Kenna's life has been turned upside down.

Though the changes are positive, her past ensures that she still suffers from nightmares every time she closes her eyes. It's not long before her roommate notices, but she informs Kenna that she used to have bad dreams too. Except she managed to make those bad dreams disappear. Forever.

Kenna's roommate offers her the opportunity to get rid of her nightmares too. Apparently, she and her friends found a way to fully control and manipulate their dreams, and with practice, they've been able to use this ability to improve their waking lives as well. They invite Kenna to join them, and though reluctant, she's hopeful to finally have a restful night's sleep.

Kenna accepts.

Problem is, dreams were never meant to be controlled.

Dream is an ocean away, oblivious to the mental and physical torture George suffers through every day. Well, until he isn't so far. And George wants to talk to Dream, to thank him for helping, but there's one problem... He can't. OR a book where Dream saves Gogy from his abusive bf and helps him with the PTSD and onset of selective mutism. A story told in two acts. TW are listed in start of each chapter.

The Girl With Lycan Blood by TheSydneyMarie

(Completed) My back ran into the wood door as he held my arms at my side, my breath heavy and my knees weak. "Say it." He demanded. I shook my head and tried to free myself from his strong hold, but I had no luck. "I said say it!" He shouted again. I looked him dead in the eye as his grip on my wrists tightened. "No." I shake my head slightly, praying he would let go. "Anna I said-" "I won't reject you!" Annalee Evens watched her pack burn to the ground after her parents, the Alpha and Luna, died in a rouge attack along with her brother and sister. The pack never truly healed, and the pain of loosing them ruined her. She will no longer stay there in her sorrows, she is going to leave, even if that means becoming rouge. But her journey is cut short when she meets her mate, the Alpha with a temper, and with secrets. Anna will not only discover things about her mate, but dangerous aspects of herself. Warning: Very old and poorly written. I DO NOT recommend you spend your time on this!!! *previously All I Wanted was a Mate and All I Wanted was a Chance* All rights reserved Highest ranked: #8 in werewolf Copyright © 2020
