Iris is the oldest of a group of orphans, working hard and without complaint to help bring in money to feed and clothe the younger children. Everybody knows and loves her. She wants nothing more than a normal, safe life―but war looms on the horizon, threatening her plans.

Char is a dragon and a certified troublemaker. He and his brother are a pain in their commanding officer's side and a favorite at parties, especially among the girls. But when Char's familiarity with humans earns him a routine scouting mission, he meets Iris―and finds more trouble than he ever expected.

She's suddenly at the center of a war, shackled with a magical amulet she doesn't understand and can't control. He's too impulsive to stay out of the tangled web tightening around her, even if that means lying to his brother and risking his life to keep her out of the hands of a psychotic mage.

Nowhere is safe. Nothing is normal.

And Iris may hold the power to end the war and save them all.

The Girl Next Door by edith_snow

Iris Donnelly, at the golden age of seventeen, hasn't opened her heart up to anybody. Her philosophy is to get through her last year of high school with straight-A's and her head down. She believes that her heart belongs in her ribcage, not in anybody else's hands. Not only is the pressure of school on her though, but she has severe anxiety after her mother's death. So what happens when she bumps into Pierce Wright, also known as the school's "bad boy"? What happens when she's supposed to be his tutor? What happens when they start to tear down their masks and really get to know all parts of each other - both the good and the bad? And when happens when they become next door neighbors? ✾ DISCLAIMER: While the story has been 100% written by me, this was made to be cliché (strangely enough, it was my attempt to write a good cliché). The pictures weren't taken by me for the face claims! WARNING: This story also contains some heavy topics like anxiety, death, and self-harm. Cursing has been censored with astericks but it does have mature content (nothing sexual though).

Camp Juvy ✓ by donutized

Iris Giorgianni is no ordinary girl. She's living a double life: a neglected daughter at home, but a fighter on the streets. As the leader of The Sangue - one of the most wanted and well-known gangs in London - Iris has a reputation to uphold. Only, when one fight ends a life and leaves Iris seriously injured, her parents ship her off to Camp Juvy, where troubled teens are forced to rehabilitate their violent and criminal selves. Cue Levi Amos: the smirking, sarcastic bad boy that has been with more girls than Iris has ever spoken to. Unusually for Levi, Iris isn't interested in the slightest; her aim is to return home to her gang and get out of Camp Juvy as soon as she can. But when Iris sees a familiar face and Levi's brother goes missing, Camp Juvy seems to be more mysterious than it seems, and both Levi and Iris are forced to discover a world full of hidden secrets. #2 IN TEEN FICTION 23/07/2020 #1 in badboy 11/09/2019 #1 in missing 30/09/2019 #1 in delinquent 03/02/2020 #1 in juvenile 20/02/2020 #2 in camp 11/09/2019 #5 in love 13/09/2019

"You don't know anything." "Don't I? It doesn't take a person with eyes to recognize all that built up anger and pain sizzling inside you." "Stay the fuck out of my business."] While grieving the loss of her boyfriend, huntress Nera Atherton made it to her mission to kill every beast she can hunt down to avenge her love. Two years pass when she crosses paths with a mysterious and arrogant man, Azlan, who claims to be searching for his sister's killer.
