Glenn G Bartle Library

16 year old Scarlet Paine struggles to understand what’s happening to her, as she wakes and realizes she’s becoming a vampire. Alienated from her parents and her friends, the only person she has left to turn to is Sage, the mysterious boy who has quickly become the love of her life. Yet Sage, whose house she finds boarded up, is nowhere to be found.

Scarlet, alone in the world, with nowhere left to turn, seeks out her friends and tries to reconcile with them. All seems to be patched up when they invite her to join them on a trip to an abandoned island in the Hudson—but as things get out of hand and Scarlet’s true powers are revealed, who her friends and enemies are becomes more confusing than ever.

Blake, still interested in her, tries to make amends. He seems sincere, and Scarlet is confused as she has to grapple with whether to be with Blake or to wait for Sage, who is nowhere to be found.

When Scarlet finally finds Sage, they have the most romantic time of her life; yet it is tinged with tragedy, as Sage is dying, with but a few days left to live.

Kyle, meanwhile, turned into the only other vampire left in the world, is on a murderous rampage, seeking Scarlet; Caitlin and Caleb consult with Aiden, and they each embark on different missions—Caleb to stop and kill Kyle, and Caitlin, to the famed Yale University library, to research the ancient relic rumored to both cure and kill vampires for all time.

It is a race against time, and it may be too late. Scarlet is changing rapidly, barely able to control what she’s becoming, and Sage is dying with each passing moment. As the book culminates in an action-packed, shocking twist, Scarlet will be left with a monumental choice—one that will change the world forever. Will Scarlet make the ultimate sacrifice to save Sage’s life? Will she risk everything she has for love?

"What are you doing, Ms. Samantha?" Jack angrily said after seeing the employee chit-chatting with some random guys while the other girls are waiting for her service.  The surprised look was evident to the librarian when she sees her boss in front of them. She also stood up in her seat, and she gave a quick bow to her boss. But Jack ignored it. He walks in the direction of a librarian. "This is not an hour of flirting. I'm not paying you a lot of money only to flirt. But, if you like to seduce some guys. So, why don’t we make it intense for the men you’re flirting with? Hmm?" He smirks at his librarian, whose name is Samantha. "S-Sir…I-I'm sorry…I-I will never do…i-it…a-again…j-just please…s-spare my life." "Oh, sweetie, I'm not going to kill you. But, I'll help you to seduce a guy, you want?"The woman quickly shook her head many times because of fear. "N-no…no… si-sir please…no!" But she can't stop her boss from ripping her uniform. When Jack finished tearing off her upper and lower uniform, he even grinned demonically. "You're welcome, sweetie, don't cry. I'm just helping." Jack Krean Tomizara Miller is known as heartless and ruthless. He doesn't even care about people who beg him or asking him to forgive them for what they've done. He humiliated many employees.  So it isn't easy to get a new one on his property, even how significant the income is because they knew him as a demon. But a woman will give a try to apply as a new librarian. She's Linzi Mikaele Franzie.  What will be her fate after entering the famous library and meeting the Notorious Mafia King, Jack?

Após a morte dos meus pais, fui inesperadamente adotada pelo Alfa e pela Luna, tornando-me a única humana no território dos lobisomens. Por vinte anos, os herdeiros gêmeos Alfa me cobriram de afeto. Seus cuidados e favoritismo deixavam todos ao redor enlouquecidamente invejosos. Mas, quando quis escolher um companheiro, ambos me rejeitaram. Kane disse: — Quero me concentrar em expandir nosso território de lobos primeiro. Não quero encontrar uma companheira tão cedo. Liam disse: — Humanos não suportam a linhagem Alfa. No dia seguinte, no meu banquete de aniversário, ambos propuseram-se simultaneamente à filha da criada Ômega. Para agradá-la, me forçaram a beber a bebida "Chama de Sangue", que um humano jamais poderia suportar. Fiquei completamente arrasada. No dia em que recebi alta do hospital, liguei para minha mãe adotiva: — Estou disposta a me casar com o Rei Vampiro.

— Oh oui… là… encore… plus fort ! Des gémissements saccadés résonnaient à travers les murs, se faufilant comme un poison jusqu’aux oreilles d’Élodie. Son souffle se coupa. Son cœur se serra dans sa poitrine. Non… pas ça… Ses doigts tremblants poussèrent doucement la porte entrouverte de la chambre d’amis. Et ce qu’elle vit lui coupa les jambes. Son fiancé, Victor, nu, en sueur, plaquait le corps offert d’Isabelle contre le matelas, ses hanches martelant son bassin avec une brutalité affolante. — Putain, tu es tellement bonne… grogna-t-il en agrippant les cheveux de sa sœur. Élodie porta une main à sa bouche pour étouffer un cri. Sa grande sœur. Son repère. Son alliée de toujours. Et là, sous ses yeux, elle lui volait l’homme qu’elle aimait.

Le jour du mariage, mes parents ont soudainement amené mon fiancé chez moi en disant que la mariée allait être changée. « Ta sœur a attrapé une maladie incurable, son seul souhait est d'épouser Théo Thomas. » « Tu es sa propre sœur, alors sois généreuse et aide-la. » Mon fiancé a aussi approuvé à côté : « Ne t'inquiète pas, je vais juste faire la cérémonie avec elle, et après sa mort, nous pourrons toujours aller enregistrer notre mariage. » Je n'étais pas d'accord, alors mes parents m'ont attachée. « Une fois le mariage terminé, nous te libérerons. » Mais peu après leur départ, un intrus m'a cruellement tuée. Quand ils ont enfin pensé à moi, ils n'ont trouvé que mon cadavre en décomposition.

La veille de mon mariage, j’ai découvert mon fiancé au lit avec ma cousine — et cette nuit-là, j’ai couché avec son patron ! Tout a commencé comme une journée ordinaire. Il était dix heures du soir, et je me rendais discrètement dans notre maison pour récupérer mon voile de mariée. Mais en passant devant la porte entrouverte de la chambre, des gémissements m’ont glacée. Poussée par une curiosité malsaine, j’ai ouvert la porte. L’horreur ! Ma cousine Courtney, nue, chevauchait Perry, mon fiancé. « Chéri, tu vas épouser Irène demain et tu couches encore avec moi, tu ne te sens pas coupable ? » « Coupable ? Pourquoi ? On le fait tous les jours. Elle ne saura rien. » Courtney se redresse, pointe la porte et me désigne, un sourire ironique sur les lèvres : « Chéri, ta fiancée est là. » Le choc. Perry, déstabilisé, panique, tandis que Courtney, souriante, se lève et me confie, sans gêne : « Trois ans qu’on est ensemble. » La trahison se dévoile sous mes yeux. L’inimaginable se confirme. Furieuse, je tente de gifler ma cousine, mais Perry, dans un élan de protection pour sa maîtresse, me repousse violemment au sol. La haine m'envahit. Je hurle : « Perry… je te hais ! » Brisée, je m’enfuis, mon cœur éclaté. Ce soir-là, tout s’effondre. Au bar, l’alcool m’étouffe alors que je me noie dans ma souffrance. Un regard froid me capte alors. Nathan, le patron de Perry. Il est là, solitaire, au comptoir. L’alcool me rend audacieuse. Je m’approche de lui, le cœur lourd, et murmure : « Passe la nuit avec moi. » Lui, choqué mais intrigué, me répond : « Quoi ? » Je le provoque : « Ou bien… tu ne peux pas ? » Un défi. Il ne supporte pas qu’on le traite de faible. En un instant, son regard se glace et il me dit : « J’espère que tu ne regretteras pas. »
