The night I was bullied and left to drown in a bathtub, Lucas pulled me from the edge of death.

I had believed no one could ever love me—except maybe Kayla, my best and only friend. The world had made sure I knew my place: an unwanted, overweight girl, unworthy of affection, let alone passion.

But then there was Lucas.

Godlike in his beauty, and he didn't just save my life—he gave me everything I’d ever ached for. A lavish home. Organic meals prepared just for me. The kind of care I’d only ever fantasized about.

So what if he isn’t human?
So what if his love comes with secrets?

I stopped caring the moment his hands first brushed the water from my lips.

The Plus - size Bride of Dr. Vampire

I stepped through the hospital’s main doors just as sunlight spilled through the long corridor windows, cutting the bland white hallway into patches of gold and shadow. The warmth should’ve felt comforting. It didn’t. Not when you were here to confirm whether a brawl had supernatural fingerprints.


A nurse glanced at me from behind the desk. I gave her the kind of polite smile that said, Don’t worry, I’m not the paperwork kind. My coat stayed buttoned, badge tucked. I wasn’t here on official PIRB duty.


I scanned the lobby with quick eyes. Nothing unusual. No sudden chills, no strange glows, no bodies twitching behind glass. But the hairs on the back of my neck hadn’t settled. That gut-level hum—the one that always showed up before trouble—hadn’t shut up since last night.
