A STUDY OF POISONS BOOK 2
_____

We've vowed to protect humans from Vampires. Vampires are ruthless and should be eradicated- that is the old way. However in the modern world, tradition still finds its way around us.

Cordelia Greerson was the one who got away, on the run and hiding from the Keepers as a proclaimed dead fugitive- she's vowed to rewrite her fate. However, she can never escape her destiny as the Judas Witch- traitor of all.

Then Delia is visited and she is asked by the Vampiric Queen to return to Romania as the Queen's Advisor and help protect court from the False Queen and the Keepers. In exchange for her work, Delia is promised to be freed from the Keepers forever.

However, death looms everywhere and so does the snake Natalia who still seeks to destroy everything.

_____

I shouldn't have come back, I should have stayed away. It's too dangerous here, but Alex needs me right now- even if he claims to not want me around. It doesn't matter because I'm stronger now. No matter what the others say.

I am Delia Greerson, I am the Judas Witch.

Two Drops More by bloodrosesthorns

(Book 2 in the 'Blood Drops' series) Five drops for the vampires who drink it. Four for the creatures who relish in it. Three for the strong who take it. Two for the weak who cower from it. One for the humans from whom it is taken. *** This book, along with all the others in this series, was written in a manic creative frenzy when I was about 11-12 years old. I do not consider it quality work, nor do I find it representative of my writing skills today. I will not take it down, because it is still fairly popular and I enjoy reflecting upon how I have developed my writing over the years. All I ask is that if you choose to read the book(s), please take into consideration that this was written by a tween many years ago, and that I am not the same person (or writer) as I was then. Thank you. *** Felicia Winters thought she had gotten away from the terrors of the vampire world and its king, Braith Avencrest. She was finally beginning to settle down and fall in love, when he entered her life forcefully again. But with werewolf plans coming to a boil and interspecies tensions rising, can she risk everything she has to make peace, once and for all, between the two species? For two drops more is still too little. Sequel to 'Just One Drop'; read that before this! If you have any constructive critiscism for me, please leave it in the comments or feel free to DM me (also I suck at summaries, so sorry about that). Cover by @-nightfalls

Crimson Veil (Book I) by AEStag

In the bustling, modern metropolis of Valoria, magic flows beneath the surface, known only to a select few. For centuries, ancient families of magical bloodlines have controlled the city's fate, living among humans as powerful, secret societies. They have wealth, influence, and magic at their disposal. But what no one knows is that the source of their power comes from an ancient, forbidden ritual called the "Crimson Veil," which requires them to form unbreakable sexual bonds with those possessing rare magical traits. These bonds heighten their abilities and carry dangerous emotional and physical consequences, twisting love and desire into weapons. At the centre of this tangled web is Elena Ravenwood, a brilliant and ambitious journalist with no idea that she is the last of a forgotten bloodline-one that was destroyed in a bloody purge by the ruling magical families. When she stumbles upon a mysterious underground gathering, Elena's latent powers are awakened, and she quickly becomes the target of three powerful men, each from rival families: Meanwhile, a deadly prophecy comes to light: one that foretells that Elena, once fully awakened, will become the key to either restoring balance to the magical world or destroying it entirely. Her growing power ignites intense rivalries, and the line between love and hate blurs as she discovers that betrayal, passion, and magic are inextricably linked. Reader's Discretion: This story contains explicit content, including mature themes of sensuality, intense romantic relationships, and power dynamics. Suitable for adult readers only. Viewer discretion is advised.

Thank you. *** 16 year old Felicia Winters had a life no one would be proud to call their own. No friends and a dysfunctional family; she had been bullied for most of her life. Until the day when she was captured by vampires, and sold to their prince, Braith. As a mysterious bond forms between them, they both deny it and refuse each other. But as Felicia drifts further and further from him, a rift begins to form within Braith, putting him and his entire kingdom- in fact, the whole world- at risk. But will she be able to love the man who has abused her so much? Or has she already found another love? And as a werewolf rebellion brews in the shadows, they are running out of time. Soon there will only be rubble left to rule over. Will Felicia be able to bring peace to the world, or will the kingdom crumble? For just one drop is never enough. Thanks for your votes and comments, they mean the world to me. Please help me with constructive criticism if you can! (Also, I suck at summaries, so sorry about that). Sequel 'Two More Drops' up now!

