MxMxFxMxM "It's okay to quit, mami." Elliot whispered in my ear. Shivers shot down my back as I felt him move around me. I stared ahead, my heart beating wildly. The feeling of wooden pole lightly grazing my back. "He's right, honey. You can, we won't be mad." Vincent said. My eyes shot to his from across the mat. He stood there with his hands behind his back. I growled softly. I quickly turned and went to grab the pole but was stopped short when my body was slammed to the ground. "Mmm. Our angry little baby is getting quite frustrated." Close to my face was Sammy smirking at me. He had my body trapped under his. I felt desire and anger boil in me. "You guys don't play fair." I said softly. Sammy chuckled while he was doing that, I shot my knee up and hit his stomach. He yelped out and I quickly shot up. "Ha! I won." I said while doing a little dance. I felt a little kiss on my neck then my arms were being drawn back behind me. My eyes drooped a little as they continued down my neck. "Good job, little one. But what's going to stop you from me?" 𒊹︎𒊹︎𒊹︎ Arabella Davis is a orphan who can't remember anything from the time she is 10.

"Are you sure you're one of the girls? You seem like a spy to me. Are you spy, Arabella?" My name rolled of his tongue perfectly and I stood completely still as he took another step closer to me. "You know, it's my job to eliminate spies." "Eliminate me huh? I'd like to see you try." I was surprised by my response, just as much as he was, and he raised one of his perfectly shaped eyebrows at me. "Is that a challenge? I like a challenge." *** I never wanted any of the lives set out for me. Unfortunately in the new world where the monarchy has taken over, there was never a choice for a girl like me. At 18, I'm forced to leave the academy. It's a horrible place where young girls are groomed to become the perfect wives, and yet it's the only home I've ever know . Now I'll either become a human incubator, breeding children for the kingdom, or sold at auction to a man who would make me his wife and slave. Little did I know I would become a chosen one. Forced to compete in the coming-of-age competition to win the heart of the Prince and the crown. All were terrible fates, but only one included him. ___________________________________________ - completed - Mature sexual content Cover credits go to Devilishwritings

Who Could Learn to Love a Beast? (ONC2025) by atlas_of_wonderland

**For the Open Novella Contest 2025!** "A tale as old as time..." When she receives a cryptic but urgent text message from her father, Isla Lamborne returns to her childhood home in Long Island to find her family in crisis: the family business is failing, her mother is suffering from early-onset Alzheimer's, and her father's normally lighthearted approach to life is threatening to crack under the strain. Several years ago, Ned Dunfee was rendered paralyzed from the waist down in a motorcycle accident that he barely survived. Given up on the prospect of ever having a normal life again, all while hiding his past under a lie, the last thing he expects is the bookish, smart-mouthed girl that comes crashing into it, quite literally. After a literal run-in at the family bookstore, at first Isla and Ned can't stand the sight of each other. She thinks he's grumpy and rude; he thinks she's clumsy and irritating. But one rainy afternoon, when she finds Ned caught in a sudden downpour, the sparks undeniably start flying. And they both realize that a second chance at life-together-is within their grasps. Finally. (Using ONC prompts 120, 134, and 135, with 120 being the main plot arc.)

