Wichita, 1920s - Bootleggers, speakeasies, vampires - oh my!

Jake Mathisen survived the Great War only to return home to find there's little work for a pilot and, worse, the vampires of Europe have been emigrating to the States. Working for bootlegger Toliver Cain means good money, access to a sterling airplane, and enough free hooch that he doesn't have to think too much about the past. Until Cain dispatches him to drive Miss Vera Avery to a vampire house.

The one job that Jake regrets, and the one that Cain uses to keep him close, involved the death of Vera Avery's father. And while Vera plays the wide-eyed ingenue, there's something hard inside of her. Could the blonde with the bright smile be as lethal as the vampires Jake's taking her to face and, if so, what's going to happen when she finds out what Jake's done?

Mostly Ghostly | Isaac Lahey ¹✓ by stilestastic

"Sorry, Lahey, but I'm more of a cat person." Vera Pérez is no stranger to the supernatural. Growing up alongside the Hale family has kept her fairly well-informed about the creatures that lurk in the darkness. However, she didn't become one of those nighttime horrors until the end of her sophomore year- Derek had no choice but to turn her so she wouldn't die from her wounds after a kanima attack. The thing is, she didn't gain his fangs and claws. They say that the bite turns you into the shape of your character. Vera still isn't sure what to make of becoming some sort of glorified ghost. But with a pack of Alphas knocking on Derek's door and people disappearing left and right only to show up dead days later, she barely has time to think about anything else. It wouldn't be so terrible if it weren't for four specific facts: 1. The Alpha leader killed her father and may or may not be coming to finish her off. 2. Nobody seems to be safe from the mass murders in the town. 3. She has to spend more time than usual with Isaac Lahey, with whom she shares a mutual disliking. 4. Isaac pushes her buttons, but soon she starts to realize that she likes it. ©𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤 2019 𝐭𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐨𝐥𝐟 | 𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝟑 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐚𝐜 𝐥𝐚𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐱 𝐨𝐜 𝐚𝐧 𝐔𝐍𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐍 𝐎𝐍𝐄𝐒 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤 WINNER OF 2024 ARMAGEDDON FANFIC AWARDS FOR "BEST ISAAC LAHEY FANFIC"
Blind Instincts by _Serza

*COMPLETED* My head bowed in a heavy mannor, not in respect, but in trepidation. I discern his unwavering gaze over my ill silhouette. "Look at me." I opened my eyes, though it made no difference. Black is still black, all I am left with are my four senses. He will kill me if I don't look. He will kill me if I do. He will look into my sightless eyes and see my futile existence isn't worth living. He will kill me, and he will be doing the pack a justice by it. He growls a low, throaty snarl to warn me about disobeying an alpha. There will be consequences, we both know that. His lingering growls let me know he is not going to allow me to contravene his word. I steadily inch my head upwards, visibly shaking everywhere else. Maybe he won't notice my depthless eyes from across the gazebo. My life depends on it. "You're blind." ~ Monet was born into a particularly prestigious area of her wolf pack, to parents of extremely high standards. Her legacy is to become the packs next healer, but when she was born completely devoid of melanin, all her mated parents saw was a disappointment. Being born an albino wolf pup meant a lot for Monet, but it mostly meant her condition had taken her eyesight along with it. What happens when Monet meets the Alpha of a neighboring pack? Will he accept her for what she is? ~CONTENT WARNING~ This book contains depictions of physical abuse, foul language, and upsetting scenary.

