I try to keep myself away from him after he knocked the image of harsh reality into my head. But why do I feel such a strong pull toward him? I feel like a moth flying into the fire. This fire might change my life and everything Lorcan Judson: I despise humans - creatures with no morals. Yet, she is one of them: An annoyingly clingy, vampire-enthusiastic human.

Walang ibang taong naging sandigan si Sapphire mula pagkabata kundi ang kanyang Uncle Ares—ang lalaking kinupkop ng kanyang mga lolo’t lola bilang sariling anak. Tahimik, responsable, at palaging nariyan tuwing kailangan niya ng karamay. Sa tagal ng pagkakasama nila, hindi niya namalayang unti-unti na pala siyang naaakit sa misteryosong tikas nito. Kaya nang mawalan siya ng magulang sa London, agad siyang umuwi sa Pilipinas at nanirahan sa piling ng tanging taong pinaniniwalaan niyang tunay na ligtas siya... kahit pa ang puso niya ay nalilito. Bago pa man siya umalis ng London, pinangako niya sa sarili na ililibing na niya ang damdaming iyon. Hindi sila magkadugo, pero si Ares na lang ang natitirang pamilya niya. Pero paano kung malaman niyang matagal na rin pala siyang pinagnanasaan ng lalaking tinitingala niya? Can she hold on to her morals, or will she give in to the fire—and cross the line she swore never to touch?

Yes, I did it. I buried each piece of him where the city ends- the borders. I was careful. Careful enough that they'll never put him back together. Now I can finally sleep.

Making sure the last thing he saw was that I wasn't sorry.

My throat burned as he wrapped his hand around it, his grip was firm but not crushing—cold steel pressed against my neck, the knife. I gasped, my bag slipping from my shoulder. It hit the ground with a dull thud, spilling open, and my book tumbled out. He glanced down, bent, picked it up, and flipped it open. His eyes skimmed the page. Then his mouth curved into something that wasn’t quite a smile, a dark smirk, like he knew exactly what I had been reading. And worse, he saw the notes. My handwriting in the margins, messy lines of ink: God, I wish someone would ruin me like this. I shouldn’t like it, but I do. Imagine the knife on me instead. Heat exploded in my face. I wanted the ground to swallow me. His eyes lifted back to mine, and I couldn’t breathe. ***** I was just a college freshman, lost in dark romance novels and fantasies of forbidden love.
