Summer Rose Parker, that's my full name. You'd think by my name that I have the perfect life, but truly...I don't. My family is dead, and the person responsible is my grandmother. Yeah, you hear me right. I woke up with my car crushing me, and I don't remember what exactly happened. Two boys found me in the forest, Oliver and Alex. They hate me, I'm a City Girl. By legend, I am the descendent of pyrokenetics on Earth, and my destiny is to defeat The City and honor the ones that have died in their hands. I am just trying to find my way and myself because losing my family made me lose my identity. Will love bring it back? Will Oliver be my safe haven or my hell?

14 parts Complete Mature
---------------------------- Alex never thought she could love anybody. Her family left her to foster care, and she hasn't been able to ever make any real friends. She plans to live a simple boring life, possibly until death comes for her, but is that what she really wants. No, perhaps she just needs someone... someone she never realized was just around the corner from her life. Shirley has had a great life up until now, at least she likes to think so. She does prefer looking at things through a more positive lens, so things like her debilitating health conditions seem to slip her by. Eating less food could only be a good thing right? Well, soon she would learn, not only to take better care of herself, but also to love. An experience she has yet to discover, until her lingering eyes fall far too long on one particular girl. ~~~~~ Wendy was the sweetest girl alive, with simply no one to share the overwhelming stream of love she had to share. When a storm hits her town, she's locked inside, desperate and alone for what seems to be an eternity. But unbeknownst to her, this would bring her closer to love than ever before. Marissa was getting over her past trauma, and only games could ever do that for her. During yet another month of locking herself up in her room, she found someone who was different, a light through the darkness that was her life, an angel, to save her tortured soul from damnation. At least, that's how she might phrase it. ---------------------------- The title was chosen years ago, so I decided to leave it be and combine these two stories. This will be a moderate length mini story for the two couples, exploring their journeys which happen at completely separate times. These are the untold stories of our side characters from my other book's shared universe, but reading those two books are not exactly necessary to enjoy this one. Either way, this is made for those who want to know more about these characters, so please enjoy.

"I don't care if it's your fight... because for you my love, only for YOU... I am ready to take all the pain, even the one that isn't meant for me," ---------------------------------------- Sitting in her car she made her way towards a specific place, a place where no living being wants to visit... at least till they are alive. Parking the car she stepped outside feeling the cold ground under her feet, with her trembling legs she made her way to a specific spot, she moved like a lifeless body, like a body without soul... falling on her knees... she screamed, a scream so loud, so painful that no one can imagine, she clenched her chest in a fist trying to ease the pain, but the burning sensation wasn't ready to calm anytime soon. "who did this to you?", "who could be such a monster to do this to you?" She asked with hopes, but... how can a greave speak?. She looked in front but everything was blocked by the tears in her eyes. Wiping her tears, she looked at the name engraved on it... 'WINTER ISABELLA PERKINS'. With a whisper she said, "I promise... promise to avenge your death... they will suffer, the same way you did". Standing up, she looked at the grave for the last time and spoke, "Now, I will only come here when I have given those monsters what they deserve, till then... please try to forgive me". She made her way outside while dialing someone's number on her phone. Within 4 rings the other side picked up, without waiting for a reply she ordered, "I want to shift my university branch from Orlin to GlenWood", "Why?" the other side asked, "I'll explain it to you later", "But it-" before the person could ask something she hung up. Starting the engine, she went back to her house with nothing but... VENGEANCE in her mind. ---------------------------------------- But how her life will turn, when someone unexpected becomes a part of her fight.
