A short story prompt for a writing club I'm in
I had a month to write it and a 12.5k word limit! It deserves to be longer so I probably should have done something that works well with the limit, but I had a really fun time writing out a concept start for this larger story I'm working on :)
Again, this is a concept story! it has it's flaws, I look forward to rewriting it sometime in the future :)
The story will explain things somewhat as you read through, but if you would like, here is a setting synopsis:
At the end of the 21st century humanity fell to a incurable blight, the Blood Curse, and civilization as it was known collapsed with it. It was only through the biological properties of vampires, whom have existed as long as humans, that humanity could safely stave off the curse. One thousand years later, humanity and vampires have grown together through this mutual need, human's needing their curses to be sated, Vampires needing human blood for sustenance. A once tumultuous relationship of predator and prey now was one of equal standing and reverence. Not all human's have taken kindly to this new order of things however, and societies do exist that reject vampires and dangerously brave the curse on their own. In recent years these human's have become more brave and more daring, and in an ambush on Wyatt's village, Karva the town vampire has been injured and cannot satiate the curse for a time, right when a young child, Kuuno, is in dire need of it. Wyatt, a fledgling vampire yet to conquer their thirst for blood, Yeshen a doctor's apprentice, and Kuuno, the young child, venture out into the woods set for the nearest village and it's vampire to save the young boy. In this thick forest and uncertain times, what will they discover, and will they make it to their destination safely?
Not mature for the younger audiences.

I don't like explaining my books because when I do I tend to write everything that happens, so I am just going to say that I come up with these horribly dark ideas and put them into books, of course these books may be sad, and maybe even a bit sadistic, and in my mind they are badass, but when I write them down I don't feel as if I can show what I am truly imagining.
I feel as if they suck, but my best friend tells me that they are amazing and that I better publish them when I finish so I did. Obviously.
So eh.
Yes, I know I happen to say this in each of my story descriptions but I truly do end up ruining the story if I write about it.
There is foul language, sexual content, stupidity, and most likely some grammar errors, so I'm just forewarning anyone that reads it.
I also try to make each chapter 2000 words or more, I suppose if that isn't enough someone will eventually tell me so here you go.
><><><><><><><><><><>
Book 1- Deceived
Book 2- Different
Book 3- Ruthless
There is another series that ties to this one, of course I don't name my series so I will just give the names of the books in order, but they should be read first, although it doesn't honestly matter as long as Ruthless is read last.
Book 1- Broken
Book 2- Forsaken
Book 3- Fallen
