The first month after vampires told us they were real wasn’t really much different than the months before it. I had shifts at work, friend crises that needed to be averted, and my love life was relatively nonexistent. From the outside, it probably looked like everything was the same as always, which would have been the second biggest lie on the planet. The biggest one was the lie our newly introduced neighbors were telling. According to every vampire that appeared in public, they didn’t eat people.

There might be a bridge in New York for sale if you believe it.

By the time you see a vampire coming for you, it’s probably too late. Even when they’re just a customer at the bar where you work, you might as well start figuring out what you’d like on your tombstone. Sure, vampires aren’t mindless beasts drawn to anything with a pulse any more than they are tragic figures struggling to adapt to changes the passage of time brings with it. Fiction can’t substitute for the real thing, where there is only one simple fact that matters. The obvious one. Vampires are dangerous.

Especially the ones with bright blue eyes, who learn your name by swiping your cell phone from your purse after they save you from another vampire trying to make you into a snack. All of it is a ploy, manipulation, for some reason that you just can’t figure out in the here and now. They can never seriously be interested in you. How would that work? After all, they’re the predator and you’re the prey.

If only these predators didn’t seem like they might have a few shreds of humanity, and hints of a good heart beneath all the grit that has settled on them over the years. If only a pair of blue eyes didn’t seem so safe, even knowing that they belong to a vampire. If only my dreams weren’t filled by memories of cool lips, safe arms, and more than a little thrill at being close to something so dangerous.

If only. Because then, maybe, all my friends would still be alive.

Human Status by DanickaCastro
1 part Complete
I live in a world where I am nameless. I live in a world where I do not matter except or unless I am owned by someone. I do not have rights, freedoms, joys, wishes, or aspirations. I am property. I was born and raised to belong to someone that will one day take me away like the fairy tale stories that I listened to everyday in the house I live in. I prayed every night that a handsome prince would come and take me to live in his castle just like in the books. I prayed that I would be a princess and have a kingdom just like in the books. But I was never told that the books were all lies. I was never told the true reason why I was a well sought after commodity. I was never told that I am not the only one like me. When I found out it was too late to save myself. To think and in less than 4 days I will be taken away from my current home and be in a home of my own. I sat on the simple wooden bed hoping that my owner was nice and kind. I hated to think about some of the stories that I heard about the other girls like me. I hated thinking about being exterminated because I made my owner unhappy. I thought to myself that I would try real hard to keep him happy. I remember the covenant of rules that would keep me and my owner happy. I would need to follow five rules. 1. Always obey my owner. 2. Always be available to my owner. 3. Never talk back. 4. Always agree with my owner. 5. I am not human so I cannot do human things. I wondered how pretty human women were. I was so nervous about my departure I nearly refused to leave my room. I could leave if there wasn’t anything wrong with me physically. I remember the den mother telling me not to do anything that would cause a refund or else I would be exterminated upon refund. My new owner had thirty days to return me. If he returned me and no one else was interested I would be exterminated. I would be killed because it would be thought that I was defective and no one would want a defective product.

"You are mine and belong to no one else" he sneered in my face "You're wrong" I mumbled turning my head away "You are my toy and I use you when I want" he smirked "But you-I-I'm your mate! You're supposed to love me and care for me not fuck around with other girls and have me whenever you want!" I screamed. His smirk fell and was replaced by a scowl. He lifted his hand and I flinched back awaiting the slap. But all I heard was a growl and a grunt of pain. I opened my eyes and there he was. The man I felt an indescribable connection to. It wasn't until he turned to me, his golden eyes meeting my teal ones that I realised what connection I held with him. Mate! My wolf howled Another one!? I thought to myself, gasping Serenity Harper is a werewolf, but she's not just any werewolf. She's the mate to the alpha of the second strongest pack in the world. She's an extremely rare silver wolf and she's super kind. But her life isn't perfect. It's far from it actually. Her pack hates her and has ever since the death of her whole family believing she is the cause towards it. Her own mate refuses to announce that she is his mate and even went through the trouble of ordering her to keep her mouth shut about it! But that's not even the worst of it. Her mate abuses and rapes her repeatedly. You would think after all her suffering she would crack and kill herself... and she was going to... until she meets the mysterious Xander. He's alpha to the strongest pack in the world and a good natured leader. What is the connection Serenity feels between the two. Its that of a mate bond only slightly stronger. So what happens when everything she ever knew was a lie and she finds love elsewhere. But not far after love do you find betrayals... {SEQUEL: The Beautiful Killer}

Have you ever thought that vampires existed? When you think of vampires, do garlic and stakes come to mind? Well, vampires do exist, but we are not what you think. Vampires aren't just blood-craving monsters who hunt humans; we are peaceful. We do have sharp fangs, that much is true, but we aren't allergic to garlic; in fact, some of us love it, myself included. We don't burst into flame, or melt in the sunlight, and we definitely do not sparkle in the sun either. As vampires, we live for thousands, and sometimes even hundreds of thousands of years (if a pesky, self-righteous human doesn't drive a stake into our heart first...). I am not young by vampire terms. New and young vampires, are "Newlings". Until a vampire is at least one hundred years old, they can't turn a human into a vampire, and are considered a Newling. But I'm what we call a "Maturling". Maturlings are at least a century old. In vampire years, I'm one hundred, on the dot. Though in human years, I'm about twenty-four. There is a third category of vampires called "Purelings". Purelings are vampires who have always been - well, vampires, - and have never had a single human in their family tree. Purelings, unlike all other vampires, can turn a human at any age. (Imagine being turned into a vampire by a teething toddler... yikes). Like with all cultures, there are things that are forbidden. For vampires, we are not allowed, by any means, to turn a human out of spite, or if they refuse to be one of us, but when feelings surface, they can change things forever...

*Short Story* It is difficult to stay with the people who look down at you like you are some kind of disease. It hurts when they don't want to acknowledge you for the good things you have done. It hurts when your family rejects you only because you are quiet and weak saying you are good for nothing. Annie Ryan was nothing but a quiet, innocent teenager waiting for her mate to save her from the dark hell she was living in. She had only one dream, she wanted to feel loved, she wanted someone to tell her that they care and would love her no matter what happens. But little did she know that she was just another unfortunate soul whose mate had different plans. Caden was an young alpha. He had everything but where everyone was eager to meet their mate, he wasn't. He had already given his position of alpha female to his girlfriend. But after she left him, he turned cold and ruthless. But when he met Annie, his mate, one thing was clear. He wanted nothing to do with her. He asked her to leave but when she declined, he paid her no attention like she never existed. Annie was broken. Her dream was just a dream. Every night she closed her eyes, she realized she was going to die alone with no one to care. She wanted to end her life but not before setting everything right, not before her destined alpha mate finds his happiness. Caden didn't know what he was missing until he lost it. Maybe that's how life works. Maybe that's why it is called cruel.

"Satan huh? Then Let me show you how he is like." In one swift movement he crashed his plum lips onto mine. I wanted to push him away but could not. I felt my knees buckled and my stomach churned. There was a strange sensation which was restraining me from pushing him away. He plunged his moist tongue inside my mouth exploring every inch of it. My heart was racing and my breaths were hot. I could not help but move in sync with his pace. It was as if it was a magnet pulling me more and more to him. ------- P.s : Please do not copy or take my ideas as they are purely original and my imaginations. Thank you. ♡Also!
