Year of Damnation, Tom Riddle by girlpools

I'll be your slaughterhouse, your killing floor, your morgue, and final resting. Harry Potter / Tom Riddle girlpools, 2023

Runic Storm (ONC 2022) by KaraTales

It was supposed to be a quick job, in and out, no problems. Accidentally freeing a high profile prisoner on her way out and subsequently discovering an evil scheme, was not part of the plan. Suddenly, it's her own face that Kaia finds on the front of a wanted poster. Forced to work together, she and the fugitive are on the run until they find a way to figure out the big picture. But that is not her only worry. She needs to deal with the situation fast, or her overprotective twin will find out and come looking for her. And that is an even more frightening prospect than running from a villain who wants to see her dead. - A novel version of the story will be updated under "Runic Domination". If you are a new reader, refer to that version. - ONC 2022 Prompt: 69. I never wanted, or intended to become a bounty hunter, but my little sister had to go and get herself on a poster, WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE, didn't she? Now I've got to get to her first, because everyone else wants her dead.

Wyld Heart (Wyld Heart 1) by AJSCURRAH

Forsaken by the one person who was supposed to love her unconditionally, Red must brave the magic and monsters of the Wylds to find her true place in the world. ***** Plagued by a weak heart, Red is an outcast in the Blood Moon Pack, a tribe of savage wolf-shifters held together by two things: their fanatic worship of the Night Goddess, and the ashwood walls that keep the real monsters out. Everybody must pull their weight. Only the strong are permitted to survive... Hunter Callahan, son of the Blood Moon Alpha, is counted among the strongest. Only Red seems to sense the vulnerability lurking behind his arrogant mask. Only she can understand the compassion underlying his violence; the boy who took a beating as a child to spare a butterfly from having its wings clipped. She saw herself in that butterfly. She sees herself in him. And he can barely stand to look at her. ***** [65-70k words] Best Ranks: 13th in #Werewolf 1st in #paranormalromance, #quest, #goddess and #dragon 2nd in #magic Featured on the 2021 Wattys Shortlist.

Never Green | ONC 2023 by elmaloney

ONC Shortlister 2023! There are few rules in the Kingdom of Kadotaru, and punishment is not kind, even for the young prince who wishes he was anybody else. Tied to the crown, to his family, to his kingdom, there isn't much he can do. He isn't born to bear the crown, to rule over all the creatures of Kadotaru, but it still haunts him. He never thought to break a rule, there was too much fear deep in his heart. He never thought to break any rules, until she was able to see him. Humans. Humans don't have true sight. They aren't seers, or creatures of Kadotaru. So why can she see him? Why does she reach out to help him? And why did he have to break Kadotaru's most sacred rule? ------------------------------------------------------- This novella will include extreme violence. There will be warnings at the beginning of the chapters that include this show of brutality, but do not reach this novella if you do not wish to read horrific scenes.
