Olivia Manning Net Worth Novels & Stories

> “Stay still, Little Thorn… I want to taste you slowly.” His voice was velvet and ruin. His mouth, a weapon. And I—fool that I was—leaned closer. Before death wore a suit and called itself a lover, I used to believe in beauty. Before the blood. Before the runes. Before I painted the image that killed my parents—I believed my art could save me. Now I know better. I was just weeks from graduating when the painting came to me like a fever. I didn’t choose it. I didn’t plan it. My hands moved, possessed, dragging symbols I’d never seen and a face I’d never forgotten—his. Eyes red as wine. A crown pierced with thorns. And a girl in the center… me. Offering herself. I signed it with a mark I didn’t recognize. I sold it to a stranger. And days later, my parents were dead—no wounds, no reason, just... gone. The police said stress. I say fate. Now I’m being hunted by a world I didn’t know existed. Vampires with ancient courts and older grudges. Symbols that whisper in my blood. And Lucien D’Aragon—the vampire who says I summoned him with my brushstroke. That I belong to him. He says I’m his prophecy. His ruin. His Little Thorn. But I’m not just prey. Something is waking in me. Something hungry. Something I was never meant to survive. If I give in, I lose everything. If I fight, I might finally learn the truth. About my art. About my bloodline. About what really happened that night. And why he keeps whispering that I was painted for ruin... but made for him.

Kaelis Vane was meant to be Luna. Instead, her mate dumped her in front of everyone, picked her cousin, and just watched while the Elders tossed her in a grave like she was nothing. They buried her alive. But you can’t keep a monster down forever. Kaelis crawled her way out, and she wasn’t the same woman anymore. Something old woke up inside her, a forbidden mark nobody’s seen in four centuries, power strong enough to make Alphas drop to their knees. Now, everyone’s whispering her name with fear. The Elders want her gone for good. The Alphas want to own her. And the three exiled brothers who pulled her back from the brink look at her like she’s about to unleash something wild. They’ve got it right. Kaelis isn't interested in revenge now. She wants to scorch the entire Alpha system to the ground. This time, nobody escapes the flames.
