"You're sure about this?" He says, one of his large hands wrapped around the back of my neck, the other around the front. With the grip becoming tighter each passing second, I know my final decision needs to be spoken soon.

Half of NYC was raging over the merge of two of the largest publicationcompanies in the country, finally ending their age long feud. The other half were vampires.
Torn between being happier about her engagement or the dress she recently bought for the party, Bria Logan couldn't have been homer ecstatic. She and her fiance, Emanuel Cabello, were easily the hottest couple in the entire city, faces plastered on every television screen and magazine cover. Everyone who was anyone was invited and excited to attend their engagement party at Club Veil.
Including Zayn Malik.
A member of the Council, the high and mighty league of vampires that ran the city had been rogue for years. It was the other members' decision that if he did not settle down with a long-term mate in one month, he would be killed, for he had no reason to continue living, to continue risking the discovery of his entire race.
What better mate than the most eligible bachelorette in all of NYC? One problem.
She's human.
