When I look in the mirror behind the front door I see nothing askew but I look gorgeous for the first time in my life. Its not like my face has changed any but now I am almost glowing and my hair is falling perfectly on my face. Perfect. That's the word. I look. Perfect. I give myself a little spin and suddenly my jaw drops. My shirt is ripped to pieces in the back. You can see my skin and something else. Something entirely alien to me. Something that scares the hell out of me. I have dark tawny wings. They were beautiful, but different.

In His Name, I'llalways love you
When I finally collapsed into bed, my phone lit up again. A message. But not from Sam. Ethan: You looked cold tonight. No context. No greeting. Just that. I stared at it so long the screen dimmed. I didn't know how he got my number. Didn't ask. Didn't respond either. I just held the phone in my hand and let the words sink into me. You looked cold. I shouldn't have texted him. I knew it the second my thumb hit send. But the way he looked out there-hunched on the back steps of the church like he was trying to disappear into his own sleeves-it did something to me. Not in a pity way. Not even a protective way. Just... a real way. You looked cold tonight. Stupid message. Simple. Too simple. But it was the only thing I could think to say that didn't sound like: Why do I keep thinking about you? Might do an playlist to this book if it is good enoughComplete
Silent Heroes: Wildcat
"What the hell?" I took a step closer to the mirror, staring at my reflection in disbelief. The person looking back was still me, but at the same time it wasn't. I had the same thick, dark, curly hair. The same hazel eyes. The same olive skin with a light dusting of freckles (ugh) scattered across the bridge of my nose. But my curls were now streaked with highlights. And not the subtle, golden-brown ones that sometimes appeared during the summer. No, these were an aggressive, dazzling blond that went from the roots of my hair all the way to the tips. It looked like I had spent a full day getting my hair done in some upscale salon. Never mind that I had never set foot in such a place since the day I was born. My eyes appeared somehow wider and more luminous. The colour brighter, my eyelashes darker up against them. And, when I looked closely, my pupils seemed to be slitted almost like a cat. I looked down at my body. My skinny arms-which had always refused to gain any definition no matter how hard I exercised-were lined with flat, wiry muscles. My bony shoulders were now curved and smooth. My scrawny legs were toned like a dancer. I reached down and lifted my shirt, revealing two subtle lines running vertically down my perfectly flat stomach, hinting at the rock-hard abs underneath. My whole body was rippling with strength. Like liquid steel.Complete
Lacey

Slowly, her carefully written plan began to blur, and she was forced to face the one thing she feared most: that sometimes, love finds you when you least want it... and when you need it the most.
