As far as Elsey Hollanger is concerned, she has no artistic talent whatsoever. She can't paint, she can't sculpt, and she can't draw for the life of her. Totally and completely talentless.
When her older sister returns from her school for the arts raving about the place, Elsey is shipped off to L'Académie Artiste - the finest arts academy for miles.
Embarrassed by her supposed lack of talent, Elsey strives to prove to her classmates that she belongs at LAA - especially Charles Lindt. Charlie is an expert designer, and Elsey is paranoid that he can see right through her façade.
Caught in a lie, Elsey engages in a special 'project' - prove herself to Charlie Lindt as a true artist.
Or at least convince him.All Rights Reserved

Lunaris Academy: Beneath the Moonlight (in DEVELOPMENT) by SportWS001

*The gates of Lunaris Academy whispered tales of power and ambition. Lanna Adrianna wasn't prepared for what lay beyond them.* Her transfer was supposed to be a fresh start. New school. New identity. New life. But Lunaris is no ordinary academy, and the students within its ivy-covered walls are anything but normal. Lucien Vale commands attention with every step. Golden eyes. Dangerous charm. An air of mystery that draws Lanna in, even as it warns her to stay away. Everyone knows his name. Everyone whispers his secrets. But the truth? The truth is darker than Lanna could ever imagine. He tells her she's his mate. That their fates are bound by something ancient, something primal. She doesn't believe him. She doesn't want to believe him. But the pull between them is undeniable. Rivalries simmer beneath the surface. Packs vie for dominance. And Damian Falk, Lucien's ruthless enemy, has his sights set on Lanna. Not because of who she is, but because of what she means to Lucien. Caught in a world she doesn't understand, Lanna must decide. Trust Lucien or walk away. Fight for her place or run from the bond that ties them together. Danger looms, and the stakes grow higher with every choice she makes. But some bonds can't be broken. And some truths can't be ignored. The question isn't whether she'll survive Lunaris. The question is whether she'll survive Lucien. *Step into a world of secrets, power, and an unrelenting love that defies reason. But be warned-once you enter, there's no turning back.*

The Badass Asian by TomboyGirlPlayer

15 year old Lianna Lisha Li is a normal Asian with a normal Asian reputation-or so everyone thinks. Her last name means "Warrior", but her appearance is nothing like a warrior. Li moves to Queens in New York City, her birthplace, to do some...stuff. There, she meets Charles Carlos Costa, a guy with black hair and black eyes as dark as night, and as handsome as hell. When he meets Li, it's like meeting a long lost twin. Li also has black eyes and black hair and is pretty. But her appearance is more dark and cold (as her middle name states: Lisha means "darkness") while Charles's (or as everyone calls him, Charlie) appearance is more sunny and warm. Charlie finds Li a bit unsettling but he sees Li as a mission to conquer her attention and approval. It is harder than it sounds. Will he be the guy that succeeds? Or will he be just another one who tried-and failed- and is just another one of the stupid guys that Li despise? But he has to do this on the run...A gang is now after Charlie since he's Li's "weakness". Is he? Or is it just a big mistake and Li would just hand him over to the gang? As a sacrifice for Li's friends?
