Line 12:
** Hell, the werewolf and vampire aren't even competing. The werewolf is interested in an entirely different girl than the heroine.
* In ''[[Inuyasha]]'', [[Tsundere]] Kagome likes [[Inuyasha]] (who is a dog hanyou, which is similar to a werewolf), and he used to love Kikyo (Kagome's past life), who becomes essentially an undead soul - energy eater, and Koga, a wolf youkai, is in love with Kagome.
* In ''[[Rosario
* ''[[Princess Resurrection]]'' contains a distaff counterpart where a female werewolf Liza and a female vampire Reiri are both attracted to [[Unlucky Everydude]] human male.
** In actuality, neither sees him as a romantic interest, more as a plaything or underage drinking buddy. Now, how they, especially Reiri, view his mistress Hime on the other hand...
Line 23:
** Though on the other hand, Sookie {{spoiler|breaks up with/kills most of her past lovers before moving onto the next one, so it's not quite such a tangled mess. Not to mention, with Harris' habit of whacking off characters left and right, there likely soon won't be any characters left for Sookie to even have a relationship with, let alone have to worry about sparking rivalries.}}
* In the ''[[Discworld]]'' book ''Thud'', Angua the werewolf is in a relationship with Carrot, but Sally the vampire develops a crush on him and an intense rivalry develops between the girls, which is only intensified by instinctual [[Fur Against Fang]].
** Actually, the rivalry (and instinctual dislike) seems to be [[Imaginary Love Triangle|mostly in Angua's mind]]. Sally admits that she's attracted to Carrot, but knows that she doesn't really have a chance; [[My Sensors Indicate You Want to Tap That|his heart beat picks up whenever Angua is around]].
* Somewhat true in [http://www.patriciabriggs.com/ Patricia Briggs'] [[Mercedes Thompson]] books. The titular character has to choose between two werewolves: teenage crush Samuel and next-door-neighbor Adam, but she also has a rather close relationship with vampire Stefan, whose unrequited crush seems very likely to stay unrequited.
** In the fifth book she {{spoiler|finally chooses Adam,}} but this remains pretty central to the plot for most of the series. However, Stefan is only really a contender in his own mind, as Mercedes has plenty of good reasons to dislike vampires.
Line 41:
* At the center of a really [[Egregious]] episode of ''[[CSI]]''.
* ''[[The Vampire Diaries]]'' starts playing with it in the second season, with {{spoiler|[[Our Vampires Are Different|Caroline]] developing an intense friendship and bond with [[Our Werewolves Are Different|Tyler]] while still having some feelings for her ex-boyfriend [[Ordinary High School Student|Matt]]}}.
* The first series of ''[[True Blood]]'' comes close to being this, with a doggy shapeshifter instead the standard werewolf.
* ''House of Frankenstein 1997'' features vampire (the [[Big Bad]]), the [[Love Interest]] (a woman bitten by a werewolf) and the hero (the cop). Lampshaded when a monster expert mentions that vampires love lycanthropes; "Their own little animal -- you know what men are like."
Line 49:
* ''Love Drops''
* Averted in the [[Girls Love]] [[Visual Novel]] ''[[Akai Ito]]'', despite having premise of [[Lesbian Vampire]] [[Fur Against Fang|versus]] [[Beastess]] and each of them have a route. [[Multiple Endings|Due to the way the routes are written]], you can't [[Red String of Fate|connect to another character]] when you're already connected to someone.
* A weird version of this appears to be going on between Vulcanus/Valvatorez/Fenrich in ''[[Disgaea 4: A Promise Unforgotten]]''. Of note to what makes it weird: There's no human in the triangle (Vulcanus is an angel {{spoiler|though she was formerly a human}}), the ''vampire'' is at the center of the triangle, and both the vampire and the werewolf are [[Ho Yay|male]].
** There is, however, a Bad End where [[Token Human]] Fuka makes Valvatorez and Fenrich her harem. They're not happy with it, particularly since she makes them wear [[Dragged Into Drag|maid outfits]].
