ROGUE REBORN - ONC 2023 by StephRose1201

**OPEN NOVELLA CONTEST SHORTLIST** Even if she is killed, she is never dead. ***** She'd spent many, many years in the same body, getting used to her quirks, her mannerisms, learning how to survive through the ages. Yet Josephine wakes up one night and realizes she's been asleep for a century: it's now 2023, and her last memory was being on a boat with friends back in 1923. As an immortal woman--a Reborn--she can never truly die, but if mortally wounded or killed, her body disintegrates, and her essence roams for one hundred years before it creates a new body to inhabit. If she slept for so long, it can only mean one thing: someone murdered her back on that boat, and now she needs to find out who and why. *** ONC entry based on prompt #2: "One night you woke from the dead. For you, you were gone mere seconds, for the world you were gone almost a century. How will you navigate this new world?"

The Way We Burn by daisydanielle33

The sparks are instant. A night, a look and a dozen flirty words. I think I've met my match... Until I learn she's my boss's daughter. This can't happen. I can't let it. But every time I look into Gigi's ice-blue eyes, my resolve weakens. Maybe just once... one night, one taste and I'll get her out of my system... But once is never enough and Gigi lights a fire I cannot put out no matter how reckless it may be. This could bring everything down in flames. Including us. **This story includes a daughter dealing with a parent fighting cancer. Sickness is mentioned often**

Divine Love / Jeff the killer x Reader (WARNING) by brookevangelinee

Y/N a 22 year old female, works at a club as a bartender, is lonely and doesn't have many friends other than her childhood friend Jack, who has a small crush on her. She lives alone in a apartment building, when suddenly a strange murderer appears in town killing tons of innocent people. Y/N doesn't seem so scared until a strange man with a cut smile and no eyelids appears in her room while she is sleeping. Will he kill her? Will they fall in love? Can she trust him and he trust her? Also I would like to say this real quick, but this is sort of like a enemies to lovers type of fanfic but it's a more quick rolling book in the beginning. But I always like to write these little notes to help readers understand what is going on in the book. So please enjoy and please don't hate on my terrible writing skills. X^X

The Price of Life - A Novella by Sage-Botkin

SOOO we obviously didn't make the deadline lol. This story is unfinished and will remain that way. This is the best example of a rushed concept with no actual plot lol. I wrote blind and hated most of what I had written. I've redesigned this concept and I'm rewriting it with a stronger concept and a laid-out plot. I will release the rewrite when it's done. I'm keeping this published so I can look back at my growth and so others can also see the transformation if they are interested. [ROUND THREE QUALIFIER] Simone's family is her life until she is called as one of the hundred winners given a chance at a new life. When Simone Moss enters the Healthy Human Dome, she is pushed into a deadly game that challenges her in every way possible. While this dark game is filled with blood, it also forces her to face her inner demons and grow in unexpected ways. "Every life you take raises the price of your own. Are you worth more than any of them?" This is my entry to the 2021 Open Novella Contest. Thank you for reading, commenting, and voting. This is my first story outside of fantasy as well as my first 3rd person story. Good or bad, I'd love to hear what you think, it'll help me grow as a writer.

The Plus One by ceriswrite

Cecil's face faded out of River's vision while his hands had strangled the life from her throat ten years ago. The only thing that saved her was his own self-control. Since then, Cecil went away and focused on rehabilitating the sadistic urges inside of him. Ten years later he returns home for his cousin's wedding, and he has checked the Plus One box on the RSVP. River has allowed him back into her life, understanding the risks, because of the strength of their history. Fighting the cravings between rehabilitated redemption and exhilarating adventure of execution, can Cecil allow her to live again? TW: Sn*ff, sm*t, viol*nce, ab*se. /// First publication!! For some reason, Wattpad will not allow me to format paragraphs with an indent. I know that is annoying, but please try to ignore it. I am new to putting my work out there lol. This is also supposed to follow a similar format to early 2010's wattpad fanfics, because it started as a writing exercise.

In the Arms of Danger by Btsfan_4eva

"Who are you?" I asked, still left in the shock and scared state that came over me when gunshots were heard. I look up to his face which was hidden behind a dark shadow and bit my lips as silence fell between us. "Who I am is none of your business," he said in a cold, husky voice that somehow caused me to shiver. A frown made it's way onto my face as I looked at the mysterious man who refused to tell me who he is. He stood tall in front of me as we fell into silence again but only for a few seconds before he began to slowly move towards me. His face slowly being exposed to the light, giving me a glimpse of his icy grey eyes. "let's go" he spoke again before turning around. I hesitated a bit before turning around and for some reason followed behind him. ─── ･｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ─── Ariana is a 26-year-old young lady, employed at a famous bar in New York City.
