Midnight's not only just a special time for Cinderella. And you can say goodbye to that happily ever after, too. There will be no glass slipper, grand ball, prince charming (which is actually not that bad if you ask me), and certainly no fairy godmother. You gotta save your own life, or die trying. No, contrary to some beliefs, life is never that easy. Especially if you're one of us. Every month, on the 13th, when the great grandfather clock strikes the last of the twelve bells, something extraordinary will occur. But you must be careful, because there is no telling whether or not you will be able to come out of it alive. But if you are unfortunate enough to witness this, you might want to ask yourself how much do you really know about yourself. I'm Gemini Soluna. (But if you dare call me that,I will not hesitate to introduce my fist to your face. I think you'd find they go great together if you piss me off enough.) People call me Gem, and this is my story of how one sleepover can ruin your life, and change the world forever. P.S Please don't read this. It was written two years ago and a whole lot of writing styles and outlooks on the world have been changed since then. It's not good. Might or might not be edited severely.

They lied to me. My own family. My so-called friends. All of them hiding the truth, that we're tied to the criminal underworld, a forte where my family, the Storms, are the undisputed kings. Then everything falls apart. My dad gets framed. My cousin ends up dead. And the boy I've had a childhood crush on-Nathaniel-turns out to be the one who could destroy me. At least Luke, the one person I shouldn't want, fights to keep me from breaking... but even he has secrets. But it's gets even worse, because now an organization is rising from the shadows, an organization that opposes everything my family stands for. And in a family of warmongers and sociopaths, I stood out as a glaring weakness. The most normal, the most vulnerable, and the most efficient way to end a dynasty that has ruled for centuries. Because what is a throne without an heir, and a crown without its king. So here I am, stuck in a game of blood and betrayal where the only way to survive is to stop being the fragile girl they thought I was. If I have to burn bridges, spill blood, and embrace the monster inside me, then so be it. Because this time, I'm not running from my darkness. I'm becoming it.
