Death & Destiny

Carter

I couldn't remember the last time I'd craved the touch of a living person so badly. This woman was irresistible to me, and yet I couldn't allow myself to have her. Supernaturals like her didn't belong with a thing like me.

While I didn't take the souls of the dead to the afterlife or drag the evils of the world into Hell, I did something much worse. For her safety, it was paramount for me to stay away.

Then, her father came to me, demanding I bring her home. As a member of the vampire council, telling him to go shove it wasn't an option nor a war I wanted to wage. I had left that life long behind me.

Now, it's a race against time to retrieve the daughter he'd lost, to save her from a fate worse than death—I should know because that's what I was.

But this woman could break me, and I just might let her.

Tempest

I couldn't remember the last time I hadn't craved death so badly. A longing that seemed everlasting and never to be fulfilled.

When that fulfillment never came, I ran. I ran until I couldn't anymore and for me that was saying a lot-a vampire wasn't easily tired.

It was the wolf that had first called out to me from the darkness. Then, it was him—a monster.

The two of them instilled in me the will to live once again, but my heart wasn't sure where to go from there.

In a race against time, I was forced to come to terms with the past that rattled me and the demons I kept. When what's mine was threatened, would I be enough to wage the war that's brewing?