The Dark Witch: The Nox Haven Series by RowenaBlack

I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began. I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them. That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world. ... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all. ---------------------------------------------------------- Highest Rank: #2 in Paranormal 1st Place winner of The Night Shift's Killer Competition 4/10/16 Illustration by: Stephanie Pitino (www.ClairObscur.fr) (1st book in series)

Enslaved to Icarus (The Pariah Book 1) by shaziyakhanwrites

"The curse entailed that only the blood that sought yours, can free you of the curse, until then you shall be asleep." Icarus smirked at her words, he knew where this was going as she continued, "Because your blood is-" "Poisonous and repulsive." She nodded. "So, it's unbelievable that she was the one whose blood sought yours, a human, but it did, or perhaps it was your blood that sought hers...," she mulled over it. "But it's wrong, against the natural-" she observed his gaze. Talking about some natural order of the universe was not something that would befit his ears, given that he was the very example of the abomination formed against the natural laws and order of the blood. ~~ No one knew who he was, or where he came from? But he did, and he conquered all the existing realms, hidden and not so hidden from the human world, and built his kingdom upon the ruins of his enemies. Yet, he remained a pariah. Always was. Always will be. He was Icarus. The Monster. The Legend. The Evil. The Pariah. ~~ Everyone knew her to be a scared little kitten. She looked like one too with her snowy white hair, cerulean blue eyes, and a questionable fate. ~~ What was supposed to be a ridiculous adventure, suggested by her equally ridiculous brave friend turned her life into a whirlwind of crazy and bloody, when she stumbled and accidentally awakened the sleeping, ravenous, and absolutely psychotic monster, Icarus. What made her the lucky woman to jostle him out of his centuries of sleep? As a thanks, she was rewarded with the title of being his most beloved SLAVE. Dive into their journey as we unravel their ribbons of fate, and immerse ourselves into their complicated relationship. ~~ This book is a dark fantasy romance novel and Icarus is an original fantasy character that I created. He is not a vampire or a werewolf but something entirely new and interesting.

Lamech is the leader of the biggest vampire clan in the world. Since taking the leadership, he's worked without rest to stop vampires from killing to feed, as well as improve the bad reputation they have. When the two meet, Crimson believes that Lamech has turned a teenage girl into a vampire and is determined to kill him. A determination that fades as she realizes he is her mate. Instead, she decides to never accept him. As a vampire, Lamech does not feel the mate bond. He does, however, feel intrigued, worried, and confused by Crimson. He also knows that she's a danger to his kind and as such, he decides to lock her up until he's figured her out.

Fated by JaideHarley

****COMPLETED**** "You're driving me crazy," I growled, dropping my hand down to her waist then around to her lower back, sucking her earlobe into my mouth and dragging my teeth along it. She groaned and dropped her head back against the wall. Her sounds were intoxicating. I could smell how much she was responding to me and it brought my need for her out even more. I cupped her cheek and brought my lips over to hers, just barely brushing against them. "Addie," I whispered against her mouth, threading my hand through her hair. ... Addie has been abducted and thrown into the supernatural world. She discovers vampires have kidnapped her to manipulate an Alpha werewolf. Not just any werewolf, her mate. Or so the guy in the cell next to her says. Problem is, they've underestimated her because she's human. She's going to show them how much damage a human can do. Alpha Xander's past comes back to haunt him and his Beta has been missing for two days. Xander is finally contacted and offered a deal: his life for his Beta's and the mate he has yet to meet. He's been waiting his whole life to meet his mate and will do anything to keep her safe. Except she doesn't need as much help as he thought she might. #2 in pack on 5/22 #1 in mates 6/22 WARNING This is an adult book. It will have mature language and scenes.

Confessions of a Vampire Queen by theBigbadwolfe

In a world of immortal intrigue, Queen Selenia, the sophisticated leader of the Sisterhood, has spent decades perfecting her deadly artistry - transforming from savage predator to noble vampire, crafting elaborate traps, and infiltrating high society through a string of calculated marriages. But her carefully orchestrated world faces its greatest challenge in Rowan, the Wolf Hero, champion of her mortal enemy, the Princess. When Rowan's elite Wolf Knights breach her castle's defenses, leaving his loyal brotherhood gravely wounded, Selenia finally has him where she wants him - alone in her domain. Yet their battle becomes a dangerous dance of seduction as past encounters and buried secrets threaten to surface. Trapped between duty and desire, hero and monster, Rowan must confront his growing feelings for the very creature he's sworn to destroy. Meanwhile, Selenia orchestrates her deadliest performance yet, knowing that in this game of love and war, someone's heart must shatter like the fragments of their shared past. With Gothic grandeur, supernatural action, and darkly romantic tension, "Confessions of a Vampire Queen" weaves a tale where beauty and beast blur, where music mingles with mayhem, and where true monsters might not be what they seem. Will love triumph over loyalty? Can enemies become lovers? Or will their dangerous obsession end in mutual destruction? For in Selenia's castle, every trap is an invitation, every battle a courtship, and every confession could be their last. Let the deadly waltz begin.
