Spade Donahue has always been unlucky. Nothing seems to go right for the poor boy. He has an "it's complicated" motto. Well that's true. His past didn't treat him well, so he's decided to look out for number one. You can't get hurt if you're looking out for yourself. Right?

Elijah Kinston. He just so happens to stumble upon Spade, at a party. Sure, it's overrated. And so what? Spade is just another bad boy who seems cool and acts like a douche bag. But Elijah takes an interest in Spade when he sees what's below the partying, cold mask. He decides to offer Spade a job working for his family. After all, Spade should be afraid of him.
______________________________________
"Please? I'll make you a counter offer."
"Are you trying to bribe me...?"
"Shut up and listen!" Elijah took a moment to think over his options.
"I'm listening!" Spade threw his hands up in disbelief. "Tells me to shut up, then stops talking... son of a bitch..." He muttered angrily under his breath.
"What if I offer you a job? Work for my family. I'll pay you. You'll have your own room to stay in."

"THE AFTERLIFE CAN BE A REAL BITCH, RIGHT?" "Henri-" I began, but Henri's hand snatched up mine and squeezed tightly enough to break bones. I bit my tongue to hold back a cry. It was a warning. "Maria didn't say anything about a couple of vampires wanting to meet with her," the green-haired warlock spoke after the area had stilled with electrified silence. I looked Henri's way, and that's really when our situation caught up with me. Wait... "Maria..." I murmured in remembrance, then sent Henri a glare. "Why are we here to see Maria Day? If you don't remember, let me remind you that I killed her friend. Hell, her master. She'll kill me when she sees me." Henri had the nerve to laugh softly. "You're already dead, Antoinette." "Thanks to you. There are other ways witches can hurt vampires, aren't there?" My eyes traveled shortly to the warlocks, Daniel and Zachary, and I shook my head. "She'll burn me alive! I'm not going in there." "You're overacting," Henri said with a dramatic eye roll with a worth of a slap across his face. Lucky for him, I kept my hands at my sides. This night was about to get dangerous... This is Book 3 of The Hunters Saga! 1st draft, so there WILL be mistakes! Cover thanks to @AlexandraSinclair1! *Rated PG-13 for thematic peril and angst, rude humor, mild language, occasional innuendo and sensuality, and graphic imagery in some places.

The Liminal Veil | An Urban Fantasy Romance by dodisberry
8 parts Ongoing Mature
Paranormal Romance | Urban Fantasy The world changed the day The Liminal Veil fell. Vampires, werewolves, and creatures of myth stepped from the shadows, their existence no longer whispered in dark corners but broadcast on every screen. Governments scrambled to contain the chaos, new laws were written in blood, and the fragile peace between supernaturals and humans was built on lies, fear, and desperation. For Livy Navarro, a human girl, survival has always meant playing the game-smile when required, obey when commanded, and never let them see the cracks beneath the mask. Raised within The Reliquary, a decadent nightclub hiding a violent underworld, she belongs to the trio of ancient vampires who rule it. They use her as a pawn, a weapon wielded through honeyed words and careful manipulation. And now, they have a new task for her: break Javier Ramirez, a werewolf forced into their brutal fighting pits. But Javier isn't like the others. He doesn't trust her, doesn't fall for the carefully curated charm she's perfected. And the closer she gets, the more she finds herself unraveling-because for the first time in her life, someone sees her. Not as a tool, not as property, but as something real. Yet, in The Reliquary, love is just another illusion, and Livy knows the price of defiance. As deadly games unfold beneath the city, rebellion simmers in the dark. A pack of werewolves-tired of chains, of contracts, of kneeling to creatures who see them as nothing more than entertainment-are ready to strike. And in a world where debts are paid in blood, Livy will have to decide: play her role and survive... or risk everything for a taste of freedom. In a world where monsters no longer hide, the deadliest are the ones who smile.

Welcome to the future, written in the past. A mutant plague has rendered part of the population as zombie-like humanoids. They have a conscious mind though, but their craving for brains is a bit of an antisocial issue. Being mostly made up of impoverished individuals, it is not surprised that they got cured cheaply and lastly, despite being the main test subjects. Lochlyn is their representative. She just wanted an education beyond elementary school. A little luckier stricken part of the infected population evolved into reverents. Reverants have a feudal system over the zombies to "keep them in order". The luck may have had to do with them being upper-class when being treated. Basilica is their representative. At eighteen, she wanted body modifications, a job, and etc... as a rite of passage entering adulthood. At least that's what she was thinking. The more she was told no, the more she wondered what she could do. There are still uninfected humans left in the U.S.A. Most of them are middle-class. Katrina is their representative. She gained a family member, but lost two. She aches to find out why she can never return home again. The three eighteen-year-old females, along with their beaus, journey for truth, equality, justice, restoration, love, and freedom lead them to the same end: the capital.

Cover art by me IG: @dancing.with.the.devil.2023 Teacher!Dean Student!Cas highschool au Dean Winchester always wanted to teach high school english. Every since he was little he wrote stories about monsters and demons and angels to escape from the beatings of his drunk father, John. After he lands a job at his little brother Sams high school, he meets the one and only Castiel Novak. He can't help but notice his magnificent ocean blue eyes, and the way he tilts his head when he's confused about something, or his raven black sex hair. Dean couldn't help but feel an ache in his chest every time he sees him, but he had no clue why. Castiel Novak only had two years of school left before he could finally escape the hell that is Sioux Falls High School. Every since he moved here he's had a hard time making friends. After all, being gay wasn't a good thing to be at his school. He would constantly get mentally and emotionally abused by his classmates. Two more years, he kept telling himself, and then he would graduate and get a degree in fine arts. When the new English teacher, Mr. Winchester, shows up Castiel immediately takes interest. Maybe, it was his gorgeous Emerald green eyes, or his ashy blonde hair that was always spiked up perfectly. Whatever it was, Castiel knew he would like this new teacher. His Savior. *** WARNING ⚠️: This story contains little violence, mild language, and boyxboy love, meaning two males kissing and holding hands, including gay sex! If you are uncomfortable with any of these I suggest not reading so as you can remain mentally healthy (or if you're uncomfortable with gay people to just, not be uncomfortable I guess)!

"Your type of fun is dancing with every guy in there!?" "What if it is?!" I said. It isn't but I know it will make him mad and I'm angry he has no right to judge me.
