Meredith had always known about magic. Her family was magic, one of the most powerful mage lines out there. Having lost her parents to all the fighting though, she stayed far away from it, focusing on school and lading a primarily normal life. 

Until magic came knocking on her door. 

Someone in her family murdered one of the Shade vampires, and under treaty law, they must offer up a life in exchange. Mages are too precious, too valuable, but a single girl who refused to dance to their tune, well, not as much. Meredith is thrust into the world of the dark as a sacrifice to pay for her family's crimes, and she finds herself at the mercy of a cold vampire who hungers for her body and soul

Somethings are inescapable. 

The dark past of her parents who she's never met. 

The power of creatures that thrive in the night.

The call and will of magic she's fled from.

While Meredith may not have signed up for the world of magic and the clash between the vampires and mages, she is now deep in the murky waters that divide the two. What lies in her family's past? Can she figure out the man who is now her owner? What does she do when her magic finally awakens and breaks free like a desperate animal free of its chains?

One can run from magic, but it always gives chase.

Two brides. A love to die for. Let corpses litter the cathedral, drained bodies taking the place of roses. For one way or another- Vows will be exchanged. _________ Sapphic vampire-werewolf erotica, loosely based on Bram Stoker's Dracula. This gothic horror is set in an alternate universe in the Regency and Victorian Eras. _________ In 1814, Lady Marienne is left for dead on the streets of London. With her final breath, she makes an oath to the Goddess of Darkness, cursing herself to an eternity as a vampire. Marienne's lover, Lady Elisabeta, believing her to be truly gone, flings herself to her own demise. When Lady Marienne rises from the grave, she finds that the love of her life has ended hers. In her moment of despair, she calls upon the Goddess of Moons to bring back her lost love, inadvertently cursing her to reincarnate as a werewolf. Eighty years later, Marienne tracks down the reincarnated Lady Elisabeta, only to find that she has no memory of her past life and is now engaged to a Mr. Jonathan Harker. Marienne will take back her lost love, even if it means setting the world on fire. Lovers reunite in a dark entwining of souls; a morbid wedding of ghouls and ghosts. _______________ Warning This is an erotic romance and is rated mature (18+) for explicit content (smut, lol), as well as dark themes and potential triggers - blood/gore, and there's some murder (cause it's a vampire book, duh!) Basically, not recommended for younger audiences. _______________ Written for ONC2024 using prompts: "Horror is in the eye of the beholder." "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." "I will become as monstrous as I must"

UPDATED WEEKLY He finally released my legs, allowing me to slide down his body until my feet hit the floor, but that was as far as he let me go. Heat was radiating off him scorching me all the way down my spine as he held me tightly against him. His quick breaths were falling on the back of my neck with a tingling warmth that brought goosebumps to the surface of my skin. Placing one large hand on my shoulder, he wrapped my long brown hair around his other. Gently, he tugged on my dark mane, pulling my head to the side and exposing the tender column of my neck. Bringing his nose down to the crook there, he inhaled deeply, a rumbling "mmmm" escaping his lips. My mouth went dry. "Are-" I swallowed. "Are you going to mark me?" I manage in a stuttered whisper. Book Blurb: Dr. Willa Grey has developed a little bit of a performance problem... Willa has a plan for how she wants to spend her life.
