At least that's all he could remember. Officer Palmer sat beside him, taking notes of his words, but he didn't say much. He also saw a girl, maybe a woman, sitting on a chair beside his bed.

[Mature Content] ||| It wasn't supposed to happen. But it happened so naturally none of them could have even realized they were falling, they just did. All because of an email with a typo when they were young, which made them become pen pals in secret. Maybe it was the magic of never meeting in person, maybe it was the charm of the unknown, but they fell, and they fell hard through the years. But were they really strangers in real life as they believed while keeping their identities a secret? ||| It's a fast paced age gap romance, there will be smut, the initial stage of the story is focused on them being pen pals, each chapter is an email in the first part. So, they will be quick paced and short in the beginning, and when they meet in person it'll get longer. It won't be a long story, the romance when it happens physically, will be fast paced. English is not my first language. It's original by me.

We, Cryptids is an upcoming internet novel within the "monster hunting" genre. In a world where dangerous Cryptids as well as half human, half cryptid hybrids exist, conflict is sure to emerge. Hybrids and full-blooded monsters who possess supernatural abilities interact in often violent ways, whether it be for the sake of their agendas, or raw predatory instinct. A young man named Holden Cauthwell never knew his mother, and his father very rarely spoke of her. His entire life, he went unaware of his heritage as well as the dormant ability within him. It wasn't until he had a supernatural encounter and was subsequently saved by a mysterious individual that he was subjected to a brand new world. I would also like to mention that in this series, flashbacks and perspective shifts are decently common. The writing is also inspired by monster/demon hunting anime and manga, which does seep into the style at times. Just a heads up in case those aren't your style!