The Yakuza's Daughter (Completed) by Vampire_Kie

Alkyrie Rave Stein has learned that in her line of work, attachments are dangerous. As a battle-hardened fighter with a past as guarded as her heart, she takes every mission in stride - until she's assigned to protect Eri Aisaka, the unpredictable daughter of a powerful Yakuza boss. Eri is headstrong, bold, and has little patience for bodyguards, especially one who challenges her every move. What starts as a job quickly becomes something far more dangerous. Eri's life is a minefield of secrets, betrayal, and family loyalty that runs as deep as her enemies' hatred. As Rave digs into the threats surrounding Eri, she's drawn closer to the young heiress, and her cool detachment begins to falter. Against the backdrop of a dangerous criminal underworld where alliances shift like shadows, Rave and Eri are forced into an uneasy partnership, one that blurs the line between duty and desire. But the deeper Rave goes, the clearer it becomes: Eri is more than just a charge. She is the key to a mystery Rave didn't expect - one that could shatter everything she thought she knew. In a world of dark loyalties and shifting power, can Rave protect Eri from both her enemies and herself? Two women bound by duty, caught between loyalty and longing. In the Yakuza's world, even love can be deadly. "I was given a task to protect her. She is my top priority. She is my mission. A world where I was just a bodyguard and she was the princess. She is the embodiment of complexity and most often in trouble. And then one day I find myself falling in love with her. A scenario that is forbidden between us. Because she was my mission and I am just her servant." -Rave ----------- So guys let's embark on another journey. Love, Khayze

Wrong Hero ┃ONC 2024 by Elixyzsss

[Featured ×6] ★ SHORT LISTED - OPEN NOVELLA CONTEST 2024ˎˊ˗ Yueting has always had a lousy life. She was already an adult. She used to study her ass off in school, yet she ended up on the streets, spending her money only on alcohol.

Yueting had obtained a strange necklace during her drunken stupor. Though it wasn't a normal necklace, but one that teleported her into other worlds to fulfil missions. For some reason, she keeps meeting that one person in each one. [20,000 - 30,000 words] A big thank you to @Blazebby06 for the amazing graphics!

Trigger by Intenndo

✎ "I could've killed you that night and I didn't. I had my gun to your head ready to drain the life from you, but I didn't." His eyes averted mine, and I saw an opening in them, something I wouldn't even have considered looking for if I was still overcome by anger. "Why didn't you?" I asked, watching him as he began to play with his sleeve cuffs in a way that I knew was unique to him. "Because I know what it's like to fight for something you love. Killing you would have just made me no different than another monster who lost themselves in the fight." He continued, "And I saw something in you I haven't seen in myself in a while- fire." ✎ Two unlikely allies ─ a fiery, hot-headed spy and a slick, calculating conman ─ are forced to team up to track down a dangerous criminal and uncover why sensitive information is being leaked. But as their pursuit pulls them deeper into a web of betrayal and deception, they discover that the whistleblower is just the beginning. Hidden in the shadows lies a not-so-human world-and with it, a truth neither of them is prepared to face. Along the way, their undeniable (yet endlessly denied) attraction threatens to ignite, even as the world around them begins to unravel.

Roses for Rachel by Shelby_Painter

I was sure the worst thing to ever happen to me would be being kidnapped, and sure, that was pretty bad. However, what was worse was being kidnapped, held captive for years, and then being auctioned off to the highest bidder. I thought maybe I had caught a little break when I found out that me and five other girls were being sold to royalty, but I should have known something about that wasn't right either. Under the cover of eternal darkness, and deep beneath the ground, was a whole world I never even dreamed existed in my wildest dreams. It was a world that promised to be more than anything I could imagine. The people who bought us told us we would have the luxurious life of a princess, but there were only two catches... 1. We would be competing against each other for the affection of the Prince who would change our whole lives by picking one of us to rule at his side. 2. That prince just happened to be a vampire.

"Would you mind if I asked for your assistance?" She looked up from the ground to meet his eyes that were already on her, " Not at all, what can I help you with?" "Candy." "Candy?" He squinted his eyes, "Yes, Candy," She couldn't help but giggle at his actions, "What do you recommend?" Y/n's eyes drift to all the sweets, "Have you tried Pocky?" "I have not." "I'm pretty sure you'll love it." she reassured "How sure are you?" the detective was just playing with her, not expecting an answer. "Like 89%" she nodded. So different but yet so similar L thought. ================ Y/n Kitamura has a messy past and present which prevents her from being happy but what if she were to find something else that'd make her smile...like the world's greatest detective?
