A girl with cursed blood. 
A boy destined to drain her to death. 
A destiny made to be broken. 

He's after her. 

Just one bite,
One drop, 
One  dark power,
A curse of a lifetime.

Stella, the daughter of the stars, is a divinity doomed to die and be reborn every fifty years. Each time she is resurrected, she is sent back into human society to await her inevitable doom. On the other hand, as a young adult who has fallen in love with a shapeshifter by mistake, she begins to doubt the destinies and resist the destined path that has been set out for her. Can she protect the lives of the people she cares about from the world where kismet controls everyone's beginning and end when she can barely protect herself?

A Star's Destiny

I met Zeri and Faey in the yard outside the Provost Building. Oswin and Myra were contacted by the academy's provost earlier. It also included Isabel, Avi, and a juvenile hybrid named Samantha. 


"There has been a two-hour delay. We need to know what became of them." Impatiently, Faey asked. The rose behind him was almost completely sucked dry. It has created a hobby of carefully removing petals from flowers. 


Once upon a time, I could read sounds into the Provost Building; now, I can't listen to everyone's heart. 


"Perhaps Renate, the provost, has created a shield around the entire room, Zeri. That suggests they're discussing a sensitive topic and need to take extra safety measures, "I added. 


Perhaps," acknowledged Zeri, who appeared to have given up on trying to learn what was happening inside the structure. 


I heaved a sigh and mutter, "I hope sir Ferns is doing well." 


Together they drew air and whispered, "I hope so."
