The Vampire King's Mate 63. Coming For You
IVORY POVMom did not ask me about the growl.She listened to the whole story in the kitchen, with her hands wrapped around a mug, her face as still as a lake. When I finished, she sat quiet for a long time. Then she stood, crossed the room, and hugged me so tightly my ribs creaked."It's coming," she whispered into my hair. "I can feel it. I told you your blood knows.""Mom, it scared me.""It should." She pulled back and cupped my face. "The first time always does. But you didn't run, Ivory. You stood there and you held your ground. That's how a wolf is born."She made me tea. She sat with me until the cup was empty. And when I finally went upstairs, the house was quiet and the moon was already climbing.I stood in my doorway for a while, listening to the wolves settle down for the night.Then I closed the door behind me and decided I would think about the growl tomorrow.A soft knock rattled my door before I'd even taken two steps. Lia's voice whispered through the wood, "Sweethear

DANIEL POVI followed my father's rules.I didn't drink. I didn't smoke. I ate three meals a day, even when the food tasted like paper, and I slept every night, even when the ceiling kept me company until four. I ran along the river at dawn, until my lungs burned. I went to the gym. I answered Blake's texts. I kept all of it going, mechanically, like a man winding a clock he didn't believe in.Because my father had said, keep your friends close, and for once, I decided to obey him.I was finishing my third set of pull-ups at the gym on Friday morning when I heard Blake's voice booming across the weights room."There he is! The ghost of the Connor mansion! You are harder to find than an eclipse Daniel."He came lumbering toward me with Gav in tow, both of them in ridiculous neon workout gear. Blake was carrying a laptop under one arm like a football. Gav had a coffee in each hand and an expression that said they were up to something."We need to show you something," Gav said."I am wor

IVORY POVTwelve days after Gabriel planted the roses, the cuttings put out their first two leaves.I knew because I checked every morning before dawn, on my way to the clearing, kneeling in the wet grass in the half dark just to see whether anything had changed. Two small, crumpled, bright green leaves, the size of a baby's fingernail. Gabriel had come out to check, too, and he had looked at them for a long time without saying anything. Then he had patted my shoulder so hard I almost fell into the flower bed.I took that as a good sign.My body was changing as well, in ways I didn't talk about. The three laps around the lake had turned into five, and I no longer threw up behind the pine tree. I could hold a plank for four minutes. I could hear Mom's footsteps from the porch before she opened the door. When I woke up at night, I sometimes found my hands curled into tight fists on the quilt, with the faint, half-moon marks of my nails pressed deep into my palms.Mom noticed. She never
The Vampire King's Mate 60. Yellow
IVORY POVIt took exactly one day.By the next afternoon, the rumor had run through the Academy like fire through dry grass. I knew the moment I walked through the gates. Conversations stopped. Heads turned. Two girls in the stairwell leaned together, whispering, and when they saw me they didn't even pretend to look away."...heard she was out there at midnight with Jude...""...of course she was. That's how they get in, the new ones...""...Rose's daughter. Like mother, like daughter..."My cheeks went hot. I climbed the stairs with my chin up and my eyes straight ahead, and every step felt like walking on glass.In the corridor outside Mr. Henshaw's class, somebody had scrawled on my locker in thick black marker. A single word, in large letters. I won't write it here. It was an ugly one. It was a word Stella would have used.I stood there and looked at it for a long time."Wow," said a voice behind me, bright and sugary. "Who would do something like that?"Evelyn stood with her frie
The Vampire King's Mate 59. Ice cold
DANIEL POVThe stranger took the leather armchair by the window without being asked. He moved like water, no wasted motion, no sound. His grey coat didn't wrinkle when he sat down.My father had not stood. He had not even looked surprised. And that was how I knew that whatever was about to happen in this room had been decided long before I knocked on the door."Sit down, Daniel," he said."I'd rather stand.""Then stand. But breathe. You are very pale."I pulled out the chair and sat.The man in the grey coat tilted his head. His eyes were a washed-out color somewhere between grey and green, and they were very patient. "You want to find a girl," he said, in that dry-leaf voice. "A girl whose mother took her somewhere and cut every thread behind them.""Yes.""Do you know how hard it is to hide a person in a world this size?""No.""Nearly impossible. Phones. Cameras. Cars. Credit cards." He smiled slightly. "Unless someone very careful, who has done it before, decides to do it properl
The Vampire King's Mate 58. Watching Us
IVORY POVMy ribs healed in two days, just like the nurse had said.I stood in front of the bathroom mirror that morning with my shirt pulled up, poking at my side. There was no bruise. No swelling. Not even a faint yellow shadow where something had cracked. I pressed my fingers against the spot and felt nothing but skin."That's not normal," I told my reflection.My reflection looked back at me with wide green eyes and didn't argue.That night, after Mom's second training session and dinner and a long, stiff hour of pretending to study, I couldn't sleep. The house creaked around me. The wolves were singing again on the ridge. At midnight I pulled on my hoodie, slid down the back stairs in my socks, and let myself out through the kitchen door.I wasn't going anywhere in particular. I just needed air.My feet took me to the training field anyway."You're late," said a voice out of the dark.I nearly screamed. Jude was sitting on top of one of the scarred wooden posts like a cat on a fe
The Vampire King's Mate 4. Lost it
IVORY’S POV "I don’t understand you," I said, my voice trembling, though I tried to sound firm. "And please stop pestering me. I’ve never wronged you." I turned on my heels, desperate to walk away before the lump in my throat betrayed me. I didn’t even make it three steps before pain exploded acro
The Vampire King's Mate 3. Caught
. IVORY POV There are moments when the world pauses for a second... where time stretches, warping around the confusion in your chest and the weight of someone else’s gaze. This was one of them. Daniel Connor. The name alone sent my nerves dancing, but the man himself? He was more of a contradict
The Vampire King's Mate 2. What!!
Ivory’s POV The moment he spoke, I felt my breath hitch. “Oh God…” I whispered internally, heart hammering against my ribs as if trying to claw its way out. He’d only asked for my name, but it felt like a gunshot in a silent room. Daniel Connor. The name alone struck fear in every soul on campus.
The Vampire King's Mate 1. Meeting him
Chapter One I couldn't sleep. No matter how many times I rolled over, tangled in my bedsheets, the restlessness wouldn’t let up. Something gnawed at my chest, something I couldn’t name. But maybe it had something to do with the fact that we were leaving. Leaving their town our town for a place
