Every family has its secrets. 

Unfortunately for Harlequin Jones, everyone knows her family's nasty little secret. For eight years, Harlequin and her mother have tried to forget the truth and bury the horrors of their past, but when Harlequin's grandmother begs for her to come and stay, the truth refuses to stay dead. 

Returning to the home of her grandparents brings back many happy childhood memories for the thirteen-year old Harlequin; memories of home-made apple pie, playing pretend-horses in the yard and fishing down at Bitter Creek. 

But the visit brings back something else, something Harlequin thought had ended eight years before and she is about to learn that her family's nasty little secret is far worse than she could ever have imagined. 

Blood is thicker than water and family is everything.

*On Hold* Not Edited Ridley Appleberry is the nerd, the good girl, the invisible. That is until she meets new bad boy, Ferris Bryce. Ferris has been hiding a secret for a long time, so when he meets Ridley, he can't seem to get her out of his head. Ridley notices that he seems to be everywhere she is; school, work, the store. She thinks they're just coincidences... until he takes her by surprise. And bites her. On the neck. With fangs. All she think, is that vampires aren't real, yet the bad boy is one. ¤¤¤¤ "What is it?" His breath tickles my nose as he cages me against the wall with his large arms on either side of me. "What makes you so different? What makes me want to protect you and never hurt you? To keep you safe from harm?" A small smile flits its way onto my lips. "What you feel... that's called love." "Love. Monsters don't love." He frowns. "You're not a monster." "I drink blood and have fangs. I'm a monster." He deadpans, staring down at me with those mysterious gold eyes. "Then you're my monster." With that, I bring my hand up to cup his face and pull his lips down to mine.

Sweetheart by chloerainx_

[COMPLETE] 18+ (but if you're not 18, I won't tell on you) --- It had been a mistake. It had all happened so fast. The look on her parents' faces when they found out had been devastating. Perhaps that was why she didn't complain when they decided to send her to a small village in Canada, away from the chaotic and luxurious Los Angeles, with the excuse of being an exchange student for a year. Grace Castle was more than happy to welcome Elizabeth "Lizzie" Wright in her modest house, along with her son Nate and, well, Aaron. It had been 2 years since Grace had taken in the troubled 18-year-old boy, after the tragedy that had occurred to him and his family. Dark and untamable like smoke, Aaron was the exact opposite of Lizzie, groomed to be the perfect woman, always following the rules, and stepping out of line only that one time. One time that cost her a year away from her old city, far away from curious ears and judging eyes. A year that was going to change her life completely, tumbling into a den of lions ready to devour her as soon as they had her in their pack as one of their own. He would not let her have it easy. It was time for sweet, docile Lizzie to face the world and its snakes. He'd make sure of that. Though... was he sure she was not just yet another wolf in a sheep's clothing? Was her heart as pure as he believed, or could it be shaded with swirls of gray smoke like his? ---
