Seth is the consummate alcoholic, a slave to his vice, and his family's constant plea for him to kick the habit has fallen on deaf ears.  He escapes to his inherited Victorian in the dead town of Blackwood, Mississippi on a three day hiatus to escape the madness and indulge to his heart's content.  Not long after he has settled in, a decrepit church deacon accompanied by a sickly red-eyed Great Dane appear at Seth's doorstep in the midst of a violent thunderstorm seeking shelter.  He unwittingly allows the duo refuge and is imprisoned.  Enshrouded in a cold blanket of darkness, his guests reveal their true nature; a malevolent demon and a rampaging hellhound.  Somewhere inside the Victorian rests the key to Seth's freedom and he must find it within three days if he is to see his family again.  Seth's constant drunkenness laced with the maniacal games played by the demon and his hellhound increase the likelihood that he never will.  His three day hiatus has become a countdown in a tormenting battle for his life...and his soul.All Rights Reserved

He died. He came back. But some debts can't be paid in the grave. Shane is back in Lincoln, trying to piece together a normal life after surviving a war with angels. But his resurrection didn't just mend his wounds-it tore a hole in the veil. Now, his very presence is a beacon for things that lurk in the shadows, and his quiet city is on the brink of a new, terrifying era. A new demonic force, more intelligent and personal than any he's faced, begins to dismantle his life from the inside out. An ancient, forgotten god awakens with a claim on the city's Roman stones. A vengeful vampire, a ghost of a past hunt, begins to rally forces across the ocean, her sights set firmly on Lincoln. And through it all, the cryptic Trickster continues to pull the strings, teaching lessons written in blood. With his closest ally, Fiona, facing a crisis of her own, and new, powerful beings emerging from the city's long-buried history, Shane must confront a horrifying truth: to protect the people he loves, he may have to pay a price far greater than his own life.

Liam doesn't raise his voice. He doesn't need to. When he's angry, the room gets smaller. The oxygen vanishes. Your own heartbeat betrays you. And when he left the room, slamming the heavy door behind him, I stood there for hours, unmoving. Not because I didn't want to move-but because I didn't know if I was allowed to. That night, he didn't sleep beside me. And I unraveled. I went through three different outfits. I brushed my hair seventy times. I practiced walking with books on my head like Rosa used to force me to. I whispered apologies into the dark, unsure if he could hear me. But he must have. Because in the morning, he was in the kitchen, making coffee like nothing happened. And when I wrapped my arms around him and buried my face in his back, he sighed and said, "There's my good girl."

Monday, August 1 Dear Isaac, if you're reading this, that means you've turned eighteen. Congratulations, I'm so proud of you. I hope you had a great day! But unfortunately, that also means I'm not there to celebrate with you, I'm so sorry about that. I never thought I'd have to write this journal, but here I am. You're probably very confused, and I don't blame you, but your father wouldn't be able to properly explain to you everything about yourself, And if I don't make it, which I fear I don't, and I probably didn't or you wouldn't be reading this, there's got to be some way for you to find out, So, let's begin ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- His friend forces him on a hunting trip, where instead of a monster he finds quite the opposite... or so he thinks.

Demon |Book 1 (Editing in progress) by EvelineFaye

For the Monarchy of Sweden, Coronation Day is approaching faster than their prince had hoped. Being the only heir to the throne, Prince Seth feels immense pressure to fit the mold of the crown. With his mother ruling with an iron fist, he hopes to measure up somewhat to her expectations. On a day that is meant to be celebrated by the Prince, his birthday, he is met with dreadful nightmares that leave him feeling unnerved. Nightmares of a tall man who resembles himself with unsettling green eyes. Nightmares of himself wielding an unfathomably powerful magic, something that would put the strongest warlocks outside of the kingdom to shame. Nightmares of him standing over thousands of his subjects' bodies, without a hint of remorse in his black, dead eyes. The fear of becoming mad overtook him as these nightmares became visions, and these visions became hallucinations. As he descends deeper into insanity, he turns to the Queen, his mother for help, which only drives him further into aberration. Finding himself deep in the woods where no human is permitted to be, he begs God to stop punishing him, apologizing for whatever Sins he has committed against him. Instead, he finds himself face-to-face with a warlock with eyes similar to the man's from his nightmares. 10/2/24: Editing in progress

"Before Dawn" by WriteOne71

Sixteen-year-old Dawn Morningside isn't quite ready to hunt just yet according to her overprotective father. Dawn aims to prove him wrong and make her long-dead mother proud in the process. Unbeknownst to her father, Dawn gears up with her two Sig Sauer .45s and her blessed twin short-swords. A maniacal half-human half-imp was her father's next target which she decides to take on in secret. She had expected it to be easy work for her but she was super-wrong! To her embarrassment, her father finds her out and manages to rescue her from the imp-man's pummeling. She gets the proverbial butt-chewing and thinks her failure is over until the imp-man kidnaps her boyfriend and uses him as bait to lure her in--but why? Dawn learns that the imp-man serves a powerful demon who wants to take her soul, and that her father is a direct link to it all. Her father is very elusive about his involvement, and Dawn is unsure if she can rescue her boyfriend let alone save herself. To make matters worse, a relentless faction of ghouls known as The Brood are in cahoots with the imp-man and demon. As prideful as ever, Dawn refuses to ask her father for help because she can no longer trust him. Instead, she summons a pesky hellhound and strikes a dangerous deal with the malevolent beast in which she could end up as dog-chow if she's unable to uphold her end of the bargain. As Dawn takes matters into her own hands, she eventually unveils her father's alignment with the imp-man and the demon. She's in for a shock when she discovers the mystery behind her father's pact with them that had ultimately led to her mother's death--and how it all happened before Dawn.

Blood. Brotherhood. Betrayal. And the beast within. By day, they're WWE's most dominant force. By night, they're something far more dangerous. Roman Reigns didn't ask to be the Alpha of an ancient Samoan werewolf bloodline-he was born to it. With the power of the moon in his veins and the weight of generations on his shoulders, he leads his pack with unshakable control... until a rogue Alpha marks him with a curse that threatens to destroy everything. Now, the unbreakable bond between The Shield is fracturing. Dean Ambrose-the wild, untamed Beta whose rage is as fierce as his loyalty-teeters on the edge of rebellion. Seth Rollins-the brilliant strategist with ambition burning beneath his skin-finds himself torn between brotherhood and the call of power. And Roman? His control is slipping. His humanity is fading. And the world is starting to notice. As the curse spreads, ringside cameras catch glimpses of glowing eyes and impossible strength. Conspiracies explode online. Hunters close in. And in the chaos, three women step into the storm: A quiet librarian who sees the man beneath Dean's fury. A psychologist who dares to understand Seth's secrets. A historian who uncovers the truth about Roman's bloodline-and the prophecy that could save or doom them all. When love becomes their last defense and the full moon rises