Lusting After Lucifer (18+) ☑ by Zondra_Allison
8 parts Complete Mature
This is an erotic romance. Recommended 18+! Completed. Excerpt: His mouth was back on mine in an instant, the door behind us rattling loudly as he thrust against me. "Does the geriatric kiss you like this?" He mumbled against me as his teeth nipped at my already swollen lips. I pulled back once more, my heighted state of emotions, my anger taking over. "What if I said I don't want you?" A devilish grin took over as one of his hands slid along my thigh, under my skirt, his fingers tracing over the soft, damp material of my underwear. His mouth moved down to my neck, nipping at the juncture between my shoulder and neck. "I would call you a fucking liar." I tried to bite back the moan as his teeth skimmed my neck, before sinking in hard, his fingers pushing under the edge of my panties. He hesitated for a moment, waiting for me to stop him. I didn't want him to stop. One finger slid over my folds before pushing into my entrance, sinking in deep. He groaned in pleasure, his erection twitching against my core as his finger began to move. "I can feel just how much you want me." **** Lucian Vanderbrooke has been labeled many things in his lifetime. Bad boy, asshole, troublemaker, pornstar, the list goes on. He is nicknamed Lucifer for a reason. He gets who he wants, when he wants. Everything changes when he sets his sights on his twin sisters' best friend, his childhood friend who he has always had a love/hate relationship with. Abigail Davidson is a determined redheaded spitfire who doesn't take attitude from anyone. She has secretly been in love with her best friend's brother for her entire life, even though every sensible thought she has is telling her to hate the arrogant asshole. It is a love that she can't act on. A love that must remain hidden. That pact they made when they were 16, doesn't mean anything... right? Standalone spin off from the Distorted Windows Trilogy. Can be read on its own but it is recommended to read the others first.
"Before Dawn" by WriteOne71
34 parts Complete
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.

Alpha Featherstone (Book 1- Completed. Offline Editing) by JustAnotherRogue
29 parts Complete Mature
When Alpha Featherstone passes away, his missing daughter shows up to claim her rightful place. Having been gone for eight years, the once sweet and obedient Victoria Featherstone is now a pain in the Elder Council's side. No Female had ever ruled a pack alone and her resolve to be the Alpha has them pulling their hair out in bundles. She is crude, outspoken(whenever she does actually speak), hard headed and at an equal footing with them, even refusing to adhere to the Werewolf King. With a now questionable past about the last eight years while she had been missing, the fact that she wishes to claim her place as Alpha is very distressing to those around her, throwing her old pack into chaos. Vladimir Ivanov, King of the werewolf race, finds her to be perfect for his equally hardheaded son, Illarion Ivanov. Illarion had lost his mate to illness and showed no interest in replacing her, until he meets the spitfire named Victoria Featherstone, feeling a potential second chance mating bond with her. Confused, at first he denies any attraction towards her, but his animistic instincts draws him to her in the end. Archelaus Hatzis, a well known rogue with the reputation as great as that of the Royal family's, catches sight of his mate once, never to see her again as she gets abducted right before his eyes. Six years, four months and twenty days later he stumbles upon a picture of his mate that he had only seen once in his life before. Without thinking twice he packs up his small rogue pack and moves towards where she is. Will either male be able to break through her outer shell to find a loving mate, or will Victoria deter them and continue to rule by herself? And what will they do when finally her past comes to light?

Amelia's been on the streets since she can remember. She was abandoned by her mother on the doorstep of an orphanage run by nuns and was later thrown out of there too due to her unruly and 'unladylike' behaviour. She's been surviving on the streets for many years, stealing for food, rummaging in bins for clothes, scraps of metal or wood, which she uses as makeshift appliances, decorations and weapons. She's had a tough life, but it's made her into the strong, independent and fiery woman she is today. Ezra Beaumont, marquess of Winchester and future Duke, although thanks to his arrogance and narcissistic tendencies, he was sent to work down in the village with the local breadmaker in an attempt to humble him and make him a better person and better ruler by his parents the current Duke and Duchess of Winchester. Amelia's been trying to find her mother for as long as she can remember but all she has is a name. What neither Amelia nor Ezra knew, was that that name would connect them in a way neither would've ever imagined. She finds someone so broken under that cold exterior that she can't help but want to help him. They get thrown into a world of witches, wizards and magic and evil. They set off on a journey to become some of the most powerful witch and wizard to ever live, in order to defeat a great evil. Along the way, they recruit five other individuals each experienced in a different area of magic. Who will love and who will hate? Who will even live to tell the tale? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is my first draft, I've edited it along the way but the more I revisit and edit the better it wil get.
