Jake Kral had just finished high school. Fresh out of one problem and straight into another. Jake's parents went missing when he was in fifth grade, his sister Sebrina had raised him until she left for college when he became a freshman. He lived on his own with special permission from the local government and paid for everything with checks sent to him by his sister and money earned from his job at a small restaurant.
It was a tedious life, but he kept up with his grades and had a small group of friends. As far as he was concerned, he was doing alright. The only issue happened to be the occasional "cash drought" while he was waiting for his sister's usual check and his work paycheck. It was a calm but peaceful life.
He was meeting Sebrina, who had just finished her junior year at college, for career and financial advice. As far as Jake knew, Sebrina was excellent in managing her expenses, after all, she managed to scrap some money to keep him on his feet. He knew that next year, he would have to work harder to help pay for his own college. Perhaps with some tips from Sebrina, he could support himself and not rely on his sister.
It was on this fateful day of reunion that Jake learns about his sister's knack for getting in trouble, or rather, his family's knack for getting in trouble.

-I'm sorry Leo-
This is my first story that I'm writing and i really wanted to bring my childhood back. The story would be about you being from another and different planet that got destroyed from the Kraangs and your parents were The king and The Queen of that planet, you have powers just like April O'Neil and you can use your own Oc or even create one in your imagination. But anyways I'm moving back to the plot about the story...So basically you had a rough past and you had to move to earth by the age of 7 specifically in New York. You went to the same school as April O'Neil and Casey Jones, but you didn't know that the kraang were on earth as well. The people around didn't know who you were or where you were from but the students from your highschool were learning the history about your planet. You didn't have a place to live so when Karai learnt that she manipulated you into Joining the Foot-clan. After the years passed you are now 16 and a very loyal soldier of the Foot-clan. I know the story might be small but i will try to make more details for the readers and just know I might not follow the plot of the 2012 series but i will make sure to add al the characters and their pasts i guess. Have fun reading. I'm not really good with english but anyways...... -[This is a Enemies to Lovers book]-
The Next Alpha King (No longer updating 2021)
Grace Faith is nobody. The only person she talks to is her best friend Lily and sometimes even this one guy named Dean. Her brother had mainly derived all the high school's attention on himself and nobody ever pays attention to her. She's a very weak she-wolf and lacks the confidence in everything she does. Ryder Devereux was the complete opposite. He's the typical bad-boy you see in high school and is also the next alpha king. His father sent him off from school to school to find his mate, but Ryder only took that opportunity to get into even more drugs and girl's pants. They were both different but both very similar as well. They both have their own insecurities and they push everybody away. So what would happen when fate puts these two very different wolves together? Would they forget their differences and learn to love each other? Would they speak up and fight through their struggle together? Or would everything fall apart because of Grace's lack of confidence and Ryder's past?Complete
Dilemma
A seventeen-year-old girl and her seventeen-year old brother grew up in a broken, abusive, property-stricken home- until they learn the truth. Years ago, they were kidnapped as children by their drug-addicted mother, stolen from a life they barely remember. When their mother and stepfather are suddenly shot and killed, they are forced to move in with the father they were told was dead... along with five other brothers they never knew existed. ------------------------------------------------------------- Once, they were seven-taken from their own home by the women who gave birth to them. She told them everyone else died in a fire. Instead of saving she broken them, abused them, and reshaped them. Why? It didn't matter. They had each other. And that was enough. Until she sent them away to an "ordinary" boarding school- one that trained children to become assassins. Years passed. The broken became colder. Abuse turn into discipline. Pain into precision. By night and day. They become Italy's most lethal killers-unknown, unseen. Sometimes, though, they were still just two teenagers. Eventually, they were pulled out and dropped into a normal high school, expected to live like everyone else. They had killed countless people. Learned every way to survive. Yet when they returned "home," they didn't fight back. They didn't kill their mother or stepfather when the abuse continued. They had sworn never to hurt another soul-and to never speak of what the school had done to them. So thats what they did. Leaving that life alone. For good.
