To Kill A Warlock, An Urban Fantasy Romance by hpmallory

I'm a Regulator-a law-enforcement agent who monitors the creatures of the Netherworld to keep them from wreaking havoc in the mortal world. When a dark-arts warlock is murdered and I was the last person to see him alive, I've got two choices. Either figure out whodunnit before I'm deported back to the Netherworld, or before I become the next victim. So, yeah, it's really more like I've got one choice. Enter Knight Vander, a cocky investigator sent from the Netherworld to work the case with me. Knight is what's called a Loki and he's the first of his kind I've ever come across. He was created by Hades, in Hades' own image and can I just say that Hades must have been pretty hot... Yeah, Knight is the sexiest guy I've ever seen but he's also bossy, demanding, and way too convinced of his own self-importance. As the body count increases, I find myself having to keep a sadistic demon in check all the while fending off the advances of a super powerful vampire, Bram. And dealing with Knight isn't exactly a walk in the park. Sometimes working law enforcement for the Netherworld is a real...

A Country Thug's Lovin' by TheRealAriJ15

Yara Love is everything her parents ever dreamed of-successful, driven, and brilliant in the courtroom. As one of the youngest partners at her prestigious Dallas law firm, she's spent her life chasing excellence and ignoring the ache that comes from loneliness, control, and the aftermath of a love that nearly broke her. Her mother says she's too focused on her career. Her friends say she's scared of intimacy. Yara just says she's fine. Then a weekend trip to rural Texas changes everything. Sevion Taylor is a man of quiet power. Raised in the shadows of the streets, he's since built a life of solitude on his sprawling ranch-horses, dirt roads, and a silence he wears like armor. But behind his peaceful exterior is a dangerous past and a loss that still haunts him. He doesn't look for love, and he damn sure doesn't trust it. But when Yara walks into his world, she stirs something in him he thought he'd buried. What begins as stolen glances and late-night conversations becomes something deeper-slow-burning, raw, and real. As they learn each other through farm chores, city visits, secrets, and scars, Yara and Sevion must decide if love is strong enough to hold two people pulled in opposite directions. When old wounds surface and the noise of the world creeps back in-through ghosts from his past and demands from hers-they'll both have to ask the same question: Can a love born between two worlds survive when both are being pulled apart?

Fallin' For My Bodyguard by TheRealAriJ15

✨ She built a brand. He built a wall. Now they're both learning how to love past the pain. ✨ Allure King is more than a face-she's a force. A world-renowned model and influencer with a multi-million dollar empire built on beauty, resilience, and control. But behind the flawless photos and fierce reputation lies a woman quietly unraveling. After years of loyalty, love, and sacrifice, she finds herself publicly betrayed by the man she gave everything to-NBA star Malik James. Enter Romelo Creed. Fresh out of prison and trying to outrun the shadows of his past, Romelo takes a job protecting Allure... only to find himself drawn to the fire in her spirit, and the sadness in her silence. He's rough around the edges, deadly when necessary, but soft when it matters most. As her bodyguard, he was supposed to protect her from the world. He never expected she'd be the one to save him. What starts as tension turns into trust. What feels like lust begins to blur into something deeper. But Malik isn't finished-his stunts grow bolder, and the past refuses to stay buried. As the media stirs the drama and secrets begin to surface, Allure and Romelo are forced to confront the one thing they've both been avoiding: How do you protect a heart that's never felt safe? Love was never in the plan. But fate doesn't care about plans.

Hellfire by Tophat

As a witch, it was expected Susan would have hellfire - a vicious magic that's the bane of all immortals. However, hers is so wild she risks turning everything around her to ash. A Bright witch, they call her - hell incarnate. The only person keeping her in check is Lucius Vortigern - the vampire lord of Bath and a man with too much power for Susan's liking. In return for being the only thing preventing her going up in flames or being slain by her own kind, she acts as his sword to guard his city and the blood-bag to sate his addiction. As a result, Lucius and his own are hers to protect, be it from their own mistakes, Lucius' dangerously flaring tempers, the wolves that bay for Vortigern blood or the monster that sleeps in the depths of the house. This is a supernatural, erotic romance, and an experiment of classic vampire tropes. Book one of the Oldworld series. These books are stand alone and can be read in any order. Cover is my own art (updated 2024). Written between June 2020 - Dec 2022 Author's note - Please be mindful of what you're saying when commenting. I'm happy with helpful criticism, spelling/grammar pointers, questions or simple chatter. However, a tirade of needless, unhelpful complaints and just outright rude commentary is not welcome. My stories are terrible first drafts, they're going to be riddled with issues, so just politely highlight if you feel there's a problem. I'll listen and likely take on board the criticism. And if you're not enjoying it, that's fine, just move on and thank you for giving it a shot. This is a re-write of 'Lust for Her Master's Blood' and, while the gist of the plot is mostly the same, a lot of how it happens, the lore and the characters have been completely rebuilt from the ground up. The original can be found in the Old World Original Drafts for those who are curious or prefer it.
