MIDDLE GROUND
What if your family made a deal with demons of the night and now they've come back to collect on that IOU? What if you are the IOU? Evelyn has finally finished her academic career and is ready to get to work on her corporate career. Little does she know she's been promised to a clan of vampires due to an ancient treaty that signed away her life. Evelyn's life is changed forever when a beautiful, dominant, dark demon kidnaps her. She can't lean on logic to find her footing in this middle ground. *** Please know there are mature parts to this book. If you are sensitive (like myself, so no judgement here xoxo) you might not want to read every chapter. I will try to announce trigger warnings upon editing.

Captive{ated}
"First you captivated me... then you held me captive." Evelyn was like most college-aged girls working a part-time job when she met Caleb, who came in to her life when she wanted him least but needed him most. He captivated her. By the end of summer, she had fallen in love with him. It was then that he wanted her to meet his parents. And that's when everything changed. Caleb was not the man Evelyn thought he was. He came from a secluded village that did things much differently from the rest of society. Isolated in one of the most sparsely populated areas of the country, it was as if they live in their own little world. They were a traditional village for the most part, but there were some aspects that they did much differently than any other, especially in the ways of courtship. It didn't take long for Evelyn to realize one thing: once you were brought home to meet the parents, there was no escape.Complete![Tumblefields [ONC 2021]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/260067334-256-k361548.jpg)

Sound Mind & Heart
AOT Various × Fem! Reader| y/n was a glutton for smiles and laughter. Hearing and seeing others happy gave her some sort of fulfillment.
