Death is perfect. He speaks every language, he can do anything you can do; play an instrument, draw paint, skateboard, write ect. ten times better then you can, and looks like a god in the face of a normal human, and the only way to escape the certain fate brought on by meeting him is to be better then him in any area of your choice, and to win a competition against him,

Zaida Garnet is a child prodigy. She's been playing violin since she was a child, she spends more time practicing then she does sleeping, has been first chair at all state four years in a row, and has a most impressive track record on top of that. Her dream is to go to Julliard, and some day become a famous classical musician, a household name, like Bach, and Beethoven, however she can't do that from the grave, so her only option to make that dream come true-and to save her life- is to beat death at his own game.

COMPLETED Living a life you didn't sign up for is hard, but doing so while feeling lost is harder. Dylan Amity is a musical prodigy. He could play a range of instruments, from the electric guitar to his violin. He lived, ate, and breathed music and was on track to becoming the orchestra's lead violinist. He was ready to become one of history's best composers. But he decided to place his dreams on hold for a while when he found out that his dad, the CEO of Amity Industry, was diagnosed with stage three lung cancer. His dad's death was expected, but the way he died wasn't. After the reading of the will, Dylan is faced with the harsh reality that you don't always get what you want. Following a short period of grief, Dylan is thrust into a world of business, responsibilities, and guardianship. He never wanted to be CEO, but now he has to because it's what his dad wanted. He also never expected to be Amber's, his thirteen-year-old sister's, legal guardian. Dylan has to put his dreams aside as he learns to navigate his new life without any experience of being a CEO or a guardian. Without a guide, Dylan is bound to feel lost, but maybe Rose could help. Maybe she could teach him how to deal with it. ••• Sneak Peek: "You know what, Amber? At least I'm fucking trying!" I gritted out, meeting her eyes that practically blazed with fury. "Yeah! Trying to act like papa. But guess what, Dylan, you never cared about me or what I did!" She screamed, taking steps back towards the stairs. "You never cared when I was a baby, you didn't care when I was a toddler, and guess what! You don't care now. You're only pretending to care to make yourself feel better. But you don't! No one fucking cares."

Everyone knew Locke de Davies - the music genius. Not everyone knew Zane Roberts and he was fine with that. He certainly never expected to know Locke or meet him one cold October night. Nor did he imagine that Locke could become so solidly embedded in his life within a matter of months, disrupting it in ways Zane could never have foreseen - for both better, and for worse. Zane, after all, had a plan. He had his future laid out and nothing was going to stop it happening the way he saw it. But when Locke begins to push and pull him with an ever shifting flow of barely-stable emotions under a playful guise, Zane is forced to confront himself and decide. What does he really want? The future he planned? Or a prodigy? ~~~~~~~~ Posted in one go so there's no waiting around~ Short novella dedicated to my followers thus-far ~ WARNING: contains some strong language and mature themes.
