"Shit." I sighed. 
"The bedroom window? I can make air pockets to get down easily." I nodded practically pushing her down the hall and grabbing Derek. I heard two sets of feet make their way up the stairs as we turned into the bedroom.
            "Quick." I whispered. 
"I'll go last. Just hurry." Derek said watching the door with his pan. 
You could hear them searching another room down the hall.
Sky went down first, practically falling, but she had it under control perfectly. She lifted a cloud up for me and I jumped in. She let it fall as fast as she could and once I was on the ground lifted it up for Derek.
            "Derek!" She screamed. 
His head appeared for a split second before a gloved hand grabbed his hair and pulled him back. 
"No. Derek!" She screamed again. 
A flash of light burst from the window and he reappeared. He jumped, but not before a hand grabbed his foot. He swung and hit his head against the side of the house, knocked out.
            "Derek!" Sky screamed at the top of her lungs. 
I grabbed her as it took both of them to drag him up. 
"We can't save him. Let's go!"

Preview: Chapter 13 The darkness was suffocating, and Ella was disoriented as she stumbled around with her arms in front of her. She was desperately trying to get a hold of something, something that could guide her in the right direction. But there was nothing, no matter how hard she searched in the dark she would not run into anything except more darkness. Ella felt like she had been stumbling around for hours when she finally tripped over something on the floor. The ground came rushing towards her and suddenly the world around her emerged from the darkness. A well to familiar sent reached her nose as she managed to get back up to her feet. Her eyes darted around the abandon building as she remembered every detail of her nightmare. Ella could feel the blood on her hands before she saw it. It was dripping down along her bare arms and creating droplets of red on the cold stone ground underneath her bare feet. She grasped for air as the metallic scent hit her. What was going on? She could hear the rain hammering against the roof of the building pulling her even deeper into the dream. The screams came next. The heart wreaking sound echoing throughout the walls, vibrating into Ella's core. The screams of pain and sorrow so deep that you didn't know what you should do whit yourself. But an almost instinctive feeling flowed over Ella, and she desperately started to look around, trying to locate where the scream was coming from. It didn't take her long to notice her sister in a pool of blood on the cold stone ground. She was turning in pain desperately trying to keep the screams from coming out. Ella took a deep breath as she almost slipped in the pool of blood around her sister as she ran towards her. She fell down on her knees next to her with her red hands hovering over her sister's belly. They were shaking uncontrollably. "Stella please I beg you"
The Situation by everyone_loves_Harry

A few snippets so far: I felt naked in front of him. He's stripped me bare, pulled back my flesh, cracked open my rib cage to literally have my heart in his hands. He has the power to finish me off with one forceful squeeze or help hold all the pieces together while I work on mending and healing it. **** I take this time to breathe in the stale peacefulness of the room and wait for my body to properly wake up to get started with another day. My thoughts are soon abruptly stopped when I hear heavy breathing next to me, then I can feel the rise and fall of someone's chest and the heaviness of something wrapped around my torso. The imaginary glue in my eyes disappears as they open in a flash. To my utter disbelief and confusion, I find Harry sleeping...in my bed...with me. What, when how...what in the world is happening?! My internal panic worsens when I realize if he's here he saw the broken glass and blood in the room. FUCKING HELL! "Don't freak out, don't freak out," I talk out loud to myself but it's not fucking working. **** Last fucking chance to tell me I'm wrong and you're not hoeing around then sleep in my bed!" I say as harshly as I can. She doesn't say anything, doesn't even bat an eye at what I said. I pick up her phone on my nightstand and throw it at the closed door and watch her body tense up in anger. Her fists are white from how tightly she is clamping her fingers in her palm and her jaw is clenched. "You said it yourself, we're just friends. Friends don't act jealous like this," she quietly speaks. "I am not jealous; I couldn't give a fuck less. Have nothing to be jealous of." She takes a step back like I hit her, I can see her shattering right in front of me. "You know your way out. Get the fuck out of my apartment now," she walks over to grab her phone that bounced off the wall and walks out, she stops before she closes the door all the way.
Her Mate by Onomeuloho

