A witch's curse turns cruel Lord Caspian into a beast, and causes Transylvania to suffer a century of snowfall and blood-shed. When the Hershel men trespass on the Beast's property during a hunt, Lord Caspian captures and threatens them with death. Harlan Hershel offers his daughter Rosalind to the beast for a month to save his sons. But when the Beast sees Rosalind, he believes she is the reincarnation of his late wife and becomes fiercely drawn to her. Though terrified at first, Rosalind grows fond of the abominable lord. The closer she gets to the secrets Caspian keeps, especially of the mysterious stranger in the violin room, the closer she comes to the darkness waking inside her. When Rosalind's true calling is discovered, that she is the one prophesied to kill the lord, her burning desire for him threatens to destroy the person she once was, and all of Transylvania. Rosalind must decided if she is strong enough to destroy Caspian and end his rein of blood, or give into the dark love she has found and become a monster herself. Beauty and the Beast meets Dracula.

Made it through Round 1!!! Woohoo! It's the ultimate fandom crossover. While the IT Crowd's Roy, Moss, and Jen are going about their business, a strange figure steps through the infamous green door...It's Steve Harrington, and he's here to fight a crack in space-time, or to be more accurate, space-fandom. Multiple portals opened throughout multiple fandom universes are causing chaos across dimensions. Of course, a trusty baseball bat and some limited knowledge of IT probably aren't going to help, but it's worth a try. Did I mention Dustin is there? Also, Dustin is there. But yeah. It's mostly Steve. Steve is still sad about Nancy, who he caught fooling around with Jonathan Byers on the side. He's pretty torn up, that Steve. Until a new true love comes along, one that is definitely doomed from the start... **No longer being updated for the foreseeable future.**

Being a detective in a magical kingdom filled with all manner of creatures sounds like the most exciting job in the world, but Mortan Stark will tell you otherwise; his life seems to mostly consist of tracking unicorns, vanishing mud and fixing the Wall, the impenetrable barrier against the outside world. Until he is approached with the offer to be the saviour of the kingdom, that is.

The war against vampires and the disease that creates them is unlike any other humanity has ever faced. With one bite, people are transformed into enemy combatants. No matter how loyal, how well-trained, or how disciplined someone is, the result is always the same. Each person is plundered for information, then pleasure, and then fed back into the conflict to destroy everything they value. Sergeant Wren Horan leads a squad whose sole purpose is to find and kill such vampires. On one fateful mission, she encounters more than a group of fledglings. She walks into a massacre and faces what she fears most: turning. But when she wakes up, it's not as a mindless fledgling. It's as something else entirely.

But there are people all too happy to misuse their Bod Mods without repercussion and restriction and Meiha has to sort this before chaos befalls her city. Written for Open Novella Contest II.

The year is 2113, and almost all the world's problems have been single-handedly solved with a shocking breakthrough - of how to store and transfer souls.

However, despite the prosperity of the world as a whole, only a few rich enough can afford extra souls for themselves.

Owen is stricken to discover that his daughter has fallen to a disease that will kill her in a short period of time.

Enna has something in common with the young Lorenzo de' Medici: no one mourns her father's death. But Lorenzo lives in a palace, surrounded by family and friends, holding the future of Florence in his very hands; Enna, instead, has no one and nothing left, including the reins of her own life. She has to come face to face with the Grim Reaper before she finds hope, and a new place to call home. She's not a child anymore, but she fits in with the orphans and foundlings living at the 'Spedale degli Innocenti'. It's a hard life, still not harder than the one she's known on the streets. However, something unsettling is unfolding inside the walls of the hospital, and Enna discovers the existence of something worse than the Reaper himself, something darker. Bloodthirsty creatures with uncanny features steal children in the night, though no one else seems to notice, or care. Enna is the only person truly willing to unravel the mystery, to save innocent lives, and above all, she shall not wait quietly for her turn to vanish. With a criminal dwarf as unlikely ally, she shall stand against a nightmare. - Entry for The Open Novella Contest 2019
