In this story, Bella Swan gets accepted to Meyer University where she meets and befriends the Cullens and Hales. Here, she not only finds great friends and the love of her life, but also finds out about her family's past and reveals her path to the mystery ahead. Will she be able to make the right decisions and learn to trust? Read it. Love it. Remember it. ;)

A little piece of the story:

I parked my new car (a surprise gift from Charlie for getting accepted into the Meyer University Architecture program with a full scholarship) in the student lot in back of my dorm building. I was so excited to have gotten a spot in the coveted honors dorms. Each dorm was very spacious, had a very nice looking private bathroom to be shared with your roommate and had a window seat! I went back up to my room where my roommate had already arranged her furniture on her side of the room and had set mine up too. Each side was identical with wooden furniture. The window seat was in the very center of the room. There was an extra-long twin sized bed on each side of the room with a small wooden chest of 3 drawers on next to each bed. Each side had a very large wooden wardrobe and a wooden desk and chair.
I was so excited to be here, I almost shrieked. My grandmother had gone to this school. She had lived in this very building, as had her father before her and his father before him. I felt more connected to Renee than ever, like I belonged here.I just hope people like me, I thought to myself as I unpacked my clothes, separating my workout clothes from my everyday clothes. I was on the soccer team back home and was hoping to join the one here, so I packed clothes for training. The summer had left me out of practice. Fortunately, I had until next semester to get back into shape.Soon the door opened and a large box came through; it was being carried by a short pixie-like girl. She didn’t seem to notice me standing there as she went to her side and dropped the box with a huge thud on her side on the room.
“Hi,” I said softly, unable to stop being nervous, “are you Alice?”

I most certainly love this story because this is very different from all the normal love stories. It has a little bit of the normal world and also not to mention the underworld mafia.

Its starts off with Bella as an abused slave who is eventually bought by the Cullens, where sparks fly. Between this lovely romantic story taking place Carslile is also fishing out secrets which is yet to come out and when it comes its a nuclear time bomb waiting to go off. On the whole, its a story of romance suspense hurt and all the emotions one can possibly think of and more. It contains a lot of adult matters which include sex drugs and violence so people who are very sacred at heart are strictly recommended not to read it and miss it. This story is still in progress and yet to be completed. Currently 65 chapters have been written and has received and astonishing number of 23,394 reviews, hence making it one of the stories to receive the most review when in still progressive state. Read it. Love it. Remember it. ;)

A little piece of the story:

I was shocked and confused at first before the anger set in. I was standing in front of a girl, soaked with fucking orange juice, and all I could do was gape at her. Could I be any more fucking stupid?I could barely make her out across the room because it was so dark, but her eyes were clear as day. They were wide and expressive; she looked like a deer caught in some headlights. I finally snapped out of it and made a move to clean up the orange juice but evidently the girl was trained to do that shit, because she practically bumrushed me to clean it up herself. I head butted her and winced, as it hurt like hell. And in true Edward Cullen fashion, my natural response to the pain is to lash out.Evidently I scared her because she refused to make eye contact with me and she was trembling. I reached out and grabbed her wrist to stop her from fucking cleaning up, as she was being ridiculous and sketchy and I didn’t like it. It felt like she shocked me when I grabbed her, like a small jolt of static electricity coursed through me. She finally looked up at me and when her eyes met mine I was completely stunned.Her cheeks were red and chapped from the sun, a big ass bruise on the side of her face that looked like it came from someone’s hand. Her eyes were full of fear, a tear running down her cheek. She was troubled and frightened, that much was clear. She’d had it rough. And she was young, oh so fucking young. She couldn’t have been any older than me, as her face was still rounded slightly from youth. There was still that innocence in her face, despite the abuse and wariness that was evident.

Deconstructing Dracula

Deconstructing Dracula by hmonster4

Straight from the brilliant mind of hmonster4, who also brought us 1/2 of Breakfast at Tiffany's, I present to you, Deconstructing Dracula. Now, I'll be honest, I've passed this story up a few times because I didn't like the title. I know, so very prejudice of me :( I am so glad I finally decided to read it. It's definitely on my top favorites list. And hmonster4, if you are reading this, I love the fact that Emmett is from WV in this story, because coincidentally, that's where I'm from. :)

This entire story is about Bella doing a dissertation on Dracula. If you are unfamiliar with the story, it's okay. You aren't required to be to enjoy this.

Bella has just gained enough courage to end her four year relationship with Mike. He never believed in her, and thought her work was unimportant although it was an obvious obsession to Bella. Months later, her best friend and room mate, Rosalie, is offered a job in London for six months. After some hesitation, Bella finally decides to go with her. She picks up and leaves everything behind, which is completely out of the norm for her.

