Lilian Quinn

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 hate feeling like a spy in my own space. Like, I hate it. 


But when I hear someone rustling around in my room on my way back from the library, I just stay in the hall and peek through a crack in the door. Shivering all over like I’m the one doing something wrong.


And look, it’s not like Azriel’s doing anything wrong, exactly. We’re all in this together, and I’m really working to keep it so there aren’t any secrets between us—apart from the big one, of course. There’s no getting around the burn in my chest seeing him alone in my room going through my things. 


Which is super fucking complicated. Because I love Az. Like, with my whole body and every inch of my soul. From the ends of my hair to the soles of my feet, vibrating, incandescent love. And yet…


It’s starting to get a little suffocating. His ferocious need to protect me from seemingly everything? It’s like I’m a bird in a cage. Every need met, adored in every way, but still locked the fuck up.
