James Miller, a name once whispered with grudging respect in the underbelly of the city, was a husk of his former self. Ex-Special Forces, ex-Street Crime, the man who navigated shadows now found himself drowning in them. A private eye gig, a labyrinth of corporate secrets, and then...oblivion. One wrong turn, then darkness, and the world James knew bled crimson. He didn't choose the darkness, the fangs, the insatiable hunger. Now, reborn into a world where humanity is the hunted, James stumbles into a monstrous society. Here, the lines between predator and prey are razor-thin, and survival demands a thirst for more than just blood. This wasn't justice, wasn't redemption. This was a descent into a nightmare where the monsters are real, and the only escape is the final embrace of oblivion. The city may sleep, but beneath the veil, James Miller will learn a terrible truth - the monsters are not only real, they've just added him to their ranks.All Rights Reserved

Suspect Number Five | ONC 2023 by SpruceWolf

Tristan Young is, by all logical conclusions, a failure. His dream career of private investigation has left him with nothing but debt and an empty office. So when a mysterious phone call makes him a grand promise of fame and success, the decision to accept is simple. There is only one price for his ambition: one night in the local manor, and one dinner with five strangers. Easy enough. Until, sometime in the dark, the price turns bloody. With one of the party's attendees now dead and no other suspects but the remaining five, they are all thrust deep into a murder case riddled with secrets. For Tristan, it should be his fantasy come true; he finally has a puzzle to solve and a chance to put his skills to use. But the games in his head never placed himself as a puzzle piece. The game becomes a race. He has to clear his name and win what he was promised before it's too late. -♧- Written for the Open Novella Contest 2023, using prompt 49. -- ONC Shortlister -- [cover art by the amazing @-aceospades-]

MONSTERS WEAR MASKS by Whizzkid0802

Detective Elias Voss spent years chasing shadows, hunting down the enigmatic criminal known as The Watcher-a mastermind who used riddles and twisted games to expose the darkest truths of society. But when Voss finally catches the villain, the true game begins. The Watcher doesn't fight. They don't run. They simply smile and whisper: "You were never supposed to find me." From that moment, Voss's world begins to unravel. As he delves deeper into the case, the lines between justice and corruption blur. He bends rules, breaks laws, and makes choices he swore he never would-all in the name of stopping the evil he once despised. But every step forward only leads him closer to a chilling realization: He isn't hunting the Watcher anymore. He is becoming them. Now, the city is searching for a new villain. What they don't realize is that their hero has already transformed into the monster he was chasing. And as the final riddle is left behind-etched in walls, whispered in the streets, painted in mirrored eyes-one question remains: "Was he always meant to fall... or did the world push him to it?" In this gripping psychological thriller, Monsters Wear Masks explores the terrifying truth that sometimes, the only difference between a detective and a villain... is perspective.

KIDNAPPED by 06Aman

The vines always grow back. Reneè never wanted to be a hero. She just wanted to survive. After witnessing a brutal murder tied to the infamous Mr. Carlisle, seventeen-year-old Reneè becomes the last living witness-and his next target. Carlisle is a ghost, a myth whispered in the city's underbelly, and his influence reaches far beyond the shadows. With her aunt branding her a monster and her only friend vanished, the police are her only hope. But when Officer Jones takes her in for protection, Reneè realizes too late: safety is an illusion when you come face to face with the devil himself, Mr. Carlisle. Police protection is like a child's game to him. Now, trapped in a web of corruption, betrayal (from her aunt, mostly) and manipulation, Reneè must outrun Carlisle's empire. The world she knew has fallen away, leaving her isolated in a dangerous game where the rules are his alone. Because the vines of his influence are everywhere-some might be in the judge's gavel, the neighbor's smile, even the hands that promise to protect her. He is a master manipulator, pulling strings that control her fate and her heart. And the deeper she fights, the tighter they coil. But when the vines start growing inside her mind, who's really trapped? Is it her, bound by his obsessive world, or is it him, tethered by a desire he never saw coming? The pictures that you'll find in here aren't mine. The credits belong to their rightful owners.

At least it was until aspiring detective George Reynolds came lucid from another blackout. Blood pools tantalisingly across the floor and there's two bullet holes in the wall. His best friend, officer Chris Wells is dead and George finds himself with the body and no memory of how. Only a tape recorder and a locker key for a clue. It's a dangerous game, from a lifetime of planning, rigged to make George look guilty and force him to remember what he really is and what he went through as a child. A pure born werewolf. Kidnapped from his real family to be experimented on. George gets dangled on strings by the killer puppet master and taken on a haunting journey never to be forgotten again. Made to relive the past trauma of a tragic fire that took the lives of the family that tortured him. Bodies continue to fall, all framed to fit the murderous narrative of an elaborate plot for revenge. When he finally remembers, when he's finally broken, another unique side to George wakes. So does a dark new world from the shadows. George learns the painful truth, and none of it is good. Nobody saw the real killer coming or expected that it could be someone they trusted. It will take everything George has to save his friends, new and old. Nobody will be the same. Nor will their view of the world. Its rife with the supernatural. **** Cover made on Canva Pro.

It was euphoric, but it lasted only for a moment. Then the hunt to find another would begin. Stone Hoyt was assigned to the solve a string of child killings that everyone believed was the work of a serial killer on the loose. But Stone was more than a street cop and knew firsthand the work of the undead. His past experience and training would lead him to network the underground and invade the nests. Finding the vamp that decided children were acceptable targets. And when he did, there would be no hesitation in putting a stake though its heart and sending it back to hell where it belonged. Stone would gladly go there himself, as long as the vamp was with him. ****finished version of the Wattpad draft****