"it's time". At the grave tone of his voice, I peak up at the sky to notice the once bright sky had painted itself in dark crimson. The sky is sored with black thin streaks which is beginning to form as all the once twinkling stars seems to have disappeared leaving only the now faint red moon. I inhale a huge amount of air; turning to stare at Luke. "You look surprisedly calm. How are you not scared of the chaos approaching? " A small silence follows after. He turns around and took lazy careful strides towards me; stopping only when both peaks of our shoes touched the other. The side of his lips curls up in a wicked smile as he leans in closer until I can smell nothing but his all so familiar musky wood mixed with a bit of oranges scent flow gently into my nostrils. "I watched my family being brutally killed before my eyes sweetheart. Trust me I am the chaos they should be scared of." With that, his deep crimson eyes flares brightly into a deeper shade of red. ••••••••••••• Elise White had waited and prepared patiently all her life to finally be mated with the love of her life; Daniel Silver, the Alpha of the silver pack and finally become his Luna but calamity soon ensues when their pack is attacked by another who declares war on them. Elise on the other hand soon realizes that the danger she'll encounter is much more deeper than she had thought as she battles to find the truth and danger which surrounds her existence as she alongside finds solace in the new grown attachment she feels for whom she thought to be the enemy.

However, school goes much better than planned when she meets a caring boy named Matt. Madeline begins receiving various creepy and unsettling threats from an anonymous source. Ripped from the comfort of her home, she is taken captive by the man who makes her life a living hell. Matt is determined to find her, no matter what it takes. Him and his friends, Dylan and Taylor, devise a plan and set out to find her. Will she survive? Will she ever be found? *** I pushed myself to my feet and tried to run as fast as I possibly could. I saw the woods ahead and knew I just had to make it into the thick trees. As I was only a few yards away from freedom, I felt an excruciating pain in my hip, causing me to collapse. I screamed out in agony and clutched my hip. There was a rock, stained with blood, that lay next to me. I saw a pair of oncoming rubber boots in the distance. I began to cry hysterically as I knew my freedom was short lived. "You! I thought you would cooperate!" the kidnapper screamed. I looked up at his furious face and gasped in horror as I saw a whip in his hand. "I should've never trusted you. You are my daughter, you stay with me. I love you baby, you can't run away from me!" he screamed as he raised the whip and came down on my back with unfathomable force. Cover made by @kandtforever

- CONTENTS MATURE! 18+ scenes - Celeste believed nothing more than being a normal girl, in a normal street, in a normal world but nothing can just be normal? Right? Well this idea of a normal life, stops for Celeste and she goes back to her parents home town, where she is forced by law to a mating ball and is convinced she is something she is not.... But when she meets a blue eyed handsome man that is not who he seems, she is intrigued and is ready to explore. Follow Celeste on her journey to find out who she really is, discover the world she believes is insane and will these blue eyes help her? ------ "I effect you as much as you effect me and it pains me to see my mate with another" he whispers in my ear. I gulp deeply and I want to drop to my knees, to plead that my life is in his hands. Although I gulp and shake my head. "Fine, but I'll be there and I'll be watching!" He whispers in hush tones. I gulp and feel the pain again in my chest. His blue eyes come back to my own and I don't even give him a smirk. He lets go of my jaw and with in a flash I see him leave. The thought in my mind is that my mate is fucking hot and I don't know how long I can deny that for or deny the inseparable connection between us. ---- A/N Just a quick note to say that this book indeed does need heavy editing and as a Co-writer I find this story not in my favour. I know the main character Celeste may come across as mean and as a comment mentioned 'annoying' this book will go through editing. But I'd you choose to still read then fantastic! It's our first 'mate' and 'vampire' book so please be kind and all comments will be taken into consideration. Thank you L&R x

