Catwalk (Sample Excerpt)
Being a fashion model is nearly every girl's dream. But what happens when dreams come true? "AT THAT MOMENT, IT HIT ME. I was a mere mortal in a room full of demigods: actors, actresses, bygone legends of the stage and screen; men and women who had traipsed down red carpets all of their lives, whom the rest of the country, no, the world, had pined for, had paid to know the secrets of. Here I was standing among them, cavorting with twenty-first century royals." Eighteen-year-old shy, suburban aspiring model Catherine Watson longed for adventure, for a life less...ordinary and moves away to pursue her modeling dream in New York City. When she is "discovered" by the hottest fashion designer in the pages of Vogue magazine, "Cat" thinks she has it all as the New York fashion world's new "It" girl. Her life is thrust into an alternate universe, where star-studded cocktail parties, casting calls, go-sees, and nightclub openings revolve around her like constellations and she tries to play the part. Her former self, "Catherine," was now a shadow of who she was, and what she was becoming. Leaving her good-girl image behind, Cat quickly learns things aren't always what they seem on the catwalk, and she's faced with a decision that will change her life forever. Drawing on her own experiences as a model in the fast-paced fashion industry, author Nicole Gabor masterfully weaves a timeless story of self-discovery, coming of age, and the perils of first loves.Complete
"Aakriti Malhotra: The Girl They Called a Mistake"
Aakriti Malhotra... The youngest. The loudest. The one who filled every corner of her home with laughter. A soft-hearted, beautiful girl who never learned how to stay quiet. Carefree like the wind, bold like fire, and loved beyond words by her family. A family that felt complete- Two parents who adored her. Four protective elder brothers who treated her like their whole world. An elder sister who was her best friend, her secret keeper, her shield. She was their princess. Or so she believed... Until everything changed. The day her uncle and aunt left for London, they didn't just take their two sons with them. They left behind two daughters-silent, forgotten, and slowly fading into the background of a family that once felt whole. And then came her 19th birthday. A night meant for laughter. Lights. Celebration. Love. But instead... it became the night everything shattered. One accident. One moment. One truth too heavy to survive. And when Aakriti woke up to her world breaking apart... She didn't see the same eyes anymore. The same family who once worshipped her presence... now looked at her like she was a stranger. Like she was a mistake. Like she was a criminal who had destroyed everything they loved. Her name was still Aakriti Malhotra. But in their eyes... she was something else entirely. A girl once held like glass... now left to break in pieces no one tried to fix. Because sometimes, love doesn't disappear. It turns into silence. Into blame. Into distance so deep... it feels like death. And in that silence, one question remains- What really happened that night... that turned their princess into their punishment?

Fire Wings High
*DISCONTINUING* Hello! This is a story about (almost) all the characters from Pyrrhia and Pantala as humans going to the same high school, because, seriously, where is the best place for drama? High School of course! We also have a few ships. Well, except for the the two battling ships *cough cough* Sunnyflight vs Starspeaker and Winterwatcher vs Moonbli *cough cough*. I am sorry but, I'm going to put Starspeaker in there. As for the Moonwatcher ships....Winterwatcher or Qinter? I'm fine with both. Ehhh...I'll do Winterwatcher for now. Anyways, hope you like the story, bye!Complete
Wings of Fire as Humans
What would it be like if the Wings of Fire characters were people? Instead of struggling with prophecies, powers, and dragons, they struggle with crushes, parents, and gym class. Instead of having to solve magic problems, they have to solve for X. But sophomore year at Pyrrhia high school will be a lot crazier than they expect, with surprises both good and bad around every corner. ⚠️ THE COVER IS A DRAWING BY ME, DO NOT REPOST ⚠️ HIGHEST RANK - #4 in Wings of fire, #1 in wof characters belong to Tui T.
