Kindness had always been Virginia McKinnon's greatest virtue. On an unsuspecting summer night, when warned of a dangerous stranger roaming around the fields at night, all she had to do is not let him inside. No matter how helpless he might seem.

The morgue is a place of silence, protocol, and the cold reality of death-the perfect sanctuary for Ash. As a forensic assistant with a penchant for heavy metal and a "wake-and-bake" morning routine, Ash finds comfort in the clinical detachment of the autopsy suite. She's used to the coppery tang of old blood and the hiss of negative pressure vents. But when Jane Doe 7 arrives on her table-a victim of manual strangulation-the silence of the morgue begins to feel like a threat. What starts as a morbid curiosity turns into a living nightmare when Ash realizes she isn't alone among the dead. A shadow is watching from the corners of the lab, a predator who knows her name, her habits, and the intimate details of her life outside the hospital walls. From chilling phone calls whispered in German to "gifts" left in her locked apartment and car-an antique silver thimble and surveillance photos of her most vulnerable moments-the "Narr" (the Fool) is playing a calculated game. He isn't just a killer; he's an insider with admin-level access, turning Ash's workplace into his own personal observation deck. As the line between the hunter and the hunted blurs, Ash must use her forensic training to process the living instead of the dead. With her two best friends, Leo and Chloe, caught in the crosshairs, Ash digs into the "Unlisted Inventory"-a trail of forgotten women that the system has discarded, but the Narr has claimed. In a world of woven filigree and formaldehyde, Ash must find the man behind the mask before she becomes the final item in his macabre inventory. Because in this game, the Narr is writing the script-and he's decided that Ash is the leading lady.

Samara, a young woman from London, visits Bran Castle in Romania during a Halloween night. Somehow, she's always felt drawn to the story of Vlad the Impaler, the historical character who allegedly inspired the writer, Bram Stoker, to write his Count Dracula. Annoyed by her noisy friends, she strolls behind her group when they enter the castle and thus gets approached by their tall dark and handsome guide. Samara can't fight the attraction she feels for him, even after he claims to be Vlad Dracul himself, obviously making fun of her...or? At the end of the tour, unable to resist her curiosity, she follows the guide through a dark corridor and time travels to another time, a late medieval world populated by very unusual vampires, where she had once belonged. The mysterious guide turns out to be her husband, none less than Vlad III, the Prince of Wallachia, the Impaler... Dracula. Samara's memories start to trickle back slowly, both good and bad. The man she loves so much that she feels overcome by her feelings for him is not exactly as he was when she left him before, when she... died. A lot of things have changed in her absence, in six hundred years. But she is changed too, having grown up in the 21st century this time around, she is not quite the same girl as when she lived in Vlad's castle, in the late medievals. Will the great love they feel for each other despite their long separation be strong enough to overcome all their differences? Will Samara and Vlad accept each other as they are now and fight for their love? Will they defend it in the dangerous world they live in, full of people, or better vampires, who would rather see them apart? In this place where nothing and no one is what they really seem to be at first sight? Cover: @WakeWriteWrath

In 1692 Salem, Melinda Warren carries the weight of her magic alone-until Matthew Tate, a charismatic stranger, steps into her firelit world. His stormy eyes and whispered secrets spark a forbidden love that feels like fate. But as their powers intertwine, shadows grow: a locket too warm to the touch, visions of flames, a heartbeat that isn't hers. In a town consumed by paranoia, trust is a dangerous spell. Matthew's charm hides a warlock's hunger, and Melinda's heart may be his ultimate prize. As betrayal tightens its grip, one truth emerges: love reveals power, but only betrayal defines it. This is the untold story of the Warren line's founder-the spark that burned so the Charmed Ones could rise. A gothic tale of magic, sacrifice, and a curse forged in a pewter heart. Will you follow Melinda into the flames?

After years apart, Lucas -the rebellious rock-hearted wanderer who always lived on the edge- crossed paths with Raven once again. Since the Titans had gone their separate ways, life had changed for both of them. Lucas didn't return out of nostalgia; he came back to meet his son, a boy who had inherited his wild curiosity and free spirit. Raven, nervous but secretly excited, wasn't ready for what seeing him again would stir inside her. That excitement quickly turned into frustration. Memories hit her like a punch: the boundaries Lucas crossed, the promises he broke, and how he left before their child was even born. The resentment she had buried never truly faded. Living close again brought out the best and worst in them. Their chemistry was undeniable... but so were the unresolved wounds. Raven couldn't stand how Lucas acted like the past had simply vanished, while he struggled to prove he had changed - even when he didn't fully know how. One night, after laughter slipped into silence, Raven finally confronted him: "You can't just show up and pretend nothing happened." From that moment on, their relationship became a push-and-pull of desire, anger, and emotional conflict. Both wanted to protect their son, but it wasn't easy to coexist between arguments, buried feelings, and old scars that still hurt. Even so, they chose to try - to build a home where Lucas's music and Raven's magic could live together, where love could be honest, imperfect, and real. This marks the beginning of a new chapter: a story of second chances, open wounds, growth... and a chaos that refuses to slow down.

She thought it was love. It was possession. Anooshia Haaron was ordinary. A university student. A chai lover. A girl with simple dreams. Until the night in the library. Until him . Salar Sikandar. Amber eyes. Old money. Dangerous obsession. He had watched her for two years. Every move. Every breath. Every secret. And now he was ready to claim what he considered his . "You are mine, Anooshia.

Victor Frankenstein x Oc "Still Alive..... Killing time at the cemetery...."

My entry for the ONC 2026.

Brin wakes to fire and blood. Fae monsters descend on her once-peaceful village, leaving her best friend at death's door. All hope seems lost... until one of the monsters offers to save him. For a price. Brin accepts. Now, whenever she falls asleep, Brin finds herself face to face with the Fae. With each night, their time together transforms from a nightmare into something almost pleasant. But Brin's been told her entire life that Fae are bloodthirsty, cruel, and never to be trusted... no matter how charming this one seems. She flees to the north, hoping to find aid from a sect of holy warriors. Along the way she meets Renner, a mercenary who agrees to act as guide and guard. He's far from charming and the two find themselves constantly at odds, but he's her best chance of making it north in one piece. Their journey is fraught with danger. Fae prowl the wilderness, preying on mortals. Towns that should be safe are filled with humans in league with monsters. And every night, the Fae waits in her dreams. What to expect: 1. A heroine with strong moral convictions. 2. Romantic fantasy with a fairly dark plot, but plenty of cozy moments. 3. Strong emphasis on atmosphere and thoughtful story development. 4. Slow-burn, series-long enemies-to-friends-to-lovers arc. 5. Themes of found family, self-sacrifice, and unconditional love. 6. A fun twist on the "chosen one" trope.

Death is inevitable. I knew that when I stepped through the abandoned Mausoleum doors to eavesdrop on the dead, hoping to catch my mother's whispers.

When it is due to admit that I heard his forbidden words on that dark night. Will he be the death I fear so immensely or Will l be the resurrection he so devotedly believes l am.

When a royal vampire kidnaps their friend, three magic-wielding young women defy their kingdom's laws and journey into a world of monsters to save her before the next full moon turns her into one of them. (New chapters every Friday. I hope you enjoy my mini Jelsa project and I have many more Jelsa and other fanfics on the way but in the meantime please enjoy this )
