Charlemagne2020

Four years after his brother's icy death, Ernest Frankenstein finds himself the lone survivor of his family and a refugee after revolutionaries force him to flee Geneva. Left with only Victor's cursed legacy, an unexpected run-in with Joseph Curwen, one of Victor's university friends, seems a Godsend to Ernest-especially when the necromancer claims he too has the ability to raise the dead with his own methods of salt and sorcery. Will Ernest's want for companionship trump his better judgement of meddling with Lovecraftian forces beyond man's understanding? And does Curwen have ulterior motives for wanting to bring Victor back?All Rights Reserved

Dracula's Lost Love by ALunarDream

We all know the story of how Dracula became a "monster," right? Or at least we think we know the story behind how he came to be the villain that Van Helsing must vanquish. What if there is more to the story that we don't know? What if there is something that drove Dracula to do the things he does? Also, what if Dracula isn't truly a monster, but just a misunderstood man, who is lonely and looking for the one he lost so long ago? In this story we are going to be joining Van Helsing, Carl, Lilith and Anna on a new adventure that not only where they are trying to figure out how to stop Dracula, before he manages to kill the last of the Valerious family, preventing them from entering St. Peter's gates; but also find the answers to so many questions that keep running circles in their head. Though one thing they can't help but to wonder, is why is Dracula so hellbent on getting Lilith away from them, and turning her against them. Find out in Dracula's Lost Love and join our heroes on their journey as they themselves try to find the answers they seek.

A Storm of Paper Starlings by inka_york

What if the ordinary family you crave finds you? Only they're not ordinary, neither are you, and neither are the vampire neighbours raising your twin sister. An accident is all it takes to turn my mundane life in a London children's home upside down. Power and magic lurk at the priory, my new home in the Oxfordshire countryside, and I learn fast that nothing is ordinary around here. Not my newfound family-the Penhaligons. Not my long-lost twin sister. And not the hostile new neighbours-a coven of vampires, vaewolves and demons. As I grapple with family secrets, four powerful new brothers, and latent abilities of my own, my sister and the man who raised her find themselves in mortal danger-a danger that draws me and my family into a battle to save them. Finally embracing the meaning of family, two questions burn at the back of my mind. If vampires and demons exist, what are the Penhaligons? And what am I? ~~~ This story contains sibling banter, precious friendships, bitey neighbours, and terrible goats. It's already published at all major online retailers, along with the rest of the series. But if you want to read it on my subscription, the whole series is in the Bloodborn Archive tier (five bucks).

Friends to Lovers by home-of-the-writer

The day Eric changed faction to Dauntless, your whole world crashed. He left you, all alone, with no one but Him.

My Monster Mate (Book I) by Mbalii

Book One in the My Mate Series - "Elijah," Alexander calls in this terrifying voice. I know it's dangerous but I ignore him, I keep my eyes shut and continue to rock myself back and forth, my hands blocking my ears. I didn't want to look at him, I didn't want to see those black orbs. "Look at me." He demands, his voice depicting his rage. "No," I whisper. "Look at me or I swear, I will do it!" He shouts. I'm not completely sure what 'it' is but I'm sure it has to do with death. Although the poor kid probably wants exactly that. I want that for him right now. It must be a lot less painful than what he's probably going through. Slowly, I reluctantly remove my hands from my ears and pick up my head from my knees, I open my eyes gazing up at him. As soon as I do - I wish I hadn't. Because as soon as I do Alexander snaps his neck. I gasp, tears sliding down my cheeks even faster than they were before. My mate is a monster. "I told you." He laughs, "I am a monster. And guess what?" He pauses, as if daring me to say something, "I don't intend on changing for anyone and especially not you." - Copyright © Mbalii *NOT man x man. *Completed.
