After school one afternoon, Caterina takes a shortcut through a lush, enchanting forest to get home faster. The vibrant flowers and towering trees seem like something out of a dream, yet as she ventures deeper into the woods, an uneasy feeling begins to settle. Unbeknownst to her, this forest is no ordinary place-it's a gateway to a realm far beyond the world she knows. As Caterina continues her journey, mesmerized by the beauty surrounding her, she soon realizes that the forest holds secrets she wasn't prepared for. With every step, the rules of reality begin to bend, and she finds herself lost in a world where time and space seem to warp, and danger lurks in the shadows. To return home, she must navigate this strange new realm, uncover its mysteries, and confront the dark forces that guard its secrets. Can Caterina find her way back, or will she be trapped forever in a realm where nothing is as it seems?

I woke up in a dark room, I didn't know where I was. In fact I couldn't remember anything from last night, it was all a blur. My sight was a bit blurry but I noticed a picture. The picture looked a bit off I had no idea what it was but it gave the creeps. I looked around a bit more there wasn't much. I thought to myself "where am i?" I heard a creek I looked around and tried moving back but the fact I had no idea where i was creeped me out a bit more. another creek. "well fuck" I thought to myself. Co-editor/creator Izzy

I looked down the side of the building. Should I do this? I thought stepping a little farther towards safety. What have I got to lose? No one loves me, I should just stop being a waste of air. I stepped to the very edge of the building. Come on. I couldn't bring myself to just step off. My heart raced, my hair was drenched with sweat. Just do it. I stepped off, sending myself hurtling towards the pavement.

Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.

"You don't get to be angry with me," I snapped, shoving past him. But Silas moved faster. His hand caught my arm, yanking me back, and before I could even think to curse him, his mouth was on mine-furious, hard, uninvited. My back slammed into the wall, and I should've screamed, should've pushed him away, but all that rage between us burned too hot. The bond I didn't understand crackled under my skin like wildfire. My fingers curled into his shirt, pulling him closer before I even knew what I was doing. It wasn't soft. It wasn't sweet. It was teeth and breath and bruised lips. When he finally pulled away, his breath ragged against my cheek, I couldn't even look at him. Because the worst part? I wanted him to do it again. ----- Violet was never supposed to enter their world, let alone survive it. Claimed by a cursed hybrid alpha and trained to break the spell that binds him and his people, she becomes something far more dangerous: desired. As power awakens inside her and enemies close in, one thing becomes terrifyingly clear, he was never going to let her go.
