Book 1:

At 15, Trix is used to running. And right now, her main priority is staying unnoticed by the police after running from her previous life at aged 14. She is hoping that with the risk of being a runaway, her new life will work out.
 
She bartends as a place called the Umbra Mortis, a place as shady as its name, and is used to the customers complaining about 'werewolf fleas' and 'blood bags' and all kinds of creatures. Especially someone called 'The Terminator'.
 She rents out a shitty flat and her most prized possession is her motorbike which she is probably to young to own, let alone ride, and her leather jacket.

Brothers Tristan and Blake are used to the dealings that their hidden world brings.  Even though they are 16,  they both control the streets and comings-and-goings that they have to monitor. Especially at the Umbra Mortis. 


But when one of Trix's new friends is brutally murdered, she gets dragged into a world she never knew existed, concealed by the shadows and myths -  the place she has heard so much about. Reluctantly working with the obnoxious brothers, her only hope is to solve her friends murder before they go after their next target.

And their next target is her.

Friendships will be tested. Blood spilled. But the truth always comes out, no matter what the price.

"Three weeks. That's how long I got to have drama-free. I'm not sure what is happening to me or to Oakwood. Nothing's the same since I rolled into town and it just keeps getting weirder. Suspicious agents in suits roam the streets without an explanation. They're staring straight at me. The new Chemistry teacher is NOT who he says he is. I'm doing things I never thought I could. Like, mutant-level things... Lauren, Luc's dead twin sister, hid something from everyone. Something important that may have lead to her demise and that could lead to ours. Hunters are in town. I never knew four words could contain so much dread and terror. I'd rather deal with the Wanderers. I'm on the brink of a breakdown. I need help..." BOOK #2 IN THE SERIES! Ignorance is not bliss... In the wake of ridding Oakwood of Wanderers, other dangers come creeping in and they're somehow linked to Luc's absent twin. The past returns to haunt the mutants in inconspicuous ways. Riley's life is yet again in jeopardy, but this time she's not alone. Luc and his family are all thrown into the teetering balance. More secrets are uncovered. A trap dawns on them all. Invisible threats start crawling from all directions. Who is the real enemy? TW : behaviours of depression and PTSD are displayed. I don't name them, but one of the character will be struggling a lot. It may not be suitable for everybody. Other adult matters are briefly included, but nothing explicit or intense. Rewriting specifications : the main points of the story and end of the book will remain the same, am just going to change a few ways of getting there and adding some extra spice. Feel free to pause the read until the REWRITING sign disappears.
