THEY CALL HIM RECKLESS

That was an understatement.

Sebastian was the most attractive, dangerous, horrifying man in the entire state of Washington.

He had secrets, secrets in that dark past of him, and I always struggled to understand his motive.

By daytime, he was sitting in class, silent, and taking notes all while doing good on his tests, and by the end of class, his dark eyes were on me, with that look I couldn't comprehend.

He is not who I imagine.

I feel like I know him, and then I don't. I find his motive, and then I find I'm wrong.

But I can't focus on him right now... there's someone out there, watching me. I need to keep my guard up, but at the same time...

I have a feeling Sebastian is centered around it.

I ask him, but he just teases me, he just dodges the question.

Sebastian... can you ever stand in the light? Or is the darkness the safest place for you?

I can see in those eyes... you have plans for me.

I just have to find out what.

Murder cases have been going on... who could it be? (Ongoing)

The mysterious homocide of Jasper Kane's father has baffled the police, and as Jasper begins to search for the killer, new secrets are unfolded.

Who killed Emily Pearson and why? Join me as I tell you the tale of Emily's demise. Do you think you can figure it out before the end? I don't think you will.

This is an old discontinued story I had written back in high school, I might pick it up again if this gains any traction.Basically, it tells the story of Dwight, the typical nervous college kid, and his group of friends. Things kind of dip in his life however when things go awry with his crush.

Dear Iris,

It’s me, your sister.

I’m writing to you because you may be visited by the authorities. I may have committed a crime. But don’t worry. This email is untraceable, at least it should be. You will find that I am being looked for. But it's not my fault. Mostly. The important thing is that I need help. I am coming to visit you. Don’t be angry when I come. And don't stress out. You need sleep, after all. If you have questions, ask me in three days. I’ll be with you soon. Tell mom and dad. But not about the crime.

Love,

Thalia King

I powered off my pc. Thalia left for college 4 years ago. The day she left, I was only 14, and mad. We haven’t talked since.

She doesn’t even know mom passed away.

I drifted off, remembering the day Thalia left.

En-pathos: in passion or suffering, from the greek word empatheia.

"If someone where to ask me if these 'gifts' are a blessing or a curse I would most definitely say its a curse. Dealing with me own life, emotions, memories and action is already hard enough but adding onto that without any control and so suddenly is certainly a curse but the gods."

Ember Hera is certainly an extraordinary or abnormal (however you see it that is), human being. Given a blessing or as she finds it, a curse, she is either way not normal. Even without her powers Ember has a past filled with sorrow and maybe pity when viewed by other people, losing her parents at the age of three and being raised by an aunt that is struggling herself is not easy. To add on to the fact she never got know her parents, she finds out her parents were murdered, brutally. A crime of passion maybe or just plain revenge Ember decides that she is going to catch the person responsible, but can she handle it? She's only 21 and still in college fighting everyday to be good student and study well, not only for a good job but for a job with great meaning to her. Will she be able to manage being a regular college student with these 'gifts' and trying to find her parents killer?

This story is categorized as a fantasy-mystery-thriller, with crime. And don't worry I don't write books without romance, but in the end it shows views of different perspectives that humans have to go through, it tells us that humans experience every emotion differently and gives an understanding that we cannot judge a persons behavior without looking at their emotions and memories that lead to their actions. That's my goal anyways, hope you enjoy!
