Talia feels she doesn’t deserve Devin’s attention and that she’ll only end up disappointing them both. Her friend Mandy tries to convince her otherwise, yet she can’t shake the thought that it would be best for both of them if they never saw each other again. #webnovel #quote

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 07/06/2025

For me, "being a monster in the human world" is one of the most interesting themes in urban fantasy. After all, depending on species, each supernatural being experiences this phenomenon differently: they hide different traits, struggle with different psychological backgrounds and coping strategies.

Jev breaks down completely, losing control over their body, which begins to shift and change uncontrollably. Devin is the only one who knows who Jev really is and what they’re struggling with. He’s incapable of returning Jev’s feelings, he still tries to stay by their side and support them.

Alone in her room, Talia goes over her encounter with Devin again. She can’t even imagine how anyone could like her, and the memory of Devin’s kindness is starting to make her feel uncomfortable. So she convinces herself that it’s best to end whatever might be starting between them...

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 11/05/2025

Devin is used to draining others’ lives to stay alive. Working as an Eliminator makes the hunt before feeding easier—he handles his targets with cold routine. That’s why meeting Talia catches him off guard: not only her resemblance, but his own intense emotions and confusion upset him even more…

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 10/05/2025

After her first meeting with Devin, Talia’s mother tries to warn her – in her own way. Her words wound Talia deeply. Even so, deep down she also senses that something is wrong with Devin, but she tries to deny it and hide her feelings.

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 04/05/2025

Talia is terrified of riding a motorcycle and swears she’ll never get on one again, Devin changes her mind with a few kind words and gestures. She feels like someone truly cares about her—but when she shares her joy with her mother, she brings up things about Devin that she doesn’t want to hear…

021

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 27/04/2025

Devin has already experienced being buried alive once before — and it still haunts him.

022

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 26/04/2025

To gain Talia's trust, Devin gives her his own helmet. Meanwhile, he smiles innocently, expertly hiding the raging emotions and murderous intentions inside him. And Talia has no idea who (or what) Devin really is—or that when he says, “I don’t die easily,” he means it quite literally…

052

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 20/04/2025

Talia has no idea about the emotional change that has taken place in Devin, and she seizes every opportunity to spend more time with him — even agreeing to let him take her home, despite being very afraid of motorcycles. Perhaps not without reason… #webnovel #darkfiction

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 19/04/2025

Devin is not human—he grew up in another world, completely without any familial relationships. So when he meets Talia and realizes that siblings can sometimes resemble each other in behavior, personality, and even in physical traits, it hits him like a shock. #oc #webnovel #sketch

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 13/04/2025

When Devin meets Talia, the realization that the girl resembles him—both in her reactions and certain physical traits—terrifies and horrifies him. If you are interested in reading my novel “Being a Monster” 🔞, check out my website or Patreon in bio (read for free - 🇬🇧 🇭🇺 )

By seeing others’ auras, Devin easily navigates different kinds of relationships and emotional shifts, and he deliberately responds in ways that serve his own interests. #webnovel #sketch

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 06/04/2025

When Devin shows up in front of Talia’s school and she sees his expensive-looking motorcycle, the thought crosses her mind that something might be off about this librarian...

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 01/04/2025

In the past, I usually drew Jev as a man, even though they often take on a female form—particularly alongside Devin. As the Dragon of Transformation, no matter what shape they take, they can’t change the original colors (blue and white) of their dragon form. #characterart #watercolor #fantasy

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 31/03/2025

Devin's past pains and the feeling of emptiness are a constant state he tries to fight against, but they keep coming back. Although Jev is by his side, their relationship is complicated, full of inhibitions, racial prejudices, and a complete lack of personal space… #webnovel

Talia keeps brooding over what happened at home. In the solitude of her room, she feels even more ashamed of her own hopeless, intense emotions. However, no matter how hard she tries to push the new librarian out of her mind, he keeps slipping back into her thoughts over and over again. #webnovel

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 28/03/2025

As an energy vampire, Devin can see the auras of other humanoid beings, allowing him to determine their species as well as their mood and emotions. When he glimpses his own intense energy around Talia, even for a moment, he is thrown into confusion…

031

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 26/03/2025

For Devin, "family" is just a word whose dictionary meaning he knows, but he can't associate any emotions or experiences with it. To him, Talia is still just a stranger, a girl he must kill. However, there is something strange about her…

033

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 24/03/2025

Talia, due to the trauma she suffered at home, craves attention, care, and love. Because of this, she is deeply affected by Devin’s calm and kind demeanor, which makes her feel safe around him right away. She has no idea that he works at the library solely to get close to her and kill her…

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 16/03/2025

Talia is a teenage girl from an abusive family, struggling with deep-seated feelings of inferiority. This is one of the reasons she falls in love so easily—with anyone who shows her even a little attention or kindness... which fills her with shame, just like the intensity of her own emotions.

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 15/03/2025

For Alden, Devin—and their relationship—meant weakness, something he despised above all else. Yet, for his own safety, he had to take care of him… He had always had his own ways of keeping Devin by his side, ensuring his protection.

Devin grew up in another world under the guardianship of a ruthless dragon—he knows nothing about family bonds. If you are interested in reading my novel “Being a Monster” 🔞, check out my website or Patreon in bio (read for free - 🇬🇧 🇭🇺 ) #webnovel #thriller #fantasy #foundfamily

Since Devin mustn't grow wings in the human world, he rides a motorcycle whenever he can—whether it's for everyday errands, road trips, or tracking down and eliminating his targets…

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 04/03/2025

Talia struggles with learning difficulties, sometimes forgets to wash her hair, and wears her brother’s old, worn-out clothes. Her parents expect her to take better care of herself and get higher grades. Their impatience often turns into verbal abuse, which only causes pain and anxiety.

Talia's father suffers from severe depression, which makes him withdrawn and passive at times, yet at other moments, he turns aggressive. She misses the happier times, but nowadays, all she feels toward him is fear. Still, she tries to reach out to him… #webnovel #thriller

Talia tries to go about her daily life, but she starts noticing strange changes in herself. Her heart doesn’t ache when she runs in P.E. class, and the bruises from family conflicts heal faster than they should. A growing sense of dread settles over her—something abnormal is happening to her…

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 19/02/2025

Devin is the reincarnation of half the soul of the Dragon of Death, Alden. Over the years, they have both changed; Devin has become a ruthless predator, while Alden became a heart surgeon. They hate each other, but they have no choice but to tolerate it; if one of them dies, the other goes with him.

Being a Monster @beingamonster.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

Jev's reaction to Devin's assumption that they are jealous. For Devin, smoking is a way to imitate the sensation of soul-draining - a warm flow around his teeth. That’s why he occasionally lights up a cigarette, either to curb his hunger or simply to give himself pleasure in private moments...
