Life's A Rollercoaster by Hopep189

(Completed/ BEING REWRITTEN!!!) "Yeah, tell me about it" Hayden voices out as she leans more into Max. I smile at the two, and look over at each of my friends one by one, and for a split second I forget all my problems, and I just remember all the adventures we went through. My smile got bigger, these people are my new family. It was hard to get where I am today but in the end it was worth it if I can stay here with the people I love and never look back. I know its never that simple but why focus on something that could happen and in the process I miss the here and now. I hold up my drink my smile never falling. I know where I belong and that's with them. I belong here with my boyfriend holding me, my friends laughing and smiling. I belong in the now, and I'm ok with that.

the dark light by magic_is_somewhere

My life was supposed to be normal. You're born, raised by good parents, go to school, make friends, graduate, get a job. You create fun memories, find the love of your life, get married, start a family, grow old, and eventually, you breathe your last. That's what life was supposed to be like for me. But instead, my life turned out to be the opposite of normal. And so it was for Chiara, Blake, Jake, Rowan, Nova, and Dijon. To tell our story, we need to go all the way back to the beginning. Before we were even born. It all started 30 years ago. April 5, 2003. a class got into an accident and when the survivors woke up, they realized something was wrong. they got powers , they got taken by scientist who started calling them the hollows. It took almost a month before they were rescued by Mr. Knight, they got taken to a secret place where they could live peacefully. that's a lie, one of the students wanted revenge and not stay hidden, so the group seperated. Every year another person got powers, and so, the search continued. But there was always one question on mr. Knight mind: Why 12 children the first time, and only one per year after that? And one thing was for sure: whenever someone gained powers, they had to give something up in return. It was never a choice. It was just the way it was. So, now that I've explained a bit about how this all started, let's fast forward to the present. It's now 2033. Mr. Knight has found 19 children, and Mr. Douglas, the leader of the other group, has found 10. That means... the 30th child is out there somewhere. Who will it be? And one more thing before I go-welcome to the world of Dark Light.

Elf Prince - Protected by the Elf Prince Part 3 by BersealiaDreamheart

Things have been a rollercoaster of a ride since I, Princess Isilme Akasha, came to the elven realm of Oira Londe. A Darkness has been plaguing the realm, causing discord and war against one clan. One such attack led me to travel with my boyfriend, Prince Adresin Gaelin, and his cousin, Prince Elluin, to the library of my ancestral castle, searching for something to cure Elluin's poisoned father. We discovered the magical healing properties of the blessed Akashan fountain water, but I also found out something horrifying. My long-lost twin brother, Keasatran Akasha, who brought the Darkness to the realm to punish the clans for ignoring our ancestor's warnings about the dire consequences of banishing humans. I refused to join him, and left with the princes and the cure in hand. After a few misadventures, and getting accidently sent to another realm, we managed to make it back in time with the cure. Now, my ancestors gave me a mission I must fulfill; to use the same sacred water to bless the four guardian shrines and save them from the Darkness that threatens to consume them. However, my brother is now somewhere in Oira Londe, after I was forced to help him return in order to recover the cure to save Elluin's father. He asked me to trust him, but can I after all he's done? With all these burdens and hardly any more answers to my gifts, can I trust my gifts and instincts to guide me when the time is right? **This novel is dedicated in loving memory to Chloë Xianah, friend of Torishima Eve, best friend of MasterMissy, and original voice actor for the ASMR Elf Prince series.

Letting Go [complete - expanding chapters during rewrite] by KarenBarkley

My name is Chloe. I live in a world where your land of heritage determines what kind of Wereanimal you'll be, and a mate can be anyone of them. The children of two different animals may be able to change into both, a huge advantage. There are also purists who think that a blood line of only one kind of animal will have stronger children, but ignoring your mate can have mental health consequences. I dream of having my own family someday, but I'm rejected. When the opportunity comes to marry my mate's twin brother I grab on with both hands in spite of not knowing anything about him. How bad can it be? Chapters are short because I posted everyday, and each chapter represents a days work. A/N in the first draft the numbers in the chapter headings were spelled out. During the expansion the chapter numbers will be digits. That way you should be able to see how far I've come.

I'll see you in hell by OliAndTheDiamonds

"No way in hell are we mates," Cameron spat, his greenish-blue eyes glinting with hatred as he sneered at me. Ignoring the sensation of my heart breaking, I lifted my head, pushing back the tears brimming in my eyes and glared at him, clenching my hands in a fist behind my back as my wolf howled in pain. "Then it's settled. I reject you as my mate Clara Smith. I don't ever want to see you again, you pathetic mute worthless loser," he shot back, walking away before I could punch the shit out of him. 'I'll see you in hell Cameron!' I mentally yelled, flipping him the bird at his retreating back. As soon as he turned the corner, I dropped the smirk on my face and slid down the wall until I was huddled on the floor and letting a solitary tear leak out of my eye as my composure crumbled. ********************************* Clara Smith and Cameron Claw are sworn enemies since the day the accident happened. So when they find out that they're mates, Cameron immediately rejects her. Broken to the core and missing her wolf, Clara turns to her family for support only to realise that the alpha's son rejecting her is the final straw. Clara hasn't spoken a single word since she was born due to reasons she doesn't even know and her family is sick of it. Thrown out onto the street, Clara struggles to survive, relying on cash from strange men and scraps from the street bins. When everything finally starts to turn around for Clara, she finds a job and home, a mysterious boy takes interest in her, suddenly Cameron wants her back.