On the flight there, she meets the fabulous Emmett and they become fast friends. Throughout the story, he is her shoulder. Once in London, she meets with a professor to discuss her dissertation. Jasper Whitlock. Jasper invites her out for a few drinks with he and his wife, Alice. Alice's brother, Edward joins them. Edward does everything he can to push Bella's buttons and she finds him infuriating as well as unbelievably attractive.

They play a game of cat and mouse until Bella finally gives in. But as soon as she does, she discovers that someone in Edward's past life still haunts him. And upon that discovery, realizes that she will be haunted by Edward's ghost, too. Without waiting for an explanation, Bella storms out of Edward's apartment. His life.

All the while, Emmett has ironically been try to win over Rosalie, but Rosalie is too stubborn to accept anything Emmett has to offer. Bella and Emmett try to find an attraction in each other to get Edward and Rosalie out of their minds, but it just doesn't work.

Then, Bella must decide. She cannot get Edward out of her thoughts and after hearing his explanation, she must decide if it is all worth going for. But, she is also supposed to return to the States. Edward has no intention of leaving London. How will they resolve their issues? Will Bella finally let herself live enough to enjoy her undeniable connection with Edward?

I could go on and on about this story, but I better just stop and let you guys read it! Lots of tangles webs and unexpected emotions. I totally cried my eyes out in Chapter 15. Enjoy!

A little piece of the story:

He laughed and stared directly into my eyes. “You have no clue what to do when life is not planned out. You need to learn how to live on the edge, to take chances.”
He stayed there, still, looking directly at me, that same self satisfied smirk on his face. I was waiting for him to do something, anything. My eyes darted quickly to his lips, then back to up. He saw it, and the smile broadened.
He reached up, and traced the edge of my lower lip with his thumb.
“It doesn’t work that way. If you want it, you have to be willing to go after it.” He could sense my indecision. “You are waiting for me to kiss you, or to touch you again. I am not going to. If you want something, you’ll need to figure out a way to go after it on your own.”
My eyes must have gone wide, as Edward laughed. “Oh this is going to be fun. You don’t take risks, and you’ve never been pushed. I am going to enjoy getting to know you, Isabella.”
It was the first time he had said my name since we met, and the sound of it gave me a chill. The man had barely even touched me, and I was ready to spontaneously combust.
“Goodnight, Isabella.”

This story is beautifully written and super easy to become addicted to. It's entirely in Edward's point of view, which is just fantastic. I cannot wait for another update! 25 chapters and counting!!

Edward Masen was turned into a Vampire in 1918 but doesn't remember who changed him. He lived out of civilization until he could control his hunger. He then decided to live amongst humans, even though he knew it was out of the ordinary for Vampires. Vampires killed humans and lived as nomads as far as he knew.

One evening, while looking for "dinner" he finds Bella Swan coming out of the library. With every intention of killing her, her approaches her. But he finds himself unable to follow through, even with her drawing scent. After a night together, he decides to let her live and have more fun with her. He constantly tells himself that it's all just a game, the charade he is keeping up, but he cannot convince himself forever. He and Bella become fairly attached to one another and he is finding it just as hard to keep his secret as it is to let her go. And he cannot feed from humans anymore. His conscience in the form of Bella's voice lays heavy on him if he tries to kill, so he resorts to animal blood.

A surprise trip to Forks leads him to meet Carlisle Cullen. He is surprised to find that Carlisle's eyes are the same color as his. Eventually, he gets to talk with Carlisle alone and finds that Carlisle has been feeding from animals for centuries. There is new hope for Edward. He believes he can change, and that he doesn't have to be like the rest of the Vampires.

But, someone is killing people on the campus where he and Bella attend school. Alice keeps in constant contact with Edward about the three Vampires she sees heading to Forks. But what happens when Bella gets wind of this?

All of the Cullens are in this, Charlie and some of the Wolf Pack...including Jacob (*swoon*). Lots of Lemons, so please, don't read it if you are under 18.

A little piece of the story:

Tonight I took the opportunity to feed this evening, since the conditions were ideal. A Monday night, too. No one was out around this part of campus, especially so close to the beginning of the school year. Except, of course, for the pale girl leaving the library just as it closed.
I followed her silently until she reached the mouth of an alleyway. I allowed my footsteps to be heard on the pavement then. The girl jumped, then caught her foot on the uneven sidewalk and dropped her books. I approached in the guise of being helpful, making my eyes wide and sincere as I offered my most charming smile.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you,” I said, handing her the fallen volumes, which I glanced over quickly. All Jane Austen. Either a helpless romantic or an English major, or both. I smiled to myself. The bookish types were good. A little tangy sometimes, but usually sweet.
“That’s all right,” she said, blushing. The blood rushing to her face combined with the breath she expelled hit me like a wrecking ball. At least, what a wrecking ball felt like to a human. She was so, so sweet…like freesias. The venom ran freely in my mouth, and I knew my black eyes frightened her. Her heart pattered quickly and she smelled of fear.
