Alexandria Tillie Bush, a 21-year-old college student, went home to visit her parents in Glenwood, New Mexico, on her summer break.

Twelve years ago, I left Thornchapel—and the two boys I gave my heart to—behind. And now I’ve returned, hopeful... and wary. Because it's so very easy to be drawn back into the world of the seductive and elegant Auden Guest... and into the world of his worst enemy, St. Sebastian Martinez. The beautiful and brooding St. Sebastian is as irresistible as he ever was, and Auden is just as handsome and arrogant, and the three of us can't seem to unknot ourselves from each other. From the hasty promise we three made all those years ago.

Michael wakes up to find himself completely alone in a dark forest, the corpse of a deer his only company. The dread in his heart tells him that something horrible has happened, but he can’t recall what. He doesn’t remember where he is, who he is, or even what he is. And to make the situation worse, he keeps hearing voices in his head, like whispers of long-lost memories haunting him.

Waking up to discover the apocalypse had begun, and to find that I was no longer human, was not how I thought my day would go. But then again, I supposed I was thankful to just have another day to begin with, considering I’d apparently been a mindless monster for the last several months. The city was a mess, with many buildings destroyed by massive black towers that rose into the sky like enormous thorns. And yet, despite all this, I was about to discover that the monsters and bizarre landscape weren’t the strangest things about the apocalypse.

The problem is, the object of his sudden infatuation isn’t exactly normal.

Meditation is one of the most popular forms of complimentary therapy for mental, emotional, and physical conditions on the planet. And when it comes to PTSD, its effectiveness is no different.

“Well that was fast.” Said Damian. Paul responded, “It didn’t take much tracking. An easy find for me and my pack. There are five male vampires and they’re down by coconut creek. Approximately six miles north from your place. They have set up a little camping area. What do you want to do? Set up a surprise attack?”

Damian shared Alyssa’s visions out loud. "Apparently, the vampire that we killed was from the Bodescu covenant. It turns out that they want revenge and to wipe my covenant out of existence. There is no telling how many are in their covenant.” Ariel was the first to speak. “Is there no one in control over the covenants? Someone who is the judge and jury? Someone who can stop this nonsense?”

Damian saw the vampire in charge right away, but he was completely surrounded by newborns, which were clearly out of control while looking for blood and their next victim. "We will have to wait for a moment that he’s alone, and it’ll only be for a split second," said Damian. "Whoever sees it first, go in for the kill." Hours had passed, and the newborns still made it impossible.

I used to be a computer programmer...I think. But then I woke up in a strange new world as a...god? Part of me thinks this is some ultra-realistic VR game, but things just seem and feel too real. Especially the three beautiful priestesses, who have traveled from afar just to worship and love me.

Damian was about to call it a day and end the hunt when he saw Ariel lock eyes on a rare predator...the werewolf. He shouted, "Ariel, No"! Simultaneously, Ariel was in mid-air and came to an immediate standstill when she heard a whimper sound followed by a voice "No, Stop! I’m Ashford”. Confused, Ariel looked to Damian for answers.

Two vampires mates were out on a rampage and had gotten the fever to kill humans whenever a new Half Vampire/Half Man was born.
