Jared Stern is going to die. That is, unless he can stop a vampire before the vampire gets his fangs in him... 

✶✞  

When righteous daydreamer Jared Stern chances upon the vampire Keen's murderous meal, he's thrust into a battle against a creature that keeps his secrets close. Stakes are raised as he commits to vampire hunting, and Jared quickly finds himself in up to his neck with their game of cat and mouse spiraling across the city.

But there's more to this charismatic monster than meets the eye, and Keen, not easily deterred, takes an interest of his own in his would-be slayer. As he starts to reveal a human face, driving a stake through skin and bone proves harder than it looks in the movies. 

Can Jared stop a killer without becoming one himself? Is there any way to get through to a monster, or are some divides not meant to be bridged? 

This is Star-Cross, Book I: Keen's Turn.

Updates moonly.

Hybrid's Hollow, écrit par ImmortalKissvv
74 chapitres Terminé Contenu pour adultes
Supernatural creatures are real. They are a part of the world now, instead of hiding in the shadows. They want to belong. Will they? When Davyna's mother is killed protecting her from a vampire attack at their home, she vows never to be weak or unprepared again when it comes to ANY supernatural. But when her father is chosen to oversee the integration and safety of the human race within the new world, Davyna is forced to be in the absolute last place she ever wanted to be - and although she sees some good in these creatures, she struggles to accept being among them harmoniously, and chooses to close herself off to most. That is, until she meets a certain werewolf and vampire. As wars brew, secrets arise, and identities are discovered, will Davyna rise up and embrace her place in the supernatural world? Or will she abandon it all for a life of revenge and isolation, that's only filled with pain and intense hate? ______________________________________ [COMPLETED JANUARY 9th, 2021] [18+, some mature content/themes, sex, swearing.] [Sexual themed chapters will be labelled with a disclaimer, and have been written in a way that you can skip these scenes if you prefer.] [Kindness is greatly appreciated!

But is having anxiety the end of the world? Mason Stewart doesn't think so. **** Evelyn is the new girl of Gateway High where she wants to finish her senior year without making herself vulnerable, keeping her anxiety and craziness a secret and without falling in love.

But after having a panic attack right in his arms, tables turn for Evelyn.

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. Even worse, her homecoming falls on the eve of the Blue Moon Summit, when she will not only have to face her pack leaders but also some of the most powerful leaders from around the world, and she is terrified they could sniff out the truth. Just as she fears she could possibly lose her pack, and everything she has worked for, a chance encounter with a mysterious wolf on the night of the full moon ignites her mate bond and stirs her dormant wolf. Who is her mystery mate, and will he be her liberator or persecutor?

❝ Let's find you a new home, shall we? ❞ •○• A cold Shifter General. A bloodthirsty Vampire Prince. A powerful Fae King. A mysterious protective werewolf Alpha. And a human girl. The question was - why were the strings of fate bringing them together? •○• 18 year old, sharp and vigilant Cara Arnel was one step away from slavery freedom and being sold. And being caught by the Shifter General of the Vampire Army was most certainly not a part of that plan. Nor was becoming a scullery maid or an assaulted slave in the Royal Palace instead of a blood bag or sex slave. But that was when things started to change. Tensions became high and fights broke out in the unstable supernatural world with the return of Lucifer's son: Killian after more than four centuries. Her visions started again. And a bit too many supernatural males were willing to protect her for no reason whatsoever. Turns out, Cara might not be as insignificant as she thought. Yet, she was undoubtedly human. And it seemed, she wasn't as well informed of her past as she thought. If her memories were the ones to be relied upon. At least.......the ones she had of this life. •○• Shortlisted for Wattpad India Awards 2021 (Please don't copy the story line. It's all mine. A figment of my imagination.
