    Summary

    "The art of calling something into existence is not a peaceful endeavor.

    Perhaps that’s why mothers cradle their bloody cooing babes after birth, pressing them close to their chests. They press promises of the world into their tender skin as an instinctive bond intertwines them as surely as a single being. Maker and made. Protection and protected. 

    Mel isn’t given any promises at her creation. 

    Lightning stolen from the sky and warped through impossible instruments forces life into her with a burning current. It races through her uncontrollably, compelling her heart to give that first fateful pulse. 

    Life takes Mel in both hands as it drags her forth.

    Her creator is silent."

    OR

    What if Frankenstein had agreed to make the creature a companion? What if Mel was created out of the deepest affection and the lowest of threats?

    Summary

    Melissa King did not have the best of prospects. She had a suitable dowry, a respectable family, and she was pretty enough. However, she also came with a big stipulation: her husband would not only have to provide for her, but also for her twin sister. Mel would not marry a man who did not let Rebecca King live with them.

    With this big of an obstacle in her way, Mel should have been out looking for a husband as often as she possibly could.

    She was not.

    OR: Miss Mel King desperately needs a husband, but has been avoiding the marriage mart like the plague. When her friend Miss Samira Mohan persuades her to come to London for the social season, Mel finds herself growing closer to a strange and handsome man with his own handful of secrets tucked close to his chest.

    Summary

    One minute, she was securely on her feet, crossing the road on what she’d thought was a green light. The next, someone had swept her up into the air while a car horn honked loudly at her. Mel wasn’t able to process a single thing before she was suddenly on the ground again, now on the other side of the street.

    “Woah,” Mel breathed, her heart beating unnaturally fast in her chest. What had just happened?

    “Are you okay?” A male voice asked her.

    Mel looked up, and was met with …

    Spider-Man.

    The Spider-Man.

    Summary

    Sometimes she'll meet a kid and wonder.

    It’s usually something small that catches her; a familiar shape to their eyes, the exact tilt of their smile, a little mannerism that makes something snag for a second before she brushes it off.

    Though, it doesn't even cross her mind when she meets Penny Langdon. She just sees a little girl with blonde pigtails and pink glasses standing beside her father, and all Mel thinks is that she's cute.

    -

    (or, the one where Mel donated her eggs to pay for med school.)
