A New Tide Rising
[COMPLETED] After completing her task of going to ground to bring her sister back home, a mermaid - Amaya - is drawn back to the small island of Linda Cove to find a young woman with whom she had a brief encounter during her time there. She yearns to find out if the feelings she experienced for this human were real, or just a passing infatuation borne out of intrigue for an unfamiliar creature. ***** This is a companion story to What the Tide Brings, in which Amaya's sister - Kaelin - is rescued by a human boy and harbored by his unknowing family, but Kaelin has a secret that could bring danger to her newfound friend. I suggest reading What the Tide Brings first for continuity's sake, but this story can be read on its own. It's pretty much self contained, except for a few references to characters and events from What the Tide Brings. *****Complete
The Misfortune of Distorted Truth
A twelve-year-old girl named M's life is turned upside down when a mysterious boy drags her into an underground world, where magic and treasure await. But there's something lurking in the shadows that could put M's life and everything she loves at risk. **UNEDITED** (Please excuse any grammatical or spelling errors, these are completely accidental and do not reflect my writing and English skills) If you read the story, I'll love you forever, except I won't because that would be just a little bit creepy. Please leave me a comment somewhere if you believe this story should be rated mature. I'm not entirely certain myself. The first of 'The Misfortune' trilogy.Complete

As if on cue, my room door bursts open, and in comes a girl. She's short, round in the face and has caramel skin; the ends of her natural, curly afro hair are died turquoise, and brown eyes lined with navy blue liner stare at me with curiosity, relief, but most of all, love. It's as if I've never seen her before in all my life, but I know her. I don't even have to ask who it is, or wait for an introduction.

My New Muse (Mild Wattpad Version) (Completed) [SLOWLY BEING EDITED]
We stand in silence, as I sip my water, and he watches me do it. Finally, he breaks the silence. "I'm sorry if I... offended you by sleeping in your bed last night. This morning. Whatever." "It's fine. You didn't do anything." He nods, his eyes far away, as if thinking of how to word his views. "I didn't do anything... but I wanted to. I wanted to so badly." I nearly choke on my water. I don't know what's worse; his confession, or how nonchalantly he says it, as if he's reading the weather. "Come again?" I say, thinking that I must have heard him wrong. He shrugs. "I want to fuck you." Again, he is as nonchalant as ever. I just stare stupidly, my mouth agape. He closes my mouth, grinning at me, wicked intentions in his eyes. Not so nonchalant anymore, I see. "Um, I-I...I don't..." I stop talking, realising what a total idiot I sound like, while his grin broadens. In that second, I am grateful for my dark skin, as he can't see me blushing. "Tongue-tied?" My cheeks get hotter. "Shut the fuck up." He actually laughs. "Don't worry, honey," he says, his hot breath brushing against my face, shocking me. When did he get this close? "One day," he whispers, now in my ear,"I will fuck you." I realise that my eyes are closed and I open them. He's gone. I stand there frozen, in total shock. What the actual fuck just happened? *** When all you know is disappointment, you become your own best friend. You isolate yourself from everyone else. You need no one; love is a weakness. That's the case with me. Then, Prince Charming rides in and changes everything. Except, he isn't a prince.
