gothicgloom inheritance isolation vampire

Most people inherit money, grand estates or maybe a dog. Not a musty old coffin bound in reinforced chains. 
    
Carmen had been a wayward soul, living an aimless life. Then she inherited the family curse. Her instructions were simple.
    
The Keeper could never allow the coffin to be opened or confiscated. Its occupant had to remain in a state of necrosis. Otherwise, the ancient evil would be awakened.

Blessings From Above by Lets_Read_And_Chill

We often dream about living in a world far different from our own. It's nice to dream about it, after all reality is disappointing. To dream of having magic, being able to soar with dragons in a beautiful green forest. But that's all it is right? A dream.... Yeah. But not for me. I possessed the body of a fake saintess who was going to die when the real saint appeared later on in the story. This world is filled with magic. The history is so rich. But I don't wanna die! I just transported here. I don't wanna die just yet!

Undead by RA2995

Being trapped inside one place most of your life is suffocating. So I took it upon myself to go behind my mother's back every chance I got to leave. I never thought that one day I would be caught. My mother agrees to let me go to school with the neighboring pack's alpha. She only agreed to prove to me that was a monster to other species. To her a Vampire demon should never be left unattended. She may be right most of the times. This time I think my mother could be wrong. Mother doubted me only to be proved wrong. I can coexist with wolves, I've been doing it for years. Now the humans. They are tempting for a hybrid like me. I can push past their tempting blood for 8 hours each day. The thing is I might not want to but I can. Life just keep throwing obstacles my way. Now I have a beloved. An extremely tempting beloved. My demon loves the taste of blood. How long before she gets a taste or our mates?

Forgotten by crystalbooks24

//He had my hands pinned tightly above my head as I squirmed beneath him. The blade twisting between his fingers. He held it up to my throat. I was afraid but refused to show it. "Hurt me." I said between gritted teeth. He just gave me a sorrowful glance before driving the dagger into my flesh.// This is no story of love and happiness. This is a story of death and destruction. One of a man and woman who met one night and not only changed the lives of themselves, but the lives of a whole world of people. One was fire and one was water. They were perfectly balanced. Until one night when the sun fell just below the tip of the tallest castle, the balance faltered, and all hell broke loose. Fire on fire. This is no memorable story that was told on for generations after. No. This is a story of the forgotten. ------------------------------------------- The prince and princess are forced to marry out of their fathers hatred for one another. Yet, there's a falter to the plan and murder gets involved. Will the two be able to put aside years of pent up hatred, or will love conquer all? #2 in tragiclovestory Socials: @0fficialcrystalwebb on tiktok
