“Soon. I just need to give everyone the best possible opportunity.” She glanced to the side, seeing Javed frown.
“Let it go.” He indicated his agreement to the warrior. She tried to shift her hands but was startled to realize that no matter how much she might want to let it go, she couldn’t.
“I... I... Can’t.” For the first time since her mad dash to the stone, panic set in. Perhaps it had been more than she could manage. Maybe she should have thought this through a little better, before rushing off tonight.
“Celina? You have to let go now. There are others here.” His demand cut through her.
“It won’t let me.” She glimpsed at the incredulous expression on his face, her stomach curled. “I’m stuck and it won’t let me go.”

After years of struggling alone, Celina – a witchling of immense power – must find her place in the world of vampires. But while Javed is building a new nest – the first new one in a century – and struggling to overcome his own demons, an ancient evil stirs. Now with Celina in danger, time running out and the demands of a fledgling nest, can their love possibly overcome every obstacle? |
