"Last Time I Dug My Own Grave, This Time I Dug One for You Too" Aurelia Vance was born with everything—beauty, grace, and the promise of a legacy. As the beloved only daughter of the prestigious Vance family, she was raised to inherit the estate and carry on the family name. Her life seemed perfect, until the day her father brought home an adopted daughter—Silea. At first, Aurelia welcomed Silea with kindness, never imagining that behind the sweet smiles hid envy and ambition. Slowly, Silea began taking everything Aurelia held dear—attention, affection, and finally, Owen Ashford, the man Aurelia was destined to marry. What began as a fairytale quickly twisted into a nightmare. Betrayed by her husband, pregnant and heartbroken, Aurelia watched helplessly as Silea deceived their father, stole the Vance estate, and then—pushed her off a cliff. But death wasn’t the end. Aurelia awakens on the morning of her 21st birthday—the day her world began to crumble. Armed with the knowledge of betrayal and the fire of vengeance, she vows to rewrite her fate. This time, Aurelia won't be the naive heiress led to ruin. This time, she’ll outwit Silea, expose Owen’s treachery, reclaim her legacy, and choose her own destiny—with Theo Knowles, the childhood friend who truly loved her all along. Power. Revenge. Redemption. This time, the grave isn’t for her. It’s for them.

She was backed up against the tree and I took a branch, breaking it in half to reveal a sharp end, and going straight for his neck. It might not do much, or at least that's what I thought, but it should be enough to get him away from her.To my surprise, he plummeted to the floor. I looked at Illyria and walked towards her like a predator. With my bloodied hands, not sure if it was mine or his blood, I put them on Illyria's collarbone while dragging it up to her neck and ending up in her face, painting it just like the red rose in her hand, while she looked at me with panic in her eyes.“Don't fear me, little rose. I won't hurt you, but next time you decide to run away, make sure you do it without anyone noticing. I have eyes everywhere” I said in a low growl, that sounded even more dangerous than what I usually sound. ~~~~~~Illyria Abbot was meant to choose a husband on her 21st birthday. When her mansion is attacked by rebellious vampires, she barely escapes with her life. Lost in the woods she’s found by Kieran Moore, a brute vampire who will make her life hard while falling in love with her. But there are secrets who will keep testing them and their love. Will they be able to overcome it, or will it be their doom? Author’s Note: This story contains Latin Language.
