Siblings Bruno and Dainty were inseparable. Well, for the most part. Stereotypical siblings. Sometimes they get along, sometimes they don't. But they knew they had to stick together, for this road called "life" will eventually become harder for them.
When they found out their dad had been in a state he'd hidden from them for years after their mother passed away, claiming it was to "protect them", they knew something had to happen, they knew that they should try and help their dad.
However, their life changed completely when they were unable to save their dad. They lost the only family they had, until they were adopted by a certain family that would become their forever home...

[COMPLETED] Have you ever seen Disney's Tangled? If you have, do you know about how Repunzel isn't supposed to leave the tower because her 'mother' said that the world is a cruel place? Well, the same thing happened to Ellie. Just, she doesn't live in a tower or has freakishly long hair. She always looked out of the window to catch a small glimpse of the outside world. She never saw much except for the tips of grass in front of her and the grey, almost black, road that lay in between two houses. Oh! And her mother and father are not nice like in the movie. They treated her like a slave in the house and... Did I mention her room was actually the basement? If I didn't, now you know. Enter Aidan Walker. Ellie's twin brother. Aidan's life is opposite to Ellie's. He has everything severed to him in a golden plater. His every wish is fulfilled and is quite popular when it comes to media. To this day the media follows him around. Despite all the attention and everything being the way he wants, he still feels like something important is missing. He was raised in a well-doing family that took care of him like he was their own. He's well behaved. Both of them don't know about each other. Both of them find out on the same day. After finding out that he has a twin sister still alive and living, Aidan wasted no time in reaching out to her. After that, let's just say the first meeting isn't exactly how Aidan planned it to be. ❗BEFORE YOU READ❗ This book is yet to be edited. There are a lot of things that don't make sense or don't go well together. And there are a lot of grammar and spelling mistakes. Read at your own risk.Complete

Being alone? Check. Being afraid? Check. Being abused? Check times 3. Honestly, my life wasn't this bad before, not until I ended in foster care... SIKE! My life was always bad. From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?'

Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends.

Fnia: Brothers In Arms (read desc.)
This is the story about twin brothers Trevor and Travis, who live in a small town, and don't have many friends, but damn are they the perfect pair. They live alone in an apartment and are each 17 years old. While they are twin brothers and get along perfectly, they are very different. Trevor: he's very shy, and doesn't do well meeting new people, let alone attractive robots. While he doesn't do well with new people, he is always considerate of others, and tries to help as much as possible. It takes a lot to get him angry, and usually if he does, people think it's more adorable than scary. Travis: he's very outgoing and extroverted, and never gets nervous around people. He can meet a new person, and the situation is normally perfect. That being said, he's very protective of Trevor, and he can get angry very easily. If someone makes Trevor feel bad for only a second, Travis will start cussing and try threatening, even if Trevor accepts the apology of the one who made him feel bad. While they are likeable people when happy, they have never found love once in their lives, and even if they wanted to, they both know something will happen if they try. BUT they were both born with something special: multiple vocal cords, so many in fact, they can make any sound they want without even trying, and can even sound like an entire band is playing a song with just their mouths, which awakened their love for singing. PLEASE NOTE THESE COUPLE THINGS: 1. This is actually my first ever novel, and I'm writing it on a F***ING PHONE, so sorry if it's crappy. 2. I know what people are thinking and I will NOT be putting any NSFW scenes.Complete
Always on Your Side (NaNoWriMo 2019)
Fresh into her last semester of high school, Len is looking forward to three things: spending time with her recent close-friend-turned-girlfriend, completing a summer road trip with her brother Brendon, and finally, getting the hell out of her hometown, to an out-of-state college where she'll be able to reinvent herself as whoever she would be if her Catholic mom wasn't always breathing down her neck. But then Brendon commits suicide, leaving behind a cell phone with a series of messages meant for Len alone. To unlock the messages, and find whatever Brendon wanted her to find, Len must confront painful memories - and painful truths about herself. *DO NOT READ if you are triggered by suicide or suicidal ideation* (This is a very very very rough draft.)Complete
Perish
They were split apart as children. Reunited by force. Bound by secrets no one dares to name. At seven, Elisha was dropped into the foster care system, cold beds, colder hands, cut off from her twin sister and older brothers without explanation. Aurora stayed behind, raised by a mother who sold her body and a stepfather who promised to come back and never did. Eight years pass. The brothers return, dragging both girls into a home that barely feels like theirs. But this isn't a reunion, it's a collision. Elisha hides her trauma behind silence and sharpened edges, a hidden fire in her. Aurora masks hers with perfection, hunger, and a constant need to be chosen. Neither of them talks about the past. Neither of them knows how. Love simmers in forbidden places. Truths unravel in dangerous ways. And while the family tries to rebuild, they do so blindly, each of them hiding pieces of the story that might save the others, or destroy them. This isn't about healing. It's about surviving what no one else sees and what happens when survival isn't enough. Until everyone perishes. *Includes a good amount of smut. (MAJOR PLOT TWISTS) *************************************************** * MAJOR TRIGGER WARNING. * Rape.Abuse.Suicide.Death.Violence.Psychotic. Killing. Obsession. Deranged thoughts. * There will not be any warnings before triggers appear in the book. You have been warned.
