"Love hurts. Loving someone is painful enough, and here you are loving a killer." - Matthew

There is a supernatural world hidden from human eyes. Its always been there, and the number one rule has always been to keep it a secret. Things have never been very stable between the races, the vampires and werewolves hate each other, the witches look down on everyone, and don't even start about the half demons. But despite everything, they have kept their world secret for millenia. But now someone has decided that the human world should know about their powerful neighbours.

  Elizabeth is being dragged into this supernatural world she never knew existed, and although she doesn't like what it shows her, there's no going back anymore. She meets Matthew, who has a wall up between the rest of the world and him and carries a secret close to his heart. Elizabeth doesn't know what to do with him, he's a nice person but there are so many questions unanswered about him that even she questions the wisdom of being around him. In this new world of unnatural creatures Elizabeth finds herself in, trusting the wrong person could mean death, or worse. Then there's James, shy, scared, and just trying to put one foot in front of the other to cope with things from his fresh past as well is his craving for blood. 

  All these people are at the centre of a whirlwind of shift and change amongst the supernatural world. Pressure is mounting and if they can't handle it well, it's only a matter of time before the bubble breaks. And in the middle of all of this, love might be able to shine some light on things. If they live long enough that is. 

Love, hope, fear, faith - these make humanity;
They are its sign and note and character

《 Highest Ranking: #5 in Vampire 》 "Is that Marcus? Marcus as in, from our High School Marcus!" Casey squeaked. I spun around, not quite believing her, but there he was. He strode through the school like he owned it and my god, he could've. He'd changed over the four years he'd been gone. It was like god himself had carved him from a statue. His cheekbones could cut a finger and a jaw that could slice a hand. He was taller, more muscular. He looked nothing like the boy that went away. He wore a blacket jacket and ripped jeans, his grey eyes studied the school as every female studied him. Suddenly, they slipped past every other person's eyes and landed on mine. No surprise etched his face, it was like he didn't recognise me. Until I saw the corner of his mouth lift up. ~~ Best friends, Diana and Marcus planned to do everything together. They would go to college and live in the same dorm room, they would always be best friends. But, Marcus went away. Without expecting him to return, Diana uses her heartbreak to change her life. She becomes popular in college.. Then one day, he shows up. But he's changed, he's darker, more silent and definitely a lot more hotter. He'd grown taller, his face sharper and he drew eyes from every woman on campus, even the guys. He spoke to no one and didn't even acknowledge her until she spoke to him. But something was very off. Very off, indeed. Cover Design: @newsies- Copyright @tavanalee No Rights Reserved 2018

Bury A Friend  by Carterwrites99
6 parts Complete Mature
Ghost aren't real. And chics this cute don't tell you they are. It's the reassurance I told myself, which mostly didn't work cause it was a straight up lie. This book doesn't have effervescent, long haired fairy's or stoic vampires that smolder and fight. More like a judgmental grumpy teen weed dealer named Zach, who shamefully talks about himself in third person like this. And you won't find some grand quest up a mountain or into an unknown land rich with magic because I have asthma and no time for that shit. And lastly, there will be absolutely no hideous romance where instantly the girl of my dreams sweeps me off my feet. I get on her nerves far to much for that. Finding out I'm part of ancient group of mediums tasked with cataloging, fighting and cleansing ghost you would think has some upsides. But so far all that comes with it is cold chilled air that gives me the sniffles when they're around. I'd like to say by the end of this book I'll have conquered the monster and won over the girl, but as you read you'll learn that's far to much faith in a screwup like me. This book won't be for everyone, hell people die in it. But the good news is that if I die at least I'll be around, floating off of the pages to haunt you in your home. Actually that sounds like bad news so perhaps try and finish so you know if you have a ghost . *This story contains themes of suicide, sexual content, drug use and mature language. 🎶Look up the Bury A Friend playlist on spotify to play the songs at every number.🎶

I noticed that his eyes we're ocean blue and his hair was messy. I looked into his eyes and thwack! The back of his hand collided with my cheek, causing me to spit blood. "Never look at a werewolf in the eye, specially when your weak and are his enemy" He said angrily. I nodded "Please don't hurt me" I said shaking. I was scared "Did you think of not hurting the wolves when you killed them with your hands __________________________________________ Dogs today's your last day on planet earth" I murmerred as I went out to the backyard to confront them. I knew that they knew I was here, without wasting time I aimed the grenades at them, causing them to howl and growl. Next I took out my gun and shot them six times in the stomach, arms, head, anywhere I could get them each and then using my silver dagger, I coated it with wolfsbane and then plunged it into their heart. Once I was sure they were dead, I took out my matchsticks and watched them burn. Happy with their deaths and their elimination and the fact that now their were two werewolves less on earth
