Wattys winner

Inheriting a bride and losing his father might not have been the best reasons for moving across the country, but when Eiren arrives at his betrothed's family castle, the prospect of being married becomes far less concerning than simply not going insane... or getting himself killed.
 
•    •    •

Called to the home of his betrothed at the Kelfordshire Estate, Eiren Adair is suddenly pulled from a life of comfort far, far away from his father and any marriage obligations. Now in want for comfort and luxury, he finds himself trapped in wait for his impending marriage to the Lord Van Wyk's daughter in a season of perpetual rain and snow. Surrounded by a hostile family and haunted by the terrifying statues scattered around the estate - modeled after the dead wives of the Lord Van Wyk by the famed sculptor Severin Quilby - Eiren must come to terms with his own desire to live and escape, before he becomes another tragedy of Kelfordshire Castle.

Academy for the Strange by LaurenDMSmith

When Fiona ends up at St. Lawrence Academy according to her mom's wishes, she isn't expecting what she finds. She can handle the school's private plane, that the academy is located on its own private island and she can even take the fact that she's the only transfer student they've had in years. What she can't handle is the fact she's the only human in school. Because St. Lawrence Academy isn't just for learning math, English, and art. No, it's a school for the supernatural to learn how to fit in among humans. Forced to hide what she is and pretend to be a dryad, something she'd never even heard of before, Fiona has to do her best to fit in or lose the only place she has to go.

The Strange Case of the Jackson Building by dizzy_panda

If you get in, you can't get out. If you call it home, you already belong to it. If you are here, you're already gone. One thing is certain: these doors were not designed to keep you out. She has seen and dealt with her own brand of personal madness all her life. She's not sure if she has become the disease or if there is someone, something, far sicker than she could ever be messing with her already sore mind. Are her symptoms consuming her life or are they turning her into the perfect survivor? Is this real? Or is it all happening inside her head? Does it really matter anyway? **Awesome cover created by the extremelly talented x_Luminous_x, for which I am deeply grateful. I could never make something so beautiful. I hope the story does it justice**

Mars Needs Women by wdhenning

Being a 'difficult woman', Oklahoma farm-gal Mavis wasn't having much luck with the local dating pool. Her Pa signed her up to emigrate to newly terraformed Mars, because 'Mars needs women'. Maybe there she could find a good man to marry. But Mavis had no intention of getting hitched, despite what the legal contract said. Walt, the son of successful Mars merchants, had no intention of going through with a forced arranged marriage. Finding a kindred spirit in Mavis, they chose their own path. A sci-fi sorta-romance story written for the 2024 Open Novella Contest based on prompt #88: "Your father is forcing you to marry someone you never met. The night before your wedding, you tie your sheets together and make your escape through the window. Half way down you make eye contact with someone doing the exact same thing a few windows over." **** Open Novella Contest Short List and Honorable Mention **** **** Open Novella Contest Round Two Ambassador Pick ****

Serial by BLGielen

Emmy's life is going just as she'd planned: She's living in her own apartment, dancing every day and is just leaps away from being named her company's next Prima ballerina. And she's only 17. But all of Emmy's plans come to a screeching halt when the FBI shows up at her door to let her know that she's being stalked by a serial killer. Suddenly, the safe, insulated world she created for herself is riddled with violence, fear...and a growing pile of dead bodies. At first Emmy wants nothing more than to forget her chilling new reality - but her admirer isn't finished with her yet, and before she knows it, Emmy's stuck in a nightmare she can't dance her way out of. Content and/or trigger warning: This story contains detailed scenes of murder, rape, torture, sex and stalking, which may be triggering for some readers. [[word count: 80,000-90,000 words]]
