"Having your life turned inside out and upside down is hard to handle. Especially when it's flipped into chaos because of a terrifying and unexplained reason, Adrian!" I smacked him. "You wouldn't know, would you? You're easily the hottest guy at our school, you've got money, and every girl is practically falling all over themselves trying to get to you, and yet you won't leave me alone! For some reason, they're all invisible-"
"They're shallow. Not like you." The red welt on the side of his cheek didn't match his calm tone.
"You know what? I don't care. Right now, I don't give a shit."

Yep, that's me. The girl who's spent her entire existence in the background. And if people discover what I'm hiding-well, let's just say it won't be like that anymore. But there is no going back.

How The Bad Boy Found True Love.
I watched him watch me as he was about to press his fist into the big red button that read "Emergency Fire!". I was unable to form words because, I thought about how hot he looked as he stared back at me with such intensity. It just intrigued me. I finally snapped out of my trance, but not because I'd came to my senses, but because I felt a cold sensation running down my body. I blinked about three times before it finally registered that he'd pressed the button and now water was spilling from the roof, and some students were laughing and playing. My breath hitched in my throat as he came closer. "You really should've worn a more, I don't know, a thicker shirt or bra. Because your two lovely friends are standing at attention." as the words left his mouth, realization caught up to me and I flushed with embarrassment and quickly crossed my arms over my chest. Talk about scarred for life! Jerk. Meet Charm Mill, your typical nerdface. She's the smartest girl in school, straight A's, great punctuality.. eveything in the book. She's also the invisible girl. No one notices her. But, for her, that's a great thing. She feels that going unnoticed means less drama, which is correct. But, what happens when Heath Cullen gets himself in trouble because he's not performing the way he should and the principal forces Charm to tutor him? Will this be a ticket to hell or a ticket for the bad boy to find his true love? Copyrighted. ©Complete

Waveborn
Cass has no memories of her parents, only impossible dreams of waves and orcas and, sometimes, her mother's voice. When she and her adopted aunt return to the Pacific Northwest island--where her parents died twelve years before--Cass hopes the place will trigger long-buried memories. Instead, she discovers that the impossible is real, and that history is about to repeat itself. Unless she can stop it. ***Teaser*** The water hit with such a shock of cold that Cass thought she was going to pedal up and out of it again like some cartoon character. Instead, she flailed and splashed and smashed one arm against a piling as salt water poured into her raincoat & filled her shoes. "How do you like it?" Jason yelled. She spun until she could make out his form, black against gray sky. "What?" she sputtered. She dragged one arm from the water long enough to shove wet hair from her face. Jason became clearer: black hair dark above his yellow raincoat, arms crossed over his chest. "What the hell are you talking about?" "I asked how you like it, going for a swim in this water." She was open-mouthed with disbelief. It was a bad idea; a surge lifted her and slapped salt water into her mouth. Bile burned her throat as she coughed and all the while she was still flailing at the water, fighting the drag of shoes and clothes to keep afloat. She should kick them off-that's what you were supposed to do if you fell into the ocean with your clothes on-but she was only a dozen feet from the dock. Besides, it was her only coat. Jason watched her the way she'd watch a barracuda. "I know you're following me." "Following you?" What. The. Hell. She gave a mighty kick and tossed her coat onto the dock. Jason just stood there. "I nearly drowned last week, you know that? Now you show up as if nothing happened." "Last week," Cass said slowly, "I was in Argentina." Whatever he'd seen, it wasn't her.Complete

The mermaid's secret tale 🧜🏼♀️₊˚✧𑁍.ೃ࿔*:･🫧 / Aqualuna / Comiverse universe
Rachel always knew she was different. By day, she was just another face in the crowded halls of Crestwood High-a quiet, bookish girl who kept her head down, aced her classes, and secretly crushed on Mike, the boy who made her heart race. But when the sun dipped below the horizon, everything changed. The moment moonlight touched her skin, Rachel transformed into a breathtaking mermaid with shimmering moonlight-purple scales, her legs vanishing into a powerful tail. She had spent her whole life hiding her secret. No one could know what she was-especially not Mike. If anyone discovered the truth, she could be captured, experimented on, or worse. But the ocean was calling her more than ever before. Strange things had begun happening in the waters near Crestwood. Whispers of a forgotten prophecy, a mermaid kingdom in danger, and a mysterious force rising from the depths haunted Rachel's dreams. Then, one night, Rachel witnesses something she wasn't supposed to see-a group of dangerous hunters searching for something... or someone. They spoke of an ancient relic lost beneath the waves, one that could grant ultimate power to whoever wielded it. And they were getting closer. Rachel must decide: continue living her double life in secrecy or embrace the ocean's call to protect her kind. But as she dives deeper into the mystery, she realizes she's not the only one keeping secrets. Because Mike? He's hiding something too... ~🧜♀️🫧⭐️🔱~
