that the symbols are almost limitless. The tattoos don't care about gender or number. There could be gay matches, and there could even be polyamorous matches. The tattoos will tingle when you are near to your sm. And they will glow if you have found only one of your sm's if your match was poly. The trick is, you don't get the tattoo until you are 16. And even if you are near your match, as long as one of you are not of age, your tattoo will not tingle. Also, they are normal tattoos (except you don't get it or choose it, it just appears) so you can get rid of it. But if you do, your sm won't die but they will get very sick. The main characters of this story, Violet West (18) and Harper Black (20), both have a flame tattoo on their cheek. They live in the same state but for 4 years Harper paniced because she couldn't find her match. She wasn't sure if it was because her sm wasn't of age yet or if her sm lived far away. For 2 years Violet also paniced but she knew that some people don't find their sm for 5-10 years after they come of age, so she wasn't as scared as Harper. One day though, they feel their tattoos start to tingle. ____________________________________ *Will they be happy with who their soulmate turns out to be? *Will they recognize each other? *Will they be happy? *Will they break apart? -Read to find out. :) ____________________________________ This book is rated mature because there is a lot of talk of depression and self harm.
