Here's a short story that I hope you enjoy.

BANG! BANG!

Two shots rang out into the cold still air. The narrow city street was dark, only the street lamp on the corner shined. The road was damp from the rain that had just fallen. The buildings were slim and tightly packed together. Only a few were dimly lit above.All Rights Reserved

Unlikely Lovers | Rafael Barba by BarbieSVU

"Instead, he found himself on the floor, the sidewalk. A loud honk and probably some cursing at the distance. He didn't even notice when or why he started walking. His vision started to clear and he saw three shining little lights. Purple, blue and green. Oh, and also a face. It was a young woman, with a piercing on her nose and some streaks of hair painted in blue. She looked worried but he couldn't figure out what was going on. Then he remembered: a pull, a honk and him on the street." In which two very much different souls, find each other despite all odds.

U can't save me by briellepuleo

It's a normal day at the precinct, when a young girl came walking in. She was surely assaulted, she was bleeding, her clothes where ripped, and she was limping. Nobody saw her. She walked up to one of the detectives and tapped on his back. "He told me to give this to a SVU detective" she uttered. The detective turned around. "somebody call a bus!" He screamed. This got everybody's attention. She had a note in her hand. She went to hand it to him when she passed out.

Unintentional Passion by PlayNmyCurlz

Geovanni Have you ever gotten that feeling that somebody was watching you? And that person who was watching you wasn't normal. I have felt that way all of my life; but then again I felt as if I went missing nobody would even notice or care I was gone. I am 23 and just graduated from college. I was there an extra year because I had to take care of my family. I had to transfer back into the city and pick up the extra work because my mom died, and my dad became addicted to anything that would numb his pain. My little sister and brother would be lost without me here. But now I could care less. A cold breeze blew through my window waking me up from my thoughts. I looked over in the corner and saw that nothing was there. It was odd because I felt like someone well more like something was there. It had to be my imagination getting the best of me. I laid back in my bed and closed my eyes. Then all of a sudden I got the feeling I wasn't alone. But the really strange thing is that even if there was someone in here with me I felt safe. Jordan. I watched her as she slept. In fact I have been watching her since she was born. I have waited half a century to find that one person. I think I have finally settled on her. She was my choice. I know. After being in as many relationships as I have you know things. I felt my fangs tingle. Her blood smelled so sweet. Her heartbeat was steady and strong. I took my tongue and ran it across my fang. The temptation to indulge in her red liquid was far too strong. I let out a low growl and jumped out her window. I was ready for a hunt. "Did you see her Jordan?" "Yes, and tomorrow night you will turn her," "Why do I have to turn her?" "Ezra, you know once you turn them, they hate you," "I didn't hate pops," "You wanted to join though," "True, but first see if she wants to be turn before you jump to conclusions," I nodded my head, before me and Ezra took off to find some fresh blood for the night.

Between The Walls by She-stay-lit

"It was supposed to be a fun week away at this luxury manor, but turns out to be a death trap for me and my friends. There was someone between the walls that knew the building very well and they wanted us all dead..." Violence and expletives. Use of gun and mentions of blood. Just a short story with short chapters, read it or not😏

The Men Next Door by wildfirehoney

✅ Complete ✅ When Campbell Kramer accepted a job offer in Manhattan, she never could've imagined what the city had in store for her. Namely, two handsome men who live on either side of her new apartment. One is older, one is younger. One is introverted, one is extroverted. One is serious, one is playful. Both of them want her attention. What could go wrong? ☲☲☲☲☲ ☆Brooks☆ My neighbor was the one to close the distance between us. She did it quickly--like she was scared the moment would pass away forever if she let another millisecond go by--and I rested my hand on the side of her face to steady her. Something about my touch must have given her courage. ♡Campbell♡ The men finally greeted each other while I snipped the green, woody stems and plopped them into the tallest mug I owned. Their sentences were short and awkward, and as I rearranged the blooms for the umpteenth time, the realization that they'd told each other what happened hit me like a south-bound train. I don't know why I didn't expect that. They were best friends, after all. I was just the girl next door. They had no loyalty to me, no reason to keep our time together a secret. ☆Luca☆ Her lips met mine slowly, softly, hesitantly--like she wasn't so sure kissing her neighbor was the best idea--and I responded just as delicately. But when her hand made its way into the back of my hair, our bodies melded together like a lust-struck alloy. And the only hope of separating us was to add more heat. ☲☲☲☲☲ Featured by: 📙 @Wattpad • Love Triangles 💘😈 (July 2025) • Spicy Summer Reads (July 2024) • Endless Reading Mode 🧡 (Jan 2024) • Summer in the City 🥵 (June 2023) 📕 @Romance • Love Triangle (April 2025) • New Adult (June 2024) 📘 @Ambassadors • Hot Encounters (Dec 2024) 📗 @ChickLit • Rom-Com (Oct 2025) • Ambassador's Picks (Jul 2025) Awards: 🥈 Romance runner-up (The Prime Awards 2023)

VINTAGE by paulroberts004

Ken looked around him. This town looked far better than the previous one and the people here looked less hostile, yet it was more notorious. Neon lights lit up the streets as everyone hurried back home. The cars here looked better, the houses were more erect and looked modest. As he went up the street, he saw a group of tough-looking men sitting and smoking in silence. Two of them carried knives. He silently walked past them. Let sleeping dogs lie. The people gave him soul piercing gazes. A group of girls were looking at him and talking excitedly among themselves. As he passed by them, they giggled and gave him flirty smiles. He walked past them. He badly needed a smoke. He felt in his pockets the cursed. He was out of cigarettes.

The Dark Side of the Moon by Moozelle

My stomach dropped to my shoes as we reached the door. It was closed, and at further inspection, locked. It probably locked upon closing, but I had no key or means of opening it. My plan had been thrown out the window, and now I was just as confused as the girl beside me. “What’s the matter?” she whispered. I dreaded answering her. My mouth opened and I began to form the words, but not before I was interrupted. A growl reverberated through the very air that surrounded us, a noise so deep and threatening that it paralyzed me for a few seconds. The girl next to me let out a squeal and I swung my head in the direction that it had come from. It was the light-less corner to our left, so pitch black that not even the walls were visible. Whatever the company’s squad was hunting was here, and it was angry. ~ In small town Banff, no one expected life to change from peacefully content. But when night falls, evil lurks in the shadows. Supernatural creatures hunted by trained organizations seek revenge, power and violence; and Florence Gray has just stumbled into the middle of it.
