I continued to call out to no one in particular feeling a little agitated by the growing silence. That's when I heard it... The winds howling came to a stop. The world seemed to stop turning.

Family Comes First
Being alone? Check. Being afraid? Check. Being abused? Check times 3. Honestly, my life wasn't this bad before, not until I ended in foster care... SIKE! My life was always bad. From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends. What happens when her only guardian, her dad, is dead? What happens when she finds out that she has five older brothers who are not only strict and demanding, but also protective assholes? More importantly, what happens when she finds out that she was taught lies from the moment she was born? Follow Amara as she digs deeper into her family history, uncovering the secrets and discovering the lies. ___ ⚠️ Trigger Warning ⚠️ There will be mentions of abuse, r@pe, self harm, death, and many other dark themes. I have given a warning now, and I will give a TW in each chapter when reading for safety reasons. However, I want all of my readers to know what to expect so that they can decided for themselves if they want to read. Read at your own discretion! ____ Highest Rankings: #1 in Rules: Oct. 18. 2020 #1 in Truth: Jan. 16. 2021 #1 in Alcohol: Jun. 18. 2021Complete

Before Smoky lived on the Nameless Street, P & his family moved there. His parents taught the kids of the street the values of family & survival until they suddenly passed. As a young kid growing up on the Street, P's sister knew them as well as any Rude Boy. One day while trying to help children escape a kidnapping she is taken instead. 5 years later, there's still no sign of her until P spots a girl at the Fight on the Container Street that looks like his sister. Only, this girl has no memory of him or the Rude Boys & further more claims to be Rocky's younger sister? Watching all seasons & movies will help you enjoy the story more as you'll be able to recognize more scenes not as elaborated on, characters, Easter eggs etc. especially in later chapters. It's not required & you can still understand & enjoy the story I try & keep characters as close to in character and their original personalities & plot while adding more background & behind the scenes to those we don't hear a lot of in the original material (specially in earlier chapters) Update: A/N & annot. will now be in the comments, to keep the look of chapters cleaner. Story is my own creation, inspired from High&Low. I've had it in the back of my head for a while, since Jan. 2020 & writing here began Mar.-Apr. 2021. So if by chance resembles another fan-fiction you have previously read, I apologize & kindly ask for a link so I can make sure I have time to change my ideas so future plot points aren't the same/similar. Disclaimer: I don't own HiGH&LOW characters, plots, images etc. only original characters I personally created for this story. These rights go the creators of this world EXILE HIRO & other producers, writers, directors & actors of the project/franchise. I don't make any profit & purely written as a fan of the franchise. I wish to keep rights to my original designs that aren't found in the source material. Please ask before using them in your own material. Pc: HiGH&LOWComplete
Wolf Love and Tiger Strength
Part 3 of the Bites and Stripes series In book one we meet three men who have to change how their world works so that they can be safe and happy. In book two we follow Peter and find out that no matter who his father was he is a better man and one worth loving. Here in book Three we'll find out what happens to the rest of the kids and we'll see if happily ever after is possible for everyone. Excerpt: They were cute I could admit it. Even if I wanted to roll my eyes at them. Peter and Mattie had already been through so much not to mention my little sister. I looked over at Olivia and couldn't believe we hadn't seen it. How had we not seen it. We'd been with her the day it happened how had we been so distracted we hadn't seen it? I wasn't sure I'd be able to forgive myself for that. Da stood up and handed Libby to me. "Keep an eye on her I need to check Samantha's diaper I think she's getting a little ripe." I laughed and looked down at my little sister. Nothing like that would ever happen to her I didn't car what I had to do. Olivia was the last sister I failed. I rocked Libby in my arms and wondered who'd be next, would it be me or Josie or even Olivia? Addy and Nelly were too young even if they did meet someone, they wouldn't be allowed to finish their mating. When da came back from changing Samantha's diaper he switched girls so that Libby could get her own diaper checked. Samantha, such a cutie had already lost her mother and father to a bunch of hate mongering humans. I knew that they still existed, but I didn't realize they still killed our kind. She'd be loved and included among us easily.Complete

These Things That We've Done (Kellin Quinn) {Book 2}
Sequel to This Time I'll Hang, Close the Door. Summer Quinn has been through a lot. There's been secrets, lies, changes, and promises. Finally some good events are taking place. But when good things come along, bad things have to balance the world out, right? What happens when the unimaginable happens? When the secrets come out, the lies unfold, the changes are for the worse, and the promises break? Well, that's for Mr. and Mrs. Quinn to find out. --QUICK NOTE! Kellin Quinn is not with Kate in this story. Instead he is with some fictional character I made up in my head (cool right?). Also, I do not own any band members nor famous people mentioned in this story, even though I would like to. Thank you for understanding.-- Warning: Sexual content, vulgar language, self harm, medical issues, death, and violence will be in this story. I will warn you when and if characters in the story are getting it on, when and if characters in the story are dying (or in pain either caused by others or themselves), and when and if something goes down that I don't think all of you want to read. But, I will only warn you all if it is truly needed. :) Dedicated to: @InnocentDemon69 Cover by: simplystiles-Complete

I love him. He loves me, I care about him. He cares about me, He's my everything. I'm his everything, So why can't we be together? ~~~ In a period, that's when an ending comes in. an ending to a sentence or an ending to a conversation. In my life. A period is said after an answer. And sometimes a period might turn into a comma. Creating more of what the person said. Giving an explanation to what it meant. Knowing the real reason why they said it. Maybe, just maybe. All periods never end. Sure it's there but does the answer, question or fact...end? It doesn't. Because explaining something is more then 1,000,000 words. It's more than what you can give or say. Although, I have a feeling its worth the time hearing it...-Bailey S. ~~~ Bailey Mae Smith. A Journalist. Smart, flawless, enthusiastic, and over all a perfectly, imperfect child. Matthew Colton Marshall. A Kidnapper. Smart. Hella fine. Sarcastic, and an over all person you wouldn't want to get beat up by. ~~~ Two ends meet, one spark lights, broken heart erupt, and mended relationships collide. Will polar opposites connect or will their differences get the better of them? Read Changes and find out how bailey survives a kidnapping and still has the time of her life...Complete
