A woman trapped by circumstance and a man weighed down by the pressure of his family fall in love. Froce finds a passionate painter, Kote, in Boston to secure his duty of gaining capital for his estate in disrepair. The day after their wedding, Kote's father mysteriously dies, revealing that he's left her nothing but her earned wages, the entire purpose of their unification in shambles. Yet love remains, despite Kote revealing her chronic illness and possible infertility to Froce upon this discovery, the two going forward to pursue their destiny together in England.



When they arrive back at the family estate, Kote is violently attacked by an unseen force. After recovering slowly and with Froce's gentle reassurance, the two attempt to make the crumbling estate their home while also taking care of their distraught tenants. 

Each night, Kote finds strange doors and rooms not seen during the day... ghosts and monsters lingering within the halls that wait till nightfall to terrorize her. Terrified that she is going mad, she stays quiet about her nightmares and midnight escapes into what she believes is the family estate absorbing the past family members of Froce's family. 



The sins of his past are now cursed onto her and Kote starts to question just how much she loved her husband and what she knew about him. With her chronic illness getting worse with each passing day, she has nowhere to go but the arms of her passionate husband each night, only to wake in a strange part of the estate the next morning. 



Will she find freedom and still keep the love she craves from her husband? Or is her demise fated to him, their destinies intertwined by the transgressions of ancestors generations prior?

Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.
Mistress of the Veil, de OdettaLaman
18 capítulos Em andamento Maduro
When the boundary between life and death thins, Daphne DeLaris finds herself trapped between two worlds. After a tragic car accident claims the life of her best friend, Daphne is haunted by Death's cold shadow. Night after night, she dreams of the Final Horseman, cloaked in darkness, silently reminding her that her fate is no longer her own. The Veil is no mere boundary-it is a living realm teeming with power, a dark reflection of both life and death. In this twilight world, cities rise and fall, while every shadow hides a secret. The dead, the damned, and the defiled are locked in a delicate struggle for control. At the center of it all stands Daphne, the Mistress of the Veil, bound by necromantic powers gifted to her by Death himself. Her task? To maintain balance in a realm ruled by chaos, betrayal, and ambition. But when political factions from the Order of the Coven and infernal forces vie for control over her prophecy, Daphne is thrusted into a complex web of deceit. She must navigate a precarious relationship with an ancient Vampyr Elder, a cunning Wizard with ties to the Coven, and a Devil's Disciple who rides at the edge of chaos. Together, they offer Daphne guidance-or so they claim-on how to harness her powers as Mistress of the Veil. But who among them truly seeks to help her, and who seeks to control the very realm she is meant to protect? As the Veil begins to bleed into the mortal world and time runs out, Daphne must confront not only Death but her own inner darkness. The greatest battle she will face is not with the forces that seek to rule the Veil, but with herself. Will Daphne embrace her destiny as the Mistress of the Veil, or will she succumb to the ever-growing shadows threatening to consume her-and the world as she knows it?
Fractured Legacy: Aicil Paranormal Files #1, de SkyeCallahan

"Callahan has combined two very intriguing characters with a great storyline to create a fast-paced supernatural tale." (Kimber Leigh Wheaton) Paranormal investigator, Kaylyn is thrilled with the opportunity to investigate the Teague Hotel-a beautiful historic building at the heart of Chatham, Ohio-with a not-so-beautiful past. But the conditions of her investigation aren't so ideal... First, she screws up on what should be a simple "pick-up" when she's sent to the local historical society to retrieve an occult object with unknown powers. Then, her new boss threatens to fire her on the spot, potentially ending the career she's dreamed about and worked for her whole life. Unfortunately, even after he relents and gives her one final chance to prove her worth to the organization, things continue to go wrong. Terribly wrong. Unexplainable dreams and blackouts... Fires... Unrelenting attacks against her mind, body, and soul, that may or may not be real. If Kaylyn stands any chance of defeating the powerful force waiting for her in the hotel, she'll first have to convince everyone around her that the threat isn't only in her head. And-possibly the harder task-face up to the fact that she needs to ask for help. "The ending scenes had me on the edge of my seat, behind a cushion hugging my dog." (Never judge a Book by its Movie) Book 1 in the Aicil Paranormal Files Join the members of Aicil, a centuries old organization dedicated to researching and fighting the forces that stalk humankind from just beyond the veil of darkness.

A Lord and Lace (Regency au! Prince Arthur x oc), de kfacecookie
1 capítulo Concluído
A wayward regency au one shot I wrote for fun, and because the concept wouldn't stop haunting my mind. ~ Trying to get back up after his ex-fiancé left him, Lord Arthur Pendragon relents to his friends and families idea of hosting a party in his family's estate. Although holding up hope for a new love that evening, he could not predict falling head over heel for a woman with haunted eyes, who secretly hides a crooked and wicked grin and a spark of intrigue unlike any he's glimpses before. After catching the sight of that side of her, and the way her families mistreatment severely dampens it, he finds himself sure of one thing. He's going to get her out their grasp, but doing so might be more tricky then first expected. Miss Harriet Frodesdotter is stuck in a hell of constantly being forced into a uncomfortable, lace covered, dress, into unbearably loud ballrooms, and dealing with condescending suitors that her controlling sister manages to steer towards her. The sudden approach by a Lord Pendragon does make her pause however, his sweet and concerned eyes appearing to be almost horrifyingly sincere as he offers to help her with her family issues. She doesn't trust him, he's not the first to claim to be her savour for purely selfish reasons, but something tells her that there's something more to him, and not in a bad way. ~ Content warning for ableism, family issues (including abuse, I don't perceive it as especially graphic, but it's there) and depictions of meltdowns.

Bite or Howl

I could feel its presence from behind me. I tried walking faster, but I could feel it slowly pacing near me. I turned around, expecting a dark, hideous vampire standing behind me, but to my surprise, there was none. I turn back around to start going back to the pack house where it's safe but I realise, he's right in front of me. My breath catches in my throat as I let out a gasp. "Never seen something so beautiful, I see?" He taunts. "Make one sound and I'll bite you right here, right now." ════ *.·:·. ☽ ✧ ✦ ✧ ☾ .·:·.* ════ Phoebe Wolf, a gorgeous werewolf and daughter of the Alpha.
