The first instalation in the story of Livia Cardew.
When Livia enters her senior year at the University, a thoroughly cemented queen bee and president of her sorority, she doesn't expect her life to take such a drastic turn. Outside, she's a well brought up young debutante, known for her sharp tongue and independence. Inside, the gilded cage of her parents expectations seems to grow tighter every year. They raised her to be charming and to value nothing above wealth and family name. Her father raised her to seek validation, her mother raised her to please others, and she taught herself how to put on a front of stupidity and apathy over her internal insecurity, intelligence, and emotion. When Coriolanus Snow expresses interest in her, she sees him as an escape and an asset, secretly hoping he'll give her the unconditional love that she has never seen. Unfortunately, that was her first mistake.
TW: child death, a main character starting with an extremely insensitive worldview who makes cruel comments that I in no way condone or agree with as the author, smut, alcohol references.

The other side of her smile
(completed) She trusted her with everything-her secrets, her heart, and even her marriage. Delilah never thought betrayal could wear a familiar face. She and Elena have been best friends since they were seven. They've been through everything-school dances, breakups, heartbreak, college, adulthood. Elena was always there. Her constant. Her comfort. Her family. So when Destiny got married, there was no question who would stand by her side. Elena was her maid of honor, holding her bouquet with shaking hands and tearful eyes. What Delilah didn't know was that Elena had already slept with the groom. And she never stopped. For two years, Elena's been sharing her husband. And Delilah, completely unaware, confides in her like always-crying to her about how distant he's become, how cold his touch feels, how something just doesn't feel right. Elena listens patiently, holds her while she cries, and then goes back to the man Delilah calls hers. Every fear Delilah shares is another secret Elena carries straight into his arms. And to twist the knife even deeper, Elena spins her own fantasy. She gushes about a secret lover-a man who spoils her, buys her expensive gifts, and makes her feel like she's finally found the love she's always wanted. Delilah cheers her on. Laughs with her. Supports her. She never suspects the truth. She never thinks to look that close. Because who would ever suspect their best friend? This isn't just infidelity. This is heartbreak in disguise. And by the time Delilah learns the truth.. There may be nothing left of the life she built. "She calls it devotion, he calls it mistake, her friend calls it nothing but all three take. If the crime is shared and the truth is gone, who is the villain when everyone is wrong?"Complete

Colette: My boyfriend Zac thinks I accidentally crushed on him with a steaming cup of coffee which lead to our many chance encounters that made him realize that I was the perfect girl for him.

Home Is Where She Is
Percy was betrayed by his home and family (on the godly side), disowned by Poseidon, stripped of his powers, and forced into hiding from the gods. Percy runs away with his remaining friends only to discover the truth about himself. Now he's back to save the world from his youngest son, End. Follow Percy, along with his friends and his past-wife-current-girlfriend, back to the world of betrayal. Can he forgive those who betrayed him and move on??? Even though this is a Percy betrayal story, there is some stuff you need to know. 1) Chaos is mentioned and does appear but doesn't save Percy or come with the offer of joining the army, becoming his son, etc. 2) I've seen many crossover stories related to Percy Jackson and wanted to try one of my own. I had watched an anime called Cardcaptor Sakura and am going to bring the clow cards from that into this story (even if you have not watched it, it doesn't really matter) 3) This is not a Percabeth story, but please don't skip the story because of that. For all you know, it may be interesting, and you may like it... 4) I do not own Percy Jackson or the characters in this story (except one or two that I have come up with); that claim belongs to Rick Riordan. The story may seem similar to other betrayal stories because I got the idea from there. 5) This is the first time I'm writing a story, so it may not be perfect, but please give it a shot and read it. If you like or enjoy the story, please vote, comment and share. And if you have any ideas on the story or character, please go ahead and comment, but that doesn't necessarily mean that I will use them. 6) For backstory about Percy's past, check out 'Past of Alesandro'. The cover page is not mine; I got it off the net.Complete
