Story Description:

Terrified she will harm her newly-adopted daughter in the throes of a PTSD flashback, Kymbria James travels to the far Northwood of Minnesota to work with a Native American healer. The windigo of tribal lore had awakened just days before Kymbria's arrival, perhaps drawn early into this forty-year cycle by the connection between them. All too soon Kymbria will uncover the reality of the fabled monster's existence and their shared past, risking all she gained in her fight to overcome her downslide into mental instability.

Silas McCoy is well aware of the new cycle of awakening. Indeed, he is in the Northwood at the agreement of Keoman Thunderwood, the Ojibway healer seeking to confront this cannibal windigo. The day he came home to his mountain cabin to find his wife and son taken by a different windigo, he vowed to find a way to eradicate the supposedly unstoppable monsters. Nothing but his own death will halt his quest for vengeance.

As the monster captures one after another tribal member and drags each off to its lair, Kymbria is finally forced into Silas's quest to learn how to destroy it. Even when she learns the truth her mother has kept hidden for forty years, she has no choice other than to continue. Somehow, even without Silas's assistance, she must confront both her emotional situation and the monster...if she can find the courage to do so.All Rights Reserved

FINAL GATE (#3 GHOST PORTAL series) by StephRose1201

If you're told you're the only one who can save the world, would you volunteer your life to do it? ***** All hell is breaking loose--literally. Long-lost realms that were sealed up are opening, and centuries-old creatures are escaping, all hungry to feed on humans and create worldwide chaos. It's Avery's fault, of course; but his sacrifices are too hard and his wounds too deep to put all the blame on him. But, as usual, the solution rests on his shoulders. Jessamine has her role to play, too. If you thought she was resting on her laurels, living a passive life in the demon realm--think again. She's about to encounter blasts from the past and learn more about this world than she ever thought she would. With both of them confined within their respective realms, they'll have to team up with foes and former lovers to protect Earth from the monsters seeking to invade and destroy it. But is there really a happy ending waiting for them if they succeed? Or will there always be the threat of other realms looming over their heads?

Protect by KristalKlearSky

What would you do to escape a terrible situation? How far would you go? Would you fight, or would you give up? Valeria wakes up in a strange place and realizes she has survived her worst nightmare. However, she isn't alone. She has a guardian angel watching over her. Someone who understands her and he helps her heal on her own terms. Ray doesn't expect anything in return, but as the father of one of Valeria's former students, it doesn't take long for her to become useful. Valeria soon finds herself walking a path she never knew she could and finds the strength to do so in unfamiliar territory. But when she starts putting the pieces together of Ray's life, she can't help but wonder if her saving grace is keeping her safe or making things worse. Can she escape the monster in her nightmares? Or will the past catch up to her? Can she find the courage to tell her side of the story? Can she find the courage to accept the one thing she always wanted...the one thing she never thought she could have...the one thing she would die to protect?

Slayer Traits First Year by KeraVG

"Wouldn't you kill her first if you had the chance?" "The Slayer only kills Monsters. If she kills me, then that means I'm a monster." There are monsters in the world, and some of us are unlucky enough to encounter them. Fortunately for the innocent, there are warriors made to fight the monsters. Two powerful Clans of Slayers - the Yalser Clan and the Salyeria Clan - and one ultimate being born to either Bloodline every generation: The Slayer. Kyria is not the Slayer, though. She is the Daughter of the newly united Slayer Family who has finally come of age to fulfil one of her life long dreams: to train at SMT Academy to become a powerful Slayer. However, her plans are altered when a Monster attacks the Slayer Family and changes her already chaotic life forever. Now Kyria has to keep herself safe from Voices that are trying to drive her crazy, the constant chase of Monsters thirsting for her Magic Blood and the Slayer hunting her down. Kyria knows that something is wrong with her, but to keep her Family safe, the little Slayer would do anything. Even become close to her enemy, the most powerful being in the Three Worlds... The Slayer. Blood may unite them, but does it bind them? [𝐌𝐀𝐉𝐎𝐑 𝐔𝐏𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐈𝐌𝐆 𝟏𝟒 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟐]

Red's Wolves by druidrose

Alera lost her mother early in life and was raised by a strict king for a father and the many nursemaids who crossed themselves before touching her. It wasn't until she was of marrying age that she learned why the people feared her. She was canny... like her forest mother. Canny and feared to be fae. The only person besides her father who didn't seem to fear her was the handsome stable boy. He knew what she was and didn't cross himself before letting his hands touch hers longer than needed for helping her to her mount. And on her 18th birthday, neither could deny the bond that dragged them together. But her father had her sold off to make an advantageous match with the neighboring king's sullen and cruel son. Even a kingdom over, the whispers of the canny princess the people feared as fae reached royal ears. But they thought to use her to their advantage...to put fear in their own people's hearts and make them bend the knee. Now with the kingdom at war with the prince she would have married, Alera must save the people who feared her from an unspeakable fate brought to their door by the sullen prince wielding a dark unknown power. -------------------- Cover by Tina Glasneck ©2022 M.Dalto Published to Wattpad 06.01.2022 Completed 03/30/2023

Grim Echoes by ryanahunter

Maeve's ability to touch others' souls can be heartbreaking and confusing, but when she connects with two murderers, it turns her world upside down. Are they still killers if they only kill monsters? What starts as a random attack on the street stopped by two strangers quickly escalates as Maeve discovers her attackers were demons. Thrusting her into their violent world, Maeve struggles to hold on to her humanity, making choices she never believed she would have to make. Disturbed but drawn to each of them. Will's bestial nature calls to her one moment and rejects her the next. While a powerful attachment to Ander's gentle soul comforts her, but every time they connect, she feels his darkness just below the surface. Will's entire life has been a war against monsters, alongside his best-friend Ander. Honor bound by duty, he is brutal, relentless, and uncompromising in his mission to protect the masses. He didn't understand how much his world would change after saving Maeve, or how she would shatter his convictions. Ander may have magical talents but in his mind, nothing will redeem him from the abomination he is. Bound by more than shed blood, Will, his adopted brother, and only friend. Together they seek and destroy aberrations that poison the world. Until Maeve touched his hand, there was nothing else but the mission. With her, Ander could see a different side of himself, a different life. This is a character driven story written from the 3 main characters POV's. It's a mature adult dark romance & contains dubious triggering situations that some might find offensive. If you want an instant, fearless heroine, Maeve won't be it. Her story is discovering who she is & what power love can bring versus kicking monsters asses. Power & money aren't the only things that make the world turn & those that wield the greatest power control destiny. If you're looking for heroes, Will & Ander are NOT it. If you're drawn to tortured villainous souls, you'll enjoy their saga.
