When Lenore faces an unexpected betrayal, it brings her face to face with a man who calls himself Kaiser. He's cloaked in mystery and his ultimate goal is unknown, but his promise of revenge is too good to turn down. With the unknown power supporting her, Lenore sets forth on a chaotic journey to bring down the gods of her world. But the further she travels down this ill-begotten path the more she uncovers about the people she once called family and the "god" they have devoted themselves to. A simple plot for revenge begins to unravel into something more. And Lenore can't help but question what it is that Kaiser truly wants from her? Because it appears that he may be more centered in this tale than he claimed. To whatever end, Lenore knows there is no turning back from this path. Cover by @still_just_me
So fetching in blood my darling Queen: Seraph of the End by amberandshadow
31 parts Complete Mature
FINISHED AND COMPLEATED. In the ashes of betrayal, monsters are reborn. Krul Tepes once ruled as queen-until Ferid Bathory drained her dry and paraded her corpse before the vampire council. But death is just another shadow for creatures like them. When Krul rises again, she doesn't seek vengeance. She seeks something darker: obsession, power, and the one vampire who destroyed her. Ferid welcomes her return with open arms and a razor-edged smile. Their every encounter is a war-of words, of wills, of blood. He's sadistic, charming, and unrepentant; she's regal, wrathful, and centuries old behind her childlike frame. They fight, they scheme, they bleed-but neither can let the other go. Amid gothic halls and candlelit courts, Krul and Ferid are forced into a dangerous alliance. Theirs is not a love story. It is a slow-burning spiral of manipulation, violence, and twisted intimacy where every touch is a threat and every secret could kill. As ancient enemies close in and vampire society unravels, their obsession turns from poison to power. Bound by blood, haunted by memory, they will either destroy each other-or become legends the world will fear. This is the story of monsters who find solace not in redemption, but in each other's ruin.
Where The Stars Keep Us by quinn_between_
36 parts Complete Mature
In a city that never truly sleeps, a neon-drenched club hums below an ancient house where secrets, shadows, and teeth wait in the dark. Here, vampires rule the night - beautiful, cruel, and bound by rules older than the streets they hunt on. When Yasmin wakes up in River's world - a world of donors, covens, and velvet-draped danger - she thinks she's just another pretty thing for him to keep. But River is no ordinary predator. He's charming, unreadable, with a mind that slips through secrets as easily as teeth slip through skin. He promises safety. He promises she's free to go. But the club's heartbeat thrums with other truths: once you step inside, you never really leave. Rain, the coven's ruthless enforcer, shifts between human and beast, guarding the house's fragile peace. Solana bends the elements to her will, her power both breathtaking and terrifying. And in the basement - behind locked doors and hungry whispers - the line between consent and carnage is thinner than Yasmin ever imagined. As dawns come and go behind UV-proof glass, Yasmin finds herself torn between the danger River embodies and the monsters he keeps at bay. The deeper she drifts into this den of fangs and velvet shadows, the more she wonders what she's becoming - prey, or something far more dangerous. In a world where night is a promise and trust is currency, Yasmin will have to decide: run while she still can, or carve out a place among predators who might just devour her whole. Where the Stars Keep Us is a dark, gothic urban fantasy pulsing with danger, desire, and the secrets we keep when the sun goes down.
