The pale stars were sliding into their places. The whispering of the leaves was almost hushed. All about them it was still and shadowy and sweet. It was that wonderful moment when, for lack of a visible horizon, the not yet darkened world seems infinitely greater-a moment when anything can happen, anything you believed in. It's the most frightful time of the day-or evening. It's when all the monsters come out, vampires, werewolves, ghosts, and other unnatural things. But most people don't know it, they just go about their own businesses, frolicking around-not having a care in the world. It is in these times that they start to disappear.
Distant screams, forbidding blood, creatures that lurk in the shadows. Within these shadows lies a deep legend that has been long forgotten...until now.
Scarlett and her friends have been warped back into a horrifying legend that, to only one, was believed to be a myth. Now they must face the vicious creatures that dwell deep within the old library and murderous betrayals. With the stakes now higher than ever, one must choose between insanity and death. And what the hell is up with this blood oath that Scarlett is to repay?
Their time now running out, they must survive until dawn and escape the accursed library for their own lives. But these creatures aren't going to let them easily go astray, dusk till dawn do they hunt, and they'll stop at nothing to make sure that no one sees the light of day again.

Rosalie's mother is a lawyer and her father is a person who looks at stars. She was thankful to have a house like that. As Rosalie and her friends circled around sitting in camping chairs next to the huge fancy RV her father sat outback next to the river she saw a shooting star had fallen from the milky way and landed into the river. Everyone was shocked and scared. Was it an Alien? Or something more sinister and dangerous? Or was it nothing to be afraid of?

Rosalie got a closer look at the star to see the star had turned into a gemstone necklace. Her friends let her keep it. What she didn't know was that the necklace had special extraordinary powers and other supernatural creatures are after the gemstone necklace. Rosalie has a job as a stay at home writer and is only twenty-four years old and lives with her parents and some animals. She doesn't know that having this special Necklace means that there is a supernatural war between two Worlds. Can she win this fight or will she die trying to save humankind from extinction?
Blood
Blood binds. Blood betrays. Blood remembers. She's living an ordinary life - lectures, late shifts, and trying to keep her head above water - until the night everything changes. A stranger in the glass. Whispers she can't explain. Dreams dripping in crimson. Drawn into a shadowed world where nothing is as it seems, she's pulled from routine into a maze of haunted whispers, forbidden attraction, and ancient rituals she doesn't understand. Each step uncovers more of a legacy she never knew she carried - a bloodline tied to power, darkness, and a dangerous bargain she never agreed to. Now, as her hunger grows and her heart tangles with the very creature who may destroy her, she'll face the ultimate question: fight the darkness that claims her... or surrender to the blood calling her home. Happy reading.....🥰🥰🥰Complete
Monster
Monsters are real. They've always been here, hiding in plain sight. Sam had no idea... until something ancient and hungry stepped out of the woods and tore his life apart. Now he's not just running from the darkness... he is the darkness. Twisted into a creature he doesn't understand, driven by a brutal hunger he can't control, Sam must choose: protect the ones he loves, or embrace the monster inside. In a new city, Sam is hunted on all sides by those who slay things like him without mercy. Sam hides among them, searching for answers while he assists them with trying to track something that is hiding right under their noses. But as he gets closer to their secrets, and their daughter, his own secrets risk coming out. His curse attracts even greater threats that rest beneath the city, in a dark, hidden place, that might destroy them all. When he was still human, he thought monsters were myths... legends. But now he has to study those old legends to try and figure out what exactly is hiding behind his eyes.

The Hybrid
I jumped to my feet and punched him in the side. There was hardly an effect. "You're weak" he spat, walking a step closer towards me. I growled as I had had it with this blood sucking devil! My blue eyes fumed in anger as my wolf was released. I am a white wolf. Liam's eyes bulged as he saw my true form. He then smiled ready to fight. I lunged for the bastard, knocking him to the ground. His other minions rushed towards me all attaching me at once. I attempted to fight against them. They kept coming on me and it was becoming too much for me to handle. My fur had gone from a snowy white, to a bloody reddish color. So much blood. I laid down. Maybe just a minute of rest. I saw Liam walk up to me. He looked down at me and smiled. "What's wrong little wolf? No more energy?" He smirked. Then Liam was suddenly thrown to the damp ground by something, a jet black wolf with glowing red eyes. He was beautiful with his gleaming coat and strong legs. The black wolf left Liam on the ground and fiercely killed all of Liam's minions easily. He wasn't finished with his prowl, he turned back to face Liam but realized that the pureblooded vampire had already run off. Then I hear a deep growl. "Mate", and my heart stops. ------------ Alexandra's pack is mercilessly destroyed by werewolves most hated species: vampires. The species has hated each other since the beginning of time.

A Rogue's Redemption
"You threw me to the rogues, but you never expected me to lead them. You thought they'd eat me, but instead they bow before me." She backs up, seeming to compose herself a little, and I'm still speechless. "Stupid Alpha, did you really think I'd wither away? Did you honestly expect me to just disappear like the rest of your problems?" She starts laughing darkly, making everyone else but Julian step back in fear. She closes her eyes, dropping her hands to her sides. "Stupid Alpha. I'm stronger than you ever were, and even more terrifying." Her eyes open, I gasp in shock at her now glowing red orbs...crimson with a frightening glow.
