There's nothing worse than depression, especially in Lorelei's situation...
She had been born a normal girl. There was nothing different about her, at least that's what everyone else thought. She only realised her problem once she was in her early years of high school.
Lorelei wasn't sick. She wasn't diagnosed with anything, she was just one of a kind.
But one day when she realises that her depression is what makes her little unique habit more noticeable to society, everything changes.
All it took was depression, a selfie and Lorelei being in the wrong place in the wrong time.
That's all it took to change her life and the world forever.

A Touch of Scarlet
We're brought into this world to live; eat, learn, sleep, repeat, repeat, and repeat again. Until eventually the time comes when we die. Or at least that's how it's supposed to work right? For some reason I don't think it's working out that way for me. • • • "Thick eyelashes frame deep blue eyes, freckles sprinkle across his pale cheekbones. His thick, tousled-white hair falls messily over part of his right eye. A blush starts to creep into my cheeks the longer I stare but I can't look away-- his features are so unflawed that they seem to resemble some sort of marble-like stone. It's almost as if he's not human at all." • • • Lydia Ames's second last year in high school starts off with an accident where she looses the only family member she has left. As if that's not the worst part already, she also has a permanent reminder of the day's events. However when she meets a certain boy and his friends her whole world changes completely. The question is did it change for the better? Or will it end in the loss of everything and everyone she has left? *This version of A Touch of Scarlet is a first draft = grammar is painfully incorrect* #1 in Vampire: September-November 2015Complete
