This is the first 10 chapters of Dark Heirloom. The full novel is available on Amazon and Smashwords.
“You’re a vampire” is so not what Ema Marx wants to hear when she wakes from a two-day coma in a cryptic yet exquisite castle in northern Finland. Unfortunately, it explains a lot. Like why she’s able to see in the dark and walk through solid objects. What she doesn’t understand is why the other vampires expect her to have all the answers. It’s their fault she turned into one of them…right?
Jalmari’s hatred for his old-man intensifies when he’s ordered to bring that troublesome girl to their castle. He has a clan to run, there’s no time for babysitting newborn vampires no matter how they were converted to their culture. But when a two-thousand-year-old premonition threatens to take the crown and his life, Jalmari sees no other choice than to take out the catalyst. Ema Marx. Fortunately for Ema, she could also be the clan’s only savior.
The race to figure out her vampiric origins is on. And maybe she’ll get the hang of the blood-drinking gig along the way…

Heir
Jake Thompson never wanted to return to Prosperidad, Caraga, much less to the decaying ancestral lodge that haunted his childhood. But his estranged father's cryptic will demands his presence, forcing him back to the isolated jungle estate where unsettling family secrets lie buried deeper than the lush foliage. He soon discovers his inheritance is far more than just a crumbling house; it's a terrifying, ancient debt. As a brutal, ritualistic killer known only as the "Harvest Man" emerges from the shadows, systematically claiming victims with gruesome, agrarian precision, Jake finds himself and his childhood friend, Chloe, trapped within the lodge's collapsing walls. This isn't just a deranged killer; it's a primal entity, an enforcer of a forgotten, blood-soaked pact forged centuries ago by his own ancestors with the malevolent spirit of the land. Jake must decipher his family's dark legacy - the chilling lore of the diwata ng gubat, the purpose of grotesque wooden dolls, and the true meaning of a "blood debt" - before he becomes the final payment in a horrifying, ancestral reckoning. From the terrifying ordeal of being buried alive to a desperate battle within a hidden crypt beneath the lodge, Jake confronts the very roots of a curse he never asked for. But even if he survives the Harvest Man, can he truly escape his family's past? In "Heir," the lines between predator and prey blur, and Jake discovers that vanquishing the monster may only be the beginning of his true, horrifying inheritance: a life bound to the land, its ancient hungers, and a cyclical horror from which there may be no escape. The ultimate slasher is not just a killer, but a legacy, demanding its due from the last heir.Concluida
Bound To The Demon Prince Of Erendale | 18+
⚠️WARNING: MATURE AUDIENCE ONLY.🔞 "You're mine, Witch." His voice hardened. "Your life that I saved? The one that would've been WASTED if I hadn't acted? Belongs to ME. And you will do only as I please, exactly as I say, until-" "Over my dead body!" I hissed, suddenly filled with anger. "That can be arranged," Hans said easily. Then with a smile that was anything but pleasant: "Or you can steal for me instead. Kill for me, if I tell you to. Either way, you stay where I can see you. Night and day." "I'm no puppet." I held his silver gaze with a glare. "And I'm definitely no murderer." "No, but you're a thief. One that's now forever indebted to me." ~•|•~ She steals power. This time, she stole the wrong one. ~•|•~ The Black Market of Erendale runs on the trade of magic ripped from its owners and sold to the highest bidder. Eclipse knows the game. As a Siphoner, a rare witch who can drain abilities with a touch, she survives by robbing the powerful and selling to the even more powerful... until she accidentally takes the essence of Hans de la Mort, the demon of Erendale himself. Crossing him should mean death. Instead, he offers her a deal: she'll return his power when the time is right, and until then, she and her siphoning abilities belong to him. She was his prisoner. His prey. And dangerously, the one who made his demon want to play. Every job she's forced to do pulls them closer to danger-and closer to each other. But when Eclipse uncovers a plot to overthrow him, she's faced with an impossible choice: return his power and lose the only leverage keeping her alive... or keep it, and risk losing everything. Including him.

Only when she sees that the dying guard is Jascha, she begins a battle with her heart that will see her struggle to turn her back on Jascha and her family again, and maintain her sense of duty.

Forged by the Abyssal King
Jaka spent his first life drifting without direction-lazy, unmotivated, and indifferent to the future. When he failed the university entrance exam, the fragile foundation of his life crumbled. Friends vanished, family turned their backs, and even the girl he thought he would build a future with spat on his name. Mocked, abandoned, and drowning in self-disgust, he lived the next twenty years like a hollow shell. No dreams, no drive, no hope. His days blended into nights, suffocating in regret until his pointless existence finally reached its quiet, pathetic end. But death did not grant escape. He awakens in a world drenched in blood, in a body battered and scarred, surrounded by mountains of corpses whose faces twist in eternal terror. Before him stands a monstrous being-massive, horned, crimson-eyed, and radiating hatred powerful enough to crush a mortal mind. Yet Jaka's heart does not stir. No fear. No shock. Nothing but numb resignation. He has long forgotten what it means to feel alive. This demon is Orba, the Abyssal King, ruler of the darkest plane and executioner of heroes. Instead of killing Jaka, Orba claims him as a tattered scrap of fate-someone not chosen by gods nor loved by destiny. And for that very reason, he becomes Orba's prisoner, slave, and unwanted protégé. As Jaka is forced into brutal training, forged in suffering, and stripped of weakness, a question begins to smolder in the emptiness of his broken spirit: if a man who already lost everything is given a second chance-not to be a hero, but to survive, to sharpen his blade, and to carve meaning from despair-just how terrifying can he become? Thus begins the rebirth of a failure who seeks not glory, but a reason to breathe again. A man not chosen by fate... but shaped by the abyss itself.
🕯️💕My Demon Boyfriend (Season 1 &2)
Some strings can't be cut... even with fangs. Nobody at Shibuya Academy notices Ember Quinn-black eyeliner, shredded tights, hoodie pulled over her face like a curtain. Invisible. Forgettable. Even her parents, swallowed by their corporate lives, barely remember she exists. Until he arrives. Kai Mori - the transfer student with ash-pale skin, eyes like dying embers, and a smile that makes girls line up just to be ignored by him. He's all mystery and midnight, and Ember couldn't care less... until the day she sees him crouched behind the gym, fangs buried in the still-warm throat of a rabbit. She doesn't even have time to gasp before her back is against a tree, his cold hand around her throat. > "Scream," he says softly, "and I'll make sure it's your last." But just as she's about to cry out, something impossible happens- A crimson thread appears between them, glowing against the foggy air, trailing from her wrist to his. Kai stares at it in shock. The red string of fate. Ancient Japanese folklore says it ties destined lovers together, unbreakable and eternal. For a vampire, it's rarer than moonlight. And deadly. Now, she's bound to him-an emo girl who hates attention, and a blood-drinker who swears he doesn't believe in love. But fate doesn't care what they believe. It only cares that they burn together... or destroy each other.Concluida
