(NON- TEEN)* Crimsons survive off essence. They're a proud breed who coexist with Spirit Sifters, Witches and Humans, until their beast escapes. When Sofia meets Kai for the first time she is left wondering exactly what he is, for although he shares a similarity with the Crimson race, he is clearly different. Kai...well, his blood is toxic, and not only to Supernaturals but to Humans also. Always controlled through submission, the Guardians have managed to keep him a secret for centuries, but there is so much more to the innocent beast than what meets the eye. Kai needs answers, and having been bred from the tainted, he has no idea as to what he's capable of. Out in the world for the very first time, unsupervised and enjoying the taste of freedom, he learns the true meaning of hope, love and friendship. But when is anything ever that simple? With the Guardians trying to reel him in, what happens when people start dying... Having a reputation of being the deadliest thing alive, who's going to side with him? Tension runs high when loyalties shift, and when his world comes crashing down around him, Kai realizes that his mate is the only one to help him control his destructive self when he turns Silver...

Independent and strong-willed Della Tsang hadn't believed in ghosts until she saw her dead cousin darting into the shadows of an alley. She hadn't believed in vampires until in the dark of that same night she is turned into one. Introduced to a strange world of supernaturals, she struggles to accept this new reality. Unfortunately, the boy she loves senses something different about her and can't accept her. Should she follow her vampire cousin's lead-walk away from everything she's knows and loves-and fake her own death? Or should she set her pride aside and ask for help from the camp leader of Shadow Falls-a camp where supernaturals go to learn how to cope with their powers. Either way, her life as she knows it, will never be the same.

He lit his cigarette, I lit nothing. He drank alcohol, I drank water. He smirked, I smiled. He didn't love me, I didn't love him. He and I together wouldn't last a day. And then the game started... He said he found me intriguing, unique, and interesting because I didn't swoon over him. "You and me Grey, let's play a game. We'll date and in three months time I promise you will fall for me. When you fall in love with me between that time span, I win. If in any way you were to win I'll give up all the alcohol, cigarettes, and player ways." It was a game I wasn't willing to lose, but all games had accidents and consequences. It takes a broken heart to know how to break a heart.
