ONC SHORTLISTER 2024 

Senar Kil is a powerful vampire who harbors a deadly secret: she can no longer drink blood. If her secret gets out, the other vampires will kill her in order to claim her status.

Adrian Namgung is an infamous vampire who knows Senar is hiding something and will do anything he can to find out what it is. Problem is, he has a deadly secret of his own.

The two vampires are thrust into a game of cat and mouse as they try to figure out who knows what. It should be easy, but, as they spend more and more time with each other, the tension between them becomes all but impossible to ignore.

Except keeping secrets from vampires is easier said than done, and soon, both Senar and Adrian have to confront their own demons if they want to make it out alive.

The Color Violet by normalZy

"Is my soul too dark for you, Soel?" His voice softened, a whisper on the edge of the night, he asked, shadows pooling in his eyes, the kind that held secrets older than the city itself. ✧ Soel Sinclair has spent the last six years building a life on her own terms. At 23, she runs a thriving design company, wears confidence like her favorite jacket, and has tucked away the girl she used to be-the one who believed in fate and first loves. But some shadows are harder to outrun, and no shadow is darker than The Vampirez. The band's music was the soundtrack to her youth, their enigmatic lead singer, Hael, the face of every daydream. One night, one chance encounter, and then he vanished-until now. What Soel doesn't know is that Hael is more than a rockstar. He is a vampire, centuries old, living under ancient laws that make loving a human a dangerous game. He has watched her from afar, his secret world brushing against hers, knowing that one misstep could unravel them both. When their paths cross again, the line between reality and myth blurs. As Soel is drawn deeper into Hael's orbit, she begins to sense the secrets beneath his skin and the darkness that comes with them. But with every truth uncovered, the dangers multiply, and the choice between love and safety becomes razor thin. Some rules are meant to be broken. But breaking them could cost everything.

Checkmate by emaguir3

The High Class of Europe. Or should I say the vampires? Everybody knows they exist, yet it is an unspoken rule to stay silent about them. You wouldn't want to risk one of them hearing you talk bad about them. The punishment for something as simple as that is unspeakable. The Vampires have built an empire from the dirt of London and have reigned for thousands of years. They continue to drag terror everywhere they step. Now in every high class, there's the low respected, middle of the pack, and the elites. Obviously, none are as interesting as the Elites of society. The cremé of the crop. Allow me to introduce you to Zara Delcour, Kaspian Auclair, Mackenzie Rousseau, and Nox Toussaint, the most powerful young adults of them all. And the great thing is? They're not going anywhere. But people are always looking for the next best thing or the next biggest deal. Alliances are formed. Threats are made. And it's all one big game of chess. + Due to harsh imagery, descriptive visuals, possible triggering moments, and certain mature themes in this novel, it is rated MATURE. There will be trigger warnings at the start of the chapters where mature scenes are held for those of you who would prefer to skip over them! (I cannot guarantee that you won't miss something crucial to the novel in those scenes.)
