I didn't even have time to turn. I plunged straight into the bone-deep cold of the water.

Of course Nireya knew the reason, even a child born yesterday would know the tale of the great war which passed on from generation. “They were prohibited because the five kingdoms decided it was best.” Nireya scraped the surface of the truth, she didn't want to be the one to tell Elira about the tragic event.

I changed quickly, folding my old dress and placing it neatly on a nearby chair. I crawled into the massive bed, feeling small in the sea of velvet and silk. The scent of fire still lingered faintly in my nose, but so did something else now his scent. Dark, crisp, and dangerous. I closed my eyes, trying to will myself to sleep. But the vision—the nightmare kept replaying in my head. The flames, the screams, the charred bodies. My hands covered in blood. The thought of my coven and family passed through my mind.

If she wanted to bring back the Precoza coven, then we would stand beside her every step of the fucking way. “What about the pack though?” Her voice was cautious but also curious. “They’ll always be my pack and my family. However, they can always find a great Beta who can help run this pack. Fate has deemed that my destiny is by your side. I believe that, IF it was something that you wanted to do, our current world could benefit greatly from the return of the Precoza way of life. Elle, Kade, Dante, and Ziyah have all infiltrated feeding rooms to save as many innocents as they could. Hundreds of people were freed that way. We even have some of them that live in this pack.”

The only place that has his heart is that mountain top where he stays. "I told you that we all are here because we are not accepted by our kind, but some of us got here because we've done something wrong."

A lot of us didn't survive, including our mother and when they were all gone, the ones that didn't get bitten, saw how strangely the ones turned after bitten behaved and they started to kill us. Jayde wasn't safe, but he was still in the process of turning. Then one night, we were attacked in

Maria, after long conversations with her husband and Miguel, let herself be persuaded and promised that she would find some way to contact Nadir, but the search was more difficult than she thought.

But one night the answer came to her by itself, in a dream in which Maria saw quite clearly the book she was looking for and a spell that would help her contact the c

Caitlin dove into the book, scanning through, turning the pages as fast as she could, looking for any mention of vampires, of how to heal or cure one, how to bring one back to normal life. As she began to read, she suddenly slowed down. She went back and read it again. Then again. Her heart started beating with hope. She could tell right away that this book was very different than the others. This, of all the books, felt the most real to her, the most scholarly, the most impartial. It wasn’t filled with hyperbole and myth and wild stories told by grandmothers. This one was written, paradoxically, by a bishop, in the 16th century. Also a doctor, he had seen dozens of inexplicable cases of cor
