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?

The Good Ones by DeeDeeMansfield
32 parts Complete Mature
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?

*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?

Perennial: Book 1 Of The Bright Series

13 parts Complete

Amelia Bright has a special skill; when she talks to plants, they respond. Well, not immediately. But they grow better when she sits in her garden and has a chat. In a world where vampires hide in nightclubs and wizards advertise their services to a skeptical society via an ignored newspaper, Amelia retreats to a cottage she inherited from a reclusive aunt. It's a pretty good life for a millennial; a rent-free existence where your annoying neighbour is a bear, but when a man who calls himself Martin Everly shows up and starts leaving creepy garden gnomes in the forest behind the cottage, Amelia gets a pressing urge to lock up the cottage and never come back. What does Martin want? Will Amelia be able to shake that weird feeling before it forces her out of her lucky inheritance? And, perhaps more importantly, if a random guy advertising his services as a professional wizard can catch a break, is there a way to earn a living slowly growing happy plants?
