THE SHADOWHUNTER CHRONICLES meets MISS PEREGRINE'S HOME FOR PECULIAR CHILDREN in this brand-new story of doomed debts dealt across generations. 

Coraline 'Cal' Everitt has a secret. Her body, which at the age of five, she discovered would split into two forms-one mortal, the other not. Oftentimes without her consent. Why? All her attempts to learn the reason proved fruitless. But here's the one thing she's certain of: no one in her family shares her ability, thus, she must bring it to her grave.

Oliver Whitaker has a secret. His double-lived identity. He hails from The Kinship, an underground society for the otherworldly Saz. And yet, he spends his days Aboveground, spying on Cal in search of a sign that would mark her as one of his own, like her parents before her. Even though they hold no memories of it.

Diana Zubairu has a secret. The ghosts of her past haunting her present. Her family moved to London in hopes of escaping the aftermath of her brother's death. She may think herself on the path to healing, may find new companions in Cal and Oliver, yet John's clutch is strong and stubborn-and he has deemed her his sole victim.

Then a sudden attack falls upon them, causing the walls guarding their secrets to crumble to dust. Cal, Diana and Oliver will have to rediscover reality in the latter's native land-the very same land Cal and Diana are also entitled to. But in The Kinship, they'll get entangled in a quest that will challenge the very basis on which their perceptions hinder. Min Hao, the youngest daughter of a dying politician, is missing. 

And only they may save her. 

The Kinship Chronicles is a time capsule urban fantasy about Cal Everitt and those bound to her by fate and doom.

" @nagykt "Reading this feeds my soul." @Yrthraethra Sixteen-year-old Mirra can see people's memories. She is a Shadow Weaver, one of the outlawed, glitter-eyed race feared in her land and forced into brutal slavery as children. She and her brother Kel have escaped their fate by hiding near the frozen mountains. But when bounty hunters snatch Kel, Mirra injured and unable to track long distances will lose him unless she gives herself up to his captors. As as a Shadow Weaver who's survived childhood and whose golden-flecked irises have faded, concealing her talent, Mirra's own value is priceless on the black-market. Taken to a lawless town in the northern territories, Mirra convinces her captors to sell her to a mysterious young man destined for the same province as the officer who has bought her brother. The young man is the Kingdom's missing Prince, feared dead after his escort was attacked on an expedition. He has been in hiding, waiting for a Shadow Weaver whose skill he can use to discover who ordered his assassination. But before he will risk breaking his father's law and taking Mirra to the royal court, he must test her talent and her ability to hide it. If Mirra fails, her hopes of seeing her brother again will be cut by the noose around her neck.

"It was a mistake..." She told her mother, folding her hands into each other. "Marrying him..." Her mother said nothing, she simply sat there as her only daughter stood across from her, on the verge of collapsing from bruised ribs and cracked shins. "Mom." She wanted to reach out, softly tap her aging mother. Though that was the restriction of her life. The binding stereotype that she was gentle and slow to anger. In reality, what wanted to explode from her ribs was a scream of an animal, and the tears of repressed rage and fear. She wanted to throw her body onto the floor, but the thought made her damaged body ache more. There was no response from her mother. The deafening silence reminded her of her own quietness as her husband shouted at her, his fists bloody. He told her that she was only a tool for his amusement and a money-whore for her indigent family. She was nothing else but a tool for both parties. And she was starting to believe him. --------------------- Sarah Johnsen's life spirals from the normal gritty resilient fight to a serene wonderland. On the outside, she's married to a kind family with untold riches, but on the inside, her husband is the devil himself. Forcefully married at 18, Sarah was forced to kill her own dreams of becoming a doctor in order to bind her poor family to the rich bastards of Glendale by marrying their youngest; Oliver Grean. Their arrangement had the ability to brew the largest timespan of misery any of them has ever known. From lost toddlers to paid staged kidnappings, the binding of the two families, the Johnsen's and the Grean's created a mixture of chaos, confusion, sorrow, fear, grief, and dangerous rage. And there seems to be no haven to escape to. Or is there?