Bang! I sat bolt upright. Did I imagine that? That noise? What was it? I clambered out of bed and almost fell down the stairs with the panic that had set in. My front door was wide open but nobody was there, the wood was just swinging in the doorway allowing the cool breeze in my house. What if somebody was already inside? I hopped over the living room sofa, to climb the stairs yet again and as I made it to the landing I was thrown into the wall. My body pinned against it with a muscled form shadowing mine. A hand placed over my mouth silenced my screams that I was too scared to let out anyway. "I'm not going to hurt you. Just don't scream." It was Colton. His husky voice was a distinct reminder that he was my mate. The tingles that spread through my body made me hate but love the entire situation. I want him closer. "You don't run away from me, understand?" I nodded, he was really close to me and my wolf purred for him to be closer. I pushed the thoughts to the back of my mind as he slowly removed his hand. "What do you want?" I demanded, making the futile attempt to shove him away though he didn't move an inch. "I want what is mine." He replied with a low growl that sent chills up my spine. My back was still pressed firmly against the wall and I think I was in shock to move. Though I felt safe which made me feel sick, how could I be safe in the presence of him? "No." I walked downstairs and into the kitchen. "No?" He repeated my words back to me and I boiled the kettle for a cup of tea. My mum said tea fixes everything, then again it never fixed her relationship. "You heard me." "I heard you clear. I'm just making sure you're happy with that answer before I make you regret it." Colton advanced forward, pure dread taking over my body at the size of him compared to me. He leaned forward so his lips were against my ear and with a soft tone he whispered. "Are you happy with that answer?"

I woke to a sudden breeze invading the warmth from the heavy blanket that caressed my skin. Here, alone with my thoughts, the still, calm quiet in the atmosphere is almost painful. I feel suffocated in the clingy, static air. In quiet, still moments like these, I can almost feel Him. I don't know who "Him" is, but I can feel his presence. It's almost calming, especially on fearful, anxiety fueled nights. Usually, he was the strongest when I had a nightmare. The nightmares weren't as common now, but, right after everything happened, I was having them every night. I'd wake up and swear I was drenched in blood, my eyes and lips sticky, my nose filled with the smell of iron and fuel. After everything, that's when Him first came. From there, he just never left. I can usually sense when Him is near. Today, though, his presence is stronger. I can almost feel Him next to me, weighing down the mattress. Some nights, I roll over and imagine how he looks, envision his smile or the sparkle in his eyes. He's never there and I'm left clutching to the thought that he exists, staring into empty air. Tonight, though, I swear I can reach out and touch him. Extending my hand gently, I sweep my hand out into the darkness and meet an inexplicable warmth. A scream rips from my lungs as hands cover my face and two icy blue eyes stare back at me, daring me to speak again. A soft cloth caressed my nose and mouth before I felt myself fade into bed.

#1 in werewolf (first time: December 13th, 2015) #64 in drama (May 11th, 2018) Xavier sighed and tried to move in front of me without scaring me into backing away from him. "It's okay little one," he said as came closer to me. I felt so tiny in his presence, especially in wolf form. He knelt down and tried to move closer but I whimpered and backed up more into the tree. He sighed again before trying again and I tired to put all my fears away as he once again reached out his hand. I put my head down, hoping that if I couldn't see him, I wouldn't be scared. As I felt his hand on my back and felt tingles explode, I jumped but then relaxed as I got used to it. I calmed down more as he picked up my small frame and held me close before whispering into my ear, "What has happened to you little one?" *~*~*~* Celeste has always been running.

'What was that?' I whispered to Cole who had gone pale. 'I don't know' he replied. 'Should we go check it out?' I asked. 'Probably just Keeling dropping a box of files or something'. 'Yeah probably' I agreed trying to reassure myself. Then another crash, this time louder followed by a bone shattering roar. Both Cole and I leapt to our feet. 'Still think it was Keeling?' I asked Cole, he gulped. All it took was one chance sighting in the car park, a high school fight and one disastrous detention for Ivy Waters and Summer Adams to be thrown into a world they had no idea existed.
