FEATURED ON THE @WattpadVampires DARK ROMANCE READING LIST
Growing up, Anastasia Turgenev couldn't wait to awaken as a full vampire and join the night. But when the time comes to sink her fangs into her Affinity, can she resist her natural instincts...
Af•fin•i•ty /əˈfinədē/: noun. 1. The bloodlust felt by a vampire upon the age of awakening. 2. The person to whom the vampire feels the bloodlust for.
Seventeen-year-old Nastia flipped her strawberry-blonde hair over her shoulder and braced herself for the inevitable brain freeze. Across from her, Pam twisted her red hair into a messy bun and raised her milkshake like a weapon.

"Ready?" Pam asked.
Nastia clenched the straw between her teeth. "Prepare to die. Death by brain freeze."
Pam counted them down and they sucked up their milkshakes as fast as possible.
The cold slammed into Nastia's skull like a hammer. Strawberry-induced agony.
Perfect.
Pain made memories stronger. And if the pain was strong enough... maybe it would survive the wipe.
With a squeal, Pam threw her milkshake down on the ground in defeat and was up on her feet. Holding her temples, the girl paced back and forth. Nastia set down her own cup and laid back on the grass. Eyes closed, she waited for the pain to subside.

Her cold throat immediately burned, and her fangs extended, achingly. Her muscles coiled, every ounce of self restraint fighting all the thoughts of how to get her prey alone. In her mind, there was only him—and the fifty steps between them. The rising bloodlust was up to her ankles.
She swallowed hard and kept her lips pressed together mindful of her canines.
Just a little longer...