SEQUEL TO CITY OF SECRETS It has been three months since Ember Fairose defeated Jacob Ashwright, and the Shadow World has been lulled into a certain sense of peace, or so it seems. In the New York Institute, Ember is leading the seemingly perfect life-she is raising her ten month-old daughter alongside her fiancé, Jonathan Morgenstern, has her loyal parabatai, Isabelle Lightwood, standing by her side, and has the help and love of all of her friends and family, not to mention that everyone in the Shadow World seems to know her name and face. Ember is presented with new chances and opportunities, but finds herself feeling unsure of the ideas of the future everyone is creating for her. To make matters worse, a familiar evil emerges from the shadows, stronger than ever, calling Ember back to the battlefield. The hope of finally achieving peace in the Shadow World shatters, as does Ember's hopes of living a simple, uncomplicated life with her family. Suddenly the perfect life doesn't seem perfect anymore. Tensions appear in places she never thought possible when a person from Jonathan's past makes an unwelcome reappearance, shaking them to the core with a surprising revelation, and suddenly she finds herself questioning the only thing she never thought she would ever have doubts about. It's bad enough to live with secrets, but when shadows are added to the mix, darkness always follows, and, well- Facilis descensus averno. Yes, the descent into hell is easy, and if there's anything Ember Fairose has learned in the Shadow World, it's that we are all so much lovelier when we fall.

3 parts Ongoing Mature
Abigail and Jessie Edwards grew up in a house where love was a foreign language and survival was a daily battle. Their parents-violent, neglectful, addicts-left them with scars that ran deeper than the eye could see. Jessie, the older sister, was forced to become both mother and protector, shielding Abigail from the worst of their parents' wrath. But some wounds even she couldn't prevent. Then, one night, everything changed- A home invasion. A bloodbath. Their parents slaughtered while the sisters slept just down the hall. At the police station, still dazed and reeling, Abigail and Jessie met the last person they ever expected-Samuel Edwards, the grandfather they never knew existed. With a quiet intensity and an unsettling air of secrecy, he offered them a new life, far from the wreckage of their past. It seemed like salvation. But monsters don't just live in broken homes. They lurk in the shadows of new beginnings, wearing the faces of those who seem safe. Abigail finds herself entangled in the affections of two dangerously alluring boys-both haunted, both hiding unspeakable secrets. One is something not quite human, a creature of nightmares and whispered legends. The other? A killer, whose hands are stained with more than just metaphorical blood. And one of them... was there the night her parents died. As desire turns to obsession and secrets unravel, Abigail's world takes a deadly turn when she discovers she's carrying one of their children. The revelation sets off a chain of horrors, drawing the attention of something powerfully dangerous. Now, with forces beyond her control closing in, Abigail must navigate a web of betrayal, supernatural terror, and a love so toxic it threatens to consume her. The deeper she digs, the more she realizes-her past is far from buried, and the truth may be more monstrous than she ever imagined. Because in the end, some secrets aren't meant to be uncovered. And some love stories were never meant to have happy endings.

Darkness is headed to the Clans in the form of someone the Clans thought to be long gone. Some new friends will be made and Arrowpaw will learn what it truly means to be a warrior. Meanwhile Clary has been having dreams. She yearns for something more and she thinks she might find it in the forest. Her mother would never agree and neither would her friend Simon, but together Clary and Simon will go into the forest and learn secrets Clary never knew existed, all the while finding her own place in the world. The first installment of Shadowhunters as Warrior Cats. This book will follow somewhat the first Warriors book Into the Wild and the first book in the TMI series City of Bones. Also there will be a few other differences that you will see as the book moves forward. I am a fan of Malec, Clace and Sizzy so I will be trying to incorporate these ships into the book. Please understand that this is the first book that I am writing on Wattpad so don't be too harsh if there are some mistakes. I do not own Shadowhunters or Warriors and I hope everyone enjoys! Also, photos I post on here will not be mine either, just wanted to get that out of the way. Credit to whoever made them.
