If you want to live the life, make up your life.

My name is Rose Allenwood. I am a female, with long brown hair. I live with my uncle and my friend. We have a normal life, live in a normal house, and have normal mannerisms.

All of that? That was a lie...
most of it...

The lifestyle of a con-artist in the woods in Oregon isn't what one would call "special". Everyone needs a little excitement in their life, and what better than the life of a criminal? 

...

Until the we came across an unknown magical force that took hold of our cynical, mischievous lives, and the result?

Well I wouldn't tell you, would I?

*This story is on going through really drastic changes so read at your own risk* "I look at myself horrified of my face, all of my characteristics had changed. It's like me, but not me at the same time! With a mane of a lion, beard and head of a buffalo, brow of a gorilla, tusks or a wild boar, legs and tail or a wolf and finally the most normal and human thing, my eyes. 'For the love of Pete, I look noisome! What the hell had happened to my non monstrous face?!'I exclaime as I examine my face way much closely 'Hey, that's me you're talking about you know! try not sound so hurtful' my subcouncious explains giving me an awful headache. 'What had happened to me; get out of my head!'" ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Princess Bethany Redrose, Daughter of the Most terrifying King that has ever existed, or well, at least that's what they named him. Beast, that was his name, and now everyone just call him King. She's special, not because she's a princess, but because she has a spell that's covering all her true form and magic. Since she was born with a spell that doesn't let her love, she has to find a way for breaking it without getting someone hurt... or more else, herself. With fear, strength, laughs and tears, Bethany will discover more things about her past that she never imagined, but could she have her happily ever after she desires? or would her answers destroy her completely. And most important, would someone ever love the daughter of a Beast?

Waking up face down in mud sucks any day of the week. But coming around in the sludge of a strange realm...? Well, that just redefines a bad day altogether. Trapped in an unfamiliar world, sixteen-year-old Quinn is frustrated that none of the strange Tree People appreciate his urgency to get back home to earth. Now he is faced with a choice that could change the course of his life: escape and find his own way home, or stay and help them find the cause of the poison ravishing their world. When the mind-reader unlocks one of the ancient mysteries of the Tree People it points to the only way of saving them from annihilation: they have to find the Power of Light. What exactly that means, the mind-reader doesn't reveal, but his next warning comes as a shock to all present: finding the mysterious Power of Light can only be done with the help of the dangerous enemy tribe whom they once called family. Quinn soon finds himself a little more entangled in the lives of these gifted beings than he'd care to be. Especially after meeting Jazz: the feisty girl from his world who seems to be a regular visitor to the world of Zoay. To Quinn's constant frustration, the aqua-eyed pixie makes it clear that she's not there to make friends. On their journey they'll brave bizarre encounters in dangerous alien forests, while sacrificing pride and will for the survival of all. Along the way Quinn finds more than he ever thought to seek: purpose, fulfillment and love. When the Power of Light is finally found a devastating discovery is made: if all of Zoay-including their enemy-want to live and prosper, one must be willing to sacrifice their life.

Young veterinarian, Mavis Rogers, has two goals for her new career- don't kill anything and don't reveal to her mentor that she can talk to animals. Because the universe has a twisted sense of humor, she accidentally kills her first patient and discovers that her hard-ass, temperamental mentor, Alex Dodd, can also talk to animals. He introduces Mavis to Aurora, a secret organization of elves who report to Nicholas at the North Pole (yes, that Nicholas). They're humans with the genetic ability to use magic and are duty-bound to protect unsuspecting non-elven humans from rogues. Forced into serving Aurora, Mavis is thrown into a war against an army of rogues led by ex-Aurora elf, Beau Tanner. Mavis learns that she alone possesses the magic powerful enough to stop Beau, but lacks the confidence to use it. If only her mentor wasn't such an asshole. Lucinda Morales is a Type A Adderall addict who takes offense at being given orders. Her parents ordered her to use her degree in chemistry to become a medical doctor, so she became a wildlife biologist instead. When she discovers that her new job with playboy nature documentary host, Kevin King, is a ruse to lock her into Aurora's servitude, she carves a path that none of her teammates anticipate. What Lucinda lacks in power, she makes up for with her intelligence and tenacity, and there are no limits to how far she will go to obtain that power. If only her mentor paid attention. Animals call Aurora elves the Good Ones, but how can battle lines be drawn when "good" is open for interpretation?
