Michael Townsend has always been an expert (a natural, you could say) at reading people's emotions and suppressing his own. Having been raised in an extremely abusive environment, Michael only knows how to expect rage. Michael doesn't know love. Dean Redding is the son of incarcerated serial killer, Daniel Redding. After a horrible childhood and being forced to do things he wishes he'd never had to do, Dean has become as guarded as you can expect. Michael and Dean have only hated each other since the latter arrived to the program. But what will happen to them when a traumatic case makes them both relive their childhoods? Will it pull them closer, or will they drift even further apart? Dean Redding x Michael Townsend

April's never been one to hold grudges. Well.. She would like to say that, at least, but if she's being honest, she'll hold a grudge until she's six feet under. There's only three unforgiveable crimes that she's vowed to never forgive. One: the man who left her mother at the altar, who, if he'd stayed, her life would be very, very different. Two: the man who'd taken advantage of her. And three: her mother, the one person she thought she could trust in the world who ended up hurting her the most. But she's still her mother's daughter; had it not been for that one mistake, April would still be moving every two months with her. Innocent and happy. But that's not how life turned out. Part of her is glad-she never would have met her older sisters without that pain and betrayal. She never would have met the Hawthornes. If she can't forgive those three forever-grudges, she's determined to do everything she can to forget them. And she almost does, until her group therapy class talks about forgiveness, and the cut she thought was bandaged becomes freshly opened.

NATURALS X THE INHERITENCE GAMES CROSSOVER; GILDED BLADE AU COVER ART IS BY ME DO *NOT* USE IT Sometimes the past can be more painful than anything... Autumn Hawthorne, the youngest-and the forgotten-Hawthorne sibling, was disowned by Skye at the age of twelve. The reason? The world assumed it was because she wore sweatpants and a graphic tee to a gala and she ruined the family reputation. The media was told that she was too much. In reality, she had learned a long time ago that her grandfather was not a good man. He ruined lives. That charity gala was an excuse to draw attention to herself, so she could bring the empire Tobias built crumbling down. She gathered evidence, ready to ruin his life, knowing she'd ruin her own, too. She did not succeed. Disowned, she lived an ordinary life until... At thirteen, the Naturals, an elite FBI group of teens with extraordinary abilities used to find murderers, took her in and she has spent her previous five years solving cases and saving lives. And now? Now the second annual Grandest Games just ended. Now the Hawthorne Heiress, Avery Kylie Grambs, is missing. And now the Hawthornes seek FBI help, not realizing that the sister that they once left behind now holds the heiress's fate in her hands. But when Autumn and the Naturals take the case, what happens when somebody else gets hurt? As time goes on, Autumn learns secrets and lies and nobody knows what is real and what isn't.
