A teen is stunned to discover he's half-vampire. Will being asexual-aromantic thwart bloodlust, or are there other emotions strong enough to trigger murder?

*******

Natsu anxiously follows his mentally-ill mother's rules, forcing himself to be an emotionless loner and suppressing his peculiar body constitution. But when he finds camaraderie with an abused yet purehearted boy, he rebels and experiences emotions he didn't know existed.

Then tragedies disrupt Natsu's improving life and tear him away from the people he cares about. A mysterious "family friend" drags him halfway across the world to reveal an unsettling secret: Natsu is half-vampire, those expected to murder a human they fall for. Can he brave this new life when his friend has left a dangerous, unconventional mark on his heart?

A Little Bit Of Joy | ✔ by wigglysubu

[Featured by wattpad romance, teen fiction, young adult and psychologicalnovel] Joy Jones was a seventeen-year-old kind and optimistic girl working in her grandpa's flower shop, but she had a secret. She was suffering from acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and wanted nothing, but to die peacefully. That was until Logan Kellerman, a young man with suicidal tendencies came storming into her life and stole roses from her grandpa's flower shop. Instead of running away with what he came for, he found himself falling deeper and deeper into her as she made his heart skip in delight, for she was, in her own words, a little bit of Joy. * * * from some of my readers of this book, thanks❤- ❝I LOVE YOUR STORY OKAY.

Fate Interrupted by LNRoberts1

🥇 Wattpad Amby Award Winner - Top Pick in Romance 2023 🥇 After eleven years of no contact, fate thrusts ex-lovers Ren and Gio back together. Their chemistry is immediate, but she thinks she's broken beyond repair, and he thinks he's a train wreck unfit for relationships. Though these high school sweethearts still harbor deep feelings for each other, in order to fully heal their relationship and themselves, they must first reveal their deepest secrets. ♥︎ DualPOV. Ren: I have to admit it... I never got over Giovanni. I thought I had moved on, even married another man. But just when I had my life all neatly put together, it all broke apart. Now I'm nearly thirty, freshly single, and living back home with my mom in California, where the hot and heavy teenage memories of Gio still taunt me. Then, as if by fate, after eleven years of no contact, he walks back into my life, his gaze licking up my body like fire, and Zap! All it takes is one look to feel the intense connection surging between us again... and I know he feels it, too. Damn, Gio was hot at seventeen, but now he's the souped-up, modified version. What will it take to get him back? And if I do, would he accept me and the way in which I'm broken? Gio: Fuck, I'd give anything to get back together with Ren, but every time my heart leaps forward, I immediately take two steps back. She knows me well enough to sense I'm keeping something hidden behind my enigmatic eyes, but she wouldn't want the man I am now. I'm so afraid that the way I am could be our final deal breaker.

Ꮖɦɛ ɢʀɨʍʍ ʀɛʋօʟʊᏆɨօռ by EmeryHowl11

This is no ordinary love story. Two vampire princes battle their parents to gain the right to love each other- their mates. One comes from a long line of Draculas and will in fact be the next Dracula on the throne which means that he will be ruler over all vampire kind. Another comes from a line of royal French blood mixed with a family secret of long ago and quite a few secrets threaten to change everything. Paris Grimm, a brother missing his other half, meets his mate one night in a music room in Transylvania and finds that his love is forbidden, but he can't get Richardo Dracula out of his head, the dark prince who doesn't respect the laws made years ago for order. In order to be with the one he loves, he has to challenge everything and win or else he'll be torn apart from the love of his life. After all, this kind of love only comes once every few thousand years. Who wouldn't fight for it even if everyone thought it was wrong to not marry who your parents arranged for and definitely sinful to marry a male or bite another pureblood. Not only does Paris have this on his mind, but his twin enters his life again, having been separated at birth from each other. Their parents did dark things in the past, selling off one of the twins and raising the remaining one as the rightful heir to the throne and an only child. ~This is another story by EmeryHowl11~ *This is a remake of the original Screams of Insanity series*

Heart of Stone (Parts I & II) by Joflower

[COMPLETE] Some bonds can't be broken, even in death. -- He couldn't endure another heartbreak. "Accepting her would be a mistake," he said. "She's a human. I can't afford to have her blood on my hands." Gwen looked away, and he knew she saw the image that flashed in his mind. The slaughter. Bodies everywhere. The putrid stench of decay and metallic blood seeping through his fingers and staining the earth under his feet. The small, lifeless body in his hands whose death he couldn't prevent. And whose death he could never forget. "It won't be like that with her," she murmured to the floor. "I won't take that chance." Heavy with sorrow, her brown eyes looked up into his. "Not everyone is given a second chance. Take it." -- Soulmates only come along once in a lifetime. Or so everyone thought. She was his second chance. But her heart loved another. Fate would bring them together, and Fate would tear them apart. -- **A slow-burning, sensual love story with a splash of humor, a dash of action, and a lot of heart.** Rated PG-13 for adult content (coarse language, violence, and non-explicit sex) [There is a separate R-rated scenes book for those who want steamier scenes] CONTAINS: alpha lycan x human mates, strong female lead, second chance mates, reincarnation (tabula rasa), love-triangles, vampires, action, drama, humor, relatable characters, high stakes, passionate romances VOID OF: "insta-love," extremely possessive, aggressive, abusive alpha mates, Stockholm Syndrome *OVERALL WINNER of 2017 Flower's Awards*

Lost In Lucidity by Ink_Wielder

"Last night, I had a dream the world ended. Half the population disappeared, and unfathomable eldritch beasts shambled out of an unending darkness." In a world with no sun and bloodthirsty creatures roaming the all consuming dark, the only places still safe are the small compounds that managed to get walls up before all came crashing down. Now, life is simple. Stay inside the walls, and you'll stay alive. It's not relatively easy anymore, though. With no one for company but each other, danger lurking only a few yards away from their homes, and half of their loved ones swept away in a mysterious event known only as 'The Vanishing', the morale of the populous is at an all time low. It's only getting worse for some, as their cities that are supposed to be providing for them are failing to do so. Survivors Wesly and Valentine aren't content with this, however, especially since Val's mother desperately needs life-saving medicine that the city just won't send. With no other options, the two journey outside the wall to study the monsters beyond, selling the information they find to the city in exchange for their support. While dangerous, they manage the task fine until one journey out they stumble across a disturbing, gruesome revelation that reveals not only more about the city, but the end of the world as a whole. As the duo begin to pull on the thread and tangle themselves slowly into its snare, they begin to realize there's a lot more to this apocalypse than they ever could have imagined, and that the horrific beasts they've been studying might be the least of their concerns...
