Stolen by Fate by MeganTT11

Naomi "Ni" Johnson is an ordinary girl living in a small town. She has dreams of moving to the city and pursuing her passion for art. However, her life takes an unexpected and terrifying turn when she's kidnapped one evening by a mysterious and dangerous man named Adrian Blackwood. Adrian, a brooding and powerful figure in the criminal underworld, has been watching Ni for weeks. At first, his reasons for kidnapping her seem cold and calculated-he believes she's the key to settling a vendetta with her estranged family, who betrayed him years ago. Ni's family, once involved in shady dealings, has tried to stay out of Adrian's reach, but now he has found a way to get his revenge: by taking their daughter. In Adrian's secluded mansion, surrounded by forests and an icy lake, Ni is trapped. She tries to escape multiple times, but each time Adrian catches her, though he never harms her. Instead, he shows unexpected softness, an emotion she doesn't expect from a criminal like him. Ni soon learns that Adrian's life is far more complicated than it appears on the surface. As time passes, the tension between them grows. Adrian is torn-his plans of revenge are slipping away, replaced by a desire to protect Ni, to keep her close for reasons he cannot admit to himself. Meanwhile, Ni finds herself drawn to Adrian's intensity, his tortured past, and the flickers of vulnerability he shows only around her. She fights her feelings, determined not to fall for the man who has taken her freedom. But slowly, her fear turns to understanding, and understanding turns to love. Yet, danger lurks as Adrian's enemies close in. Ni must decide if she can truly trust Adrian or if their love is doomed from the start. Together, they'll have to face the ghosts of Adrian's past, and Ni will need to confront her own demons if they are to survive-and find happiness in the darkness.

The Reluctant Cougar (Rise of the Alpha King's Heir) by AmouraLucinda

*Complete but still subject to edits* Ben Cougar and Eileen Grau have been best friends since they were kids. For the young cougar-shifter, it was love at first sight. For the ostracized Vampire girl, it was good to have a friend--even if he was six years younger. Time changes all things, however, and when Eileen comes home from college Ben is no longer "little" in any sense of the word. He has a young man's body, a young man's desires, and he's done letting other men break his woman's heart. Ignorant people might call her a cougar, but if Ben has his way, soon everybody will be calling her Mrs. Cougar. Shapeshifter x vampire Older woman x younger man *** A few notes: This story takes place in the late '90s/early 2000s. This is a prequel, and while it does lead into the next story it can be read as a HEA standalone. This is an instant-love, slow-burn story that will include dirty talk and some some tamer aspects of kink-play as the characters' relationship progresses. Also, because I want everybody to have a happily ever after, this story will occasionally take detours into the minds and relationships of the side characters. I hope you enjoy! ***** #1 in cougar 8/2/21 #1 in olderwoman 12/8/21 #1 in youngerman 11/20/21 #1 in fatedlovers 8/2/21 #1 in bloodmates 12/27/22 #5 in loveconquersall 11/5/23 #9 in energy 12/8/21 #12 in empathy 12/8/21 #12 in nineties 11/5/23

A Face Made For Daylight by hellcatcavern

This is part one of two books (book two is ongoing on my account). I use music in chapters like in film scenes. The story is mature and the smut does get graphic as the story progresses. I'm a history buff and I love writing comedy skits, so there is a lot of comedy and carefully researched historical events peppered into the book. --- A story of love, betrayal, bloodlust, and the supernatural. Set in our current time with flashes to 1920s, 50s and 60s ❤️ He, a cursed twin brother. She, a dying human. After 40 days of transitioning, vampires become immune to the curse of the sun and can walk in daylight. Alistair, was a vampire able to enjoy the California sun whenever he pleased. Cursed by a scorned lover, Alistair can never walk in daylight again unless he can prove worthy of true love, like the love the sun radiates. A playboy, cocky womanizer in search for "The One". Someone must love him for the monster he is. Someone he can not compel. Stella suffers from a rare blood disorder. Her treatments stopped working and she is slowly dying. Her blood is poisonous to vampires. He can't have her. Stella is The One. She is his last hope. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I wanted to write a story inspired by AM and TLSP. Based on the gimmicks of various looks Alex Turner sported (AM Dracula, late SIAS, Teddy boy, EYCTE, and bearded TBHC). This main character, Alistair, is inspired by Turner's Dracula gimmick. It is purely inspired. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dawn of Kleftis by Skaursgaurd

WARNING: THIS STORY CONTAINS SCENES THAT SOME MAY FIND TRIGGERING. UPDATE: SUNDAY HEADS UP: I associate music a lot with writing. One I can do, the other I can't lol. Like all my stories, each chapter will have a song or songs attached, I recommend you listen to each to grasp the full gravity of the story. Comments will be left for when you should change song. Alex spends most of his days alone and that's the way he likes it. The world isn't like it used to be, and going alone is the easier option. Monsters invaded, bringing with them death and plague. They left their scars on humanity, on him. What will he do when he's forced to face his demons, and the end of his quiet life? Will he be able to retain his humanity? "We don't know who's doing this to us, what root it's growing from, or why. They came with blood, ash, and war. Humanity retreated away to its bastion as the darkness clouded around us, and then they came. Our beacons of light." Art by ORYANIMA Twitter.com/Oryanima Instagram.com/Oryanima

Moon Bound by AlaraBirch

UPDATED WEEKLY He finally released my legs, allowing me to slide down his body until my feet hit the floor, but that was as far as he let me go. Heat was radiating off him scorching me all the way down my spine as he held me tightly against him. His quick breaths were falling on the back of my neck with a tingling warmth that brought goosebumps to the surface of my skin. Placing one large hand on my shoulder, he wrapped my long brown hair around his other. Gently, he tugged on my dark mane, pulling my head to the side and exposing the tender column of my neck. Bringing his nose down to the crook there, he inhaled deeply, a rumbling "mmmm" escaping his lips. My mouth went dry. "Are-" I swallowed. "Are you going to mark me?" I manage in a stuttered whisper. Book Blurb: Dr. Willa Grey has developed a little bit of a performance problem... Willa has a plan for how she wants to spend her life. She even fought for a rare opportunity to attend human medical school. Unfortunately for Willa, the time among humans denying her wolf instincts has had dire consequences that could ultimately mean her life.
