I never wanted to go to Mardi Gras. The wild parties, the chaos—none of it was for me. But my sister Raya lives for it, and spending time with her means everything. So, I went, determined to survive the madness for her sake.
Then I met him. A man so captivating it was impossible to look away. There was something dangerous about him, something eerily familiar, but I couldn’t place it. Not until the night that changed everything.
What started as a night of fun and celebration turned into a nightmare. Creatures that shouldn’t exist attacked us. The supernatural world isn’t real… at least, I thought it wasn’t. But now Raya is missing, and no one will believe me.
I know what I saw. I know she’s out there somewhere. But can I find her before it’s too late? And more terrifyingly—am I next?


Bloodborne Secrets

I jolt upright, gasping in air like I’ve been at the bottom of the ocean. My heart gallops a million miles a minute, and the firelight hurts my eyes. Squinting around the room, I realize I’m laid on the floor right where Annika put me.

“Um.” I swallow, blinking to get my wits together. “I… hang on.” Lifting my knees, I rock forward over them and put my hands over my face. My skin is cold to the touch. Like, dead body cold. A shiver rakes over me despite the room being warm.


It’s not like anything that scary even happened. Hell, whatever that faceless woman was didn’t spook me too badly. So, why is my body doing this?
