~A Former Wattpad Featured Story~ After a night of drinks and fun at a bachelor party, Ricardo Gonzalez and six others find themselves stuck inside an abandoned hospital the morning after. Having little to no memory of the events from the previous night, he wakes up confused inside a locked room. A short moment later a voice from a radio emerges, informing him and the others of their current situation. On the wall is a list of rules written in red, and the rules talk of two wolves among the group. The participants are being forced to play a sick variation of the party game called 'Mafia.' In order to survive, the rest must find out the identity of the two wolves and kill them before they do. Only one side may remain, and only death awaits the participants if the time limit is reached and there is no clear victor. Will Ricardo have what it takes to survive this ordeal? If it comes down to it, will he have it in him to kill his own family? - - - [For those asking/assuming, this story has absolutely *nothing* to do with werewolves] This is my oldest work, and probably my worst one in terms of writing skill lol but please do enjoy it!

A broken engagement sends Graciela Harper crawling back to Heron Creek with her tail between her legs, but she finds the sleepy little town too changed to set her life right. Not even her budding drinking problem can obscure her Gramps's failing health, or erase the mental picture of her first love happily married to her childhood best friend. To top it all off, she's having a heck of time convincing the town's dashing young mayor of her unfit-for-dating status. When the ghost of 18th century lady pirate Anne Bonny starts insisting on a near daily audience, Graciela has to confront something else she never expected-being certifiably nuts at twenty-five years old. Her brand new "I don't give a crap" attitude makes it easy to dismiss the mysterious threats that seem to be tied to her search for more information on the long dead pirate, but when her family becomes a target, Gracie knows she needs to find out why the ghost insists on being a constant, reeking companion. If Graciela can put aside her prejudice against people without a pulse, she may discover that Anne Bonny's problems are intricately linked with her own. The past harbors answers could help the cantankerous spirit find closure, but she is, after all, already dead. If Graciela doesn't move fast, she might find herself doing the haunting, instead of the other way around.
