There are crimes in this world, no question about it. And criminals that need to be stopped. But you can't trust everyone, not scratch that, you can't trust anyone. Family, friends, and especially those that have turned on you once, because they will again.
Trust. Something that doesn't happen so often anymore.
Fate. Something we've never learned to control.
Love. Something we want and yet run away from at the same time.
Life. What keeps us alive and bringing us to death at once.
But nothing really is as it seems. Not in the eyes of a detective. And especially not for Amelia, but she knows. Although what she doesn't know.......might just be the thing keeping her alive.

Unconditionally
"What I was suppose to do? You left me, you went to Arizona." I shout at him as he storms away. "Wait for me." He shouts and I go mute. Did he really just say that? Had he really expected me to just sit around? "Oh yeah, just like you did for me." I finally say, finding my voice. "You moved on Elijah and it crushed me," I start as I get emotional and my voice breaks. "You think I don't know? You think that I wasn't hurt? I spent ten months holding onto you and even after that I still won't let you go, I still can't let you go." Elijah flips, shocking me. "You are everything Scarlett...and I am nothing without you." he says, eyes liquid as he stares intently at me. I notice how close we were to each other now. His hand on my waist now and I step in closer to him, heart racing like crazy. "I am nothing without you," he repeats quieter, leaning in towards me.

But all that changes one crazy, complicated, and absolutely confusing summer...Read about Scarlett's tumultuous summer as she discovers things she never knew about life and love and the craziness of it all.Complete

Her Rare Sight
"I did try to ask nicely and multiple times, I might add. The time for being nice has come to an end since it doesn't seem to work with you." He passed by the table and stepped down. There weren't many places for her to hide in here but the creature did tell him Amelia came into this room. "Please come out and talk to me." He waited a beat for a response but he didn't get one. "Fine, let me tell you a story. I used to be able to see the creatures clearly but an accident happened when I was younger that damaged one of my eyes. Now they're just blurry to me. But you . . . you can see them clearly and see rare objects. I want you to join me. Be my eyes." He waited again for a few moments for a response he still didn't receive. A thought occurred to him. What if she was hoping that he'd just leave the room? He chuckled quietly to himself in amusement. "I'm not going anywhere. But you know what? It's fine if you decline my offer again. Just know that if you don't come with me, you could come home to find that your parents are dead because of a work accident or some other natural cause. You wouldn't want that would you?" He paused just one more time and began speaking again. "If you come with me today, your parents won't have to die. I can keep them safe. If you don't give me an answer, I'll have my creature kill your parents now and I'll still take you. Do you want dead parents or living parents? It's your choice." Amelia came out of the bay window seat compartment. She was trying to hide her fear and anger. She didn't care what happened to her but she didn't want her parents to die because of her. She took a deep breath. "Fine . . . I'll come with you." He smiled smugly, "Smart choice. There's no need to be afraid of me. Your parents are safe now and I won't hurt you." "It's because you need me for my abilities." She said more of a fact than a question. She knew he wouldn't kill her because he needed her. "Correct. Now, let's tell your parents the good news."Complete
