In the quiet town of Dawnwood, where everyone knew everyone else's name, Ayla Vasquez had always been the odd one out. While her neighbors reveled in tranquil nights and sweet dreams, Ayla found solace in the chilling embrace of horror. She devoured classic tales like Dracula and Frankenstein with a hunger that bordered on obsession. Her nights were spent binge-watching the blood-curdling screams of Scream and the relentless stalking of Halloween's Michael Myers.

For Ayla, it was all just a delightful scare, a thrill that sent shivers down her spine and kept her wide awake. Until the nightmares she had once read and watched for amusement started creeping into reality. People began vanishing without a trace, leaving behind a haunting silence that echoed through the town.

The most devastating loss was that of her older brother, Liam, who had always dismissed Ayla's love for the macabre as harmless. But now, Liam was gone, and Dawnwoods whispered of an unknown terror lurking in the shadows. The only clue to the elusive killer was a collection of dark, twisted versions of lullabies, each one tainted with a chilling crimson stain.

Ayla refused to let fear consume her. Armed with her encyclopedic knowledge of horror stories and a handful of dubious alliances, she embarked on a perilous journey into the heart of darkness. Determined to uncover the truth and avenge her brother's disappearance, Ayla must decipher the cryptic lullabies, confront her own worst nightmares, and face a malevolent force that may not be of this world.

In "Your Worst Lullaby," the line between fiction and reality blurs as Ayla races against time, chasing a merciless killer who is all too eager to turn her into the next victim. Will her love for horror become her greatest weapon, or will it lead her down a path from which there's no return? Brace yourself for a spine-tingling tale of terror, suspense, and the relentless pursuit of a nightmare that refuses to stay confined to the pages of a book.

Book 1 of (The Awakening Series) {#1 Supernatural} {#1 Paranormal} {#1 Lycans} {#1 Vampire Romance} {#5 Royalty} The world went to shit long before I was born. Humans like me use to believe other species were nothing more than fictional characters, myths, or figures of one's imagination. But that was before vampires left the shadows and decided to reveal their species to the world. I've been told that teenage girls use to fantasize about being swooshed off their feet by those mysterious creatures. Insane. Matter of fact, insane would be an understatement, they were fucking lunatics. Vampires are not some fictional character that would love you like no other. No, vampires are not some sort of myth, and they most certainly are not, a figment of anyone's imagination. They are very real, and they despise the human race. In fact, they have enslaved my entire species and formed a new world. Each continent is owned by a ruthless, bloodsucking, barbaric, the vampire king. Every single one of them has played a part in the war of the awakening, showing no mercy, killing without question. Humans didn't even stand a chance. Our army and world leaders were killed or imprisoned in less than a couple of days. They slaughtered my race, but it didn't stop there. No, that was only the beginning of human suffering. Trust me when I say the death was truly a kindness, because anyone who survived the awakening, would beg for death. I was positive that my suffering would come to an end when I turned eighteen. I was hoping and praying to be marked as a feeder, nothing more, nothing less. Death was the only way out of this world. You see, all of the kings who ruled over the earth were cruel and calculating. They are all tyrants in their own right and they all answered to one vampire. Who was known as the most barbaric of them all and I was marked as his chosen. The King of all Vampire Kings.

Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest.

This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20.

Taken to the castle by the Vampire King, her life is full of uncertainties when a powerful force threatens to destroy everything she holds dear. *** I walk over just in time for the door to open and see a tall man get out. Immediately, I feel this strange sensation in my body, like something is pulling me to him. His chocolate brown eyes roam over me in curiosity but when our eyes meet, that's when everything changes. His shine bright red and all I hear are my beasts murmuring the word "mate" in realization. I step back in shock, an action that he doesn't seem to appreciate. He snarls, marching towards me and pulling me flush against his chest. I bite my lip when the skin contact feels like my body is rejoicing; as if I had been missing a piece to the puzzle my whole life. He has no body heat and it immediately makes me shiver. I stare up at him, still reeling from everything that's happened and now this. "I've finally found you, my beloved." He murmurs low enough for just us to hear, staring down at me in awe.
