Every day, Fritz Foster wears a mask.
Framed for murder as a teenager, he's been on the run for years just to protect his brother's false innocence, living life in the shadow of a crime he didn't commit. He's found refuge in the form of the Archipelago, a carefully kept secret harboring the city's most wanted criminals. He survives there by playing the role written for him by his brother and the rest of the world: the role of a murderer. Unlovable, feared by all, and utterly alone.
That is, until he meets Kumara Deveraux, a chatty teenager who struggles to keep up in school and who believes everyone in Traverse City is his friend. What begins as tutoring sessions and reluctant conversations slowly grows into something more meaningful for both of them, and Fritz is forced to confront his own identity: who is he when he's not what everyone expects him to be? Can anyone love him for what's underneath the mask...and can he ever learn to love himself?
This story is for anyone who has ever felt like they've had to compromise who they are just to get through life.

Ms. Sinclair's Secret
| teacher x student | wxw | slow burn | When 19-year-old Lena James enters English Literature class, she expects nothing special. Instead, she meets Ms. Sinclair her cold, sharp-tongued British literature teacher. Elegant, cutting, and unbearably superior. From the very first lesson, the 34-year-old woman seems to take pleasure in dismantling Lena's every opinion with cruel precision. Lena hates her. She hates the condescending red marks on her essays, the raised eyebrow that makes her feel small, and the way Ms. Sinclair lingers in her thoughts long after class ends. But hate this intense has a way of twisting into something far more dangerous. With a strict 15-year age gap and an unbreakable teacher-student boundary, their slow-burning tension threatens to break every rule both in literature and in real life. Some lessons aren't taught kindly. And some hatreds taste too much like desire. "Ms. Sinclair's Secret"

Fourteen years ago, the Vitale family lost everything when a fire took their mother and their baby sister, Isabella. Or at least, that's what they were told. While her six brothers grew up believing she was dead, Isabella survived, only to be left in an orphanage with no memories of her family and nothing but a mysterious necklace around her neck. The orphanage was a traumatic place for her, what would her brothers think when they find out all the things she has went through in there. She was only fourteen years old. She has no idea that the family she has spent her entire life wishing for is still out there, and when that necklace is finally recognized, six brothers are forced to question everything they've ever believed. Isabella was never dead. She was simply lost. And finding her might uncover secrets that were meant to stay buried. ...

MISTRESS OF FLAME
[ BOOK 1 OF AZITERA: YTHER'S QUEEN ] Consumed by avarice, the four human kingdoms-the Infernal Empire, the Kingdom of Caelum, the Kingdom of Treterra, and the Nayale Archipelago-betrayed their covenant with Yther of Azitera, the race blessed by deities, who protected humans for untold centuries. They slaughtered and defiled the beings that once protected them from storm, famine, poverty, and pestilence without mercy. Betrayed by the humans they protected, the Ytherians were enslaved. Their four queens were caged, chained, and imprisoned to serve as nutrients to the human kingdoms. The once prominent Ytherians were reduced to nothing but servants. As the four kingdoms of the human race prospered for many years since their betrayal, one news staggered them, causing them to tremble in fear and rally their armies to protect and defend their domain: Sollel-the Mistress of Flame, one of Yther's queens-had escaped her prison. Her flames will raze hell, ready to burn the souls of her betrayers. COMPLETED CECELIB | C.C. COVER: ASTRID JAYDEEComplete

Don't comment about grammar and spelling (I won't, by any means, use them or check them), only if I miswrote a Country's name 3. Just enjoy I guess 4. That's it I hope you like it!

Felipe Viciouso, the Wolf King who once led a brutal massacre, continues to haunt their royal family and might hold the answer to the Ice Queen's long-ago disappearance.

I'm From You
"Yhianna" is the kind of girl who walks into a room loud, laughs at her own jokes, and acts super confident. But inside she's a mess of overthinking. Every text, every glance, every "what did that mean?" plays on loop in her head. She's lively and awkward at the same time, the type who trips over her words but still owns it. Then there's "Andrew". He's the opposite. Quiet. Peaceful. The kind of boy who listens more than he talks and makes everything around him feel calm. He doesn't stand out on purpose, but that's exactly what draws Yhianna in. It's the first week of senior high school A fresh start for everyone. New classrooms, new routines, new chances. For Yhianna, it's also the chance to finally deal with the feelings she's been dodging. She's liked Andrew for a while now, but her brain won't shut up So she makes a decision. Instead of spiraling, she's going to actually try. She'll push past the awkwardness, stop assuming the worst, and figure out once and for all. If Andrew feels the same way. The problem is, Andrew is hard to read. And the more Yhianna tries to be brave, the more her overthinking tries to pull her back. Now, in this new chapter of school, Yhianna has to learn how to be honest with herself before she can ever know if there's something real between her and Andrew.![Versified [A Poetry Collection]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/409706741-256-k129995.jpg)
