(Partial Draft. Available until new ANE draft is complete) Kalen is dying and the odds that he will live are barely existent. Magic users are on the verge of being wiped out by an enemy they never saw coming: dragons. If only that was all Lana had to worry about. Andreas is being even more distant than before. No one in the house really seems to like her much, but at least she has found an ally in Roxi. Besides that, something is going on with Lana, something she cannot explain. Using her magic is leaving her feeling more tired than she knows she should, but she doesn't want to worry anyone by alerting them to it. When their search for a cure for Kalen leads to Mallory getting captured by Queen Elisa, Lana is the only one who is willing to find her. But she had no way of predicting the unexpected turn her rescue attempt would take. She now finds herself in greater danger than she has ever been in before, and from the last person she would have guessed. The stakes are higher, the tension more palpable. What do you do when you become your own worst enemy? Can Lana help save her friends, or will she end up getting herself hurt in the process? Some fires burn until even the embers are no more.

"What if my sins are all I've become? Will you still love me if the Andreas you once knew is too far gone to ever get back?" Lana had survived burning on the stake, but at what cost? Every time she closes her eyes, she revisits the horror of burning alive. Her trust is now called into question more so than ever before, and trusting anyone at this point doesn't seem like an option. But even while Andreas had let her die, she can't help her thoughts from drifting back to him. As she meets new faces and new challenges, Lana must learn to adapt to her new life. Nothing is ever going to be as simple as it had been when she was Lady Lana Eleanor, a name she has now renounced. Our pasts have a way of sticking of us like shadows, haunting us in even the brightest of moments. All we can do is learn to live with them.

**Completed but NOT edited. It's highly suggested not to read this book. I have yet to start the rewriting and editing process. This book has too many mistakes to even count at this time. I have much better books than this one which is why I must say looking back at this book is just embarrassing. I mean it's one of those 'this author seriously didn't know the difference between there, their, and they're back then?' Ew, I know. It's hard to read and the book is rushed. So if you do decide to continue on then read at your own risk and don't leave Rude comments because I did warn you that the book sucks, I don't need anyone to tell me what I already know.** ------- Lets start off with the basics. My name is Charlotte and I'm a Royal Pure Blood Vampire that's a Princess and next in line to be Queen. Pure Blood Vampires are stronger, faster, and more powerful, everything about them is better than other regular vampires. But when you mix blood of a pure blood vampire with Royal vampire blood then you are one of the most powerful Vampires in the world and that's exactly what Charlotte is. Her mother is a pure blood vampire and her father is royalty. There are only a few who are this lucky and are very wanted. Wanted dead. Charlotte doesn't tell anyone that she is a Vampire and refused to even show any signs she is one by using a little magic. She acts like a normal teenager at school with human friends and even a human boyfriend. Everything was going great until a group of Royal vampires join her school. Of course, humans don't know the existence of vampires so they have no worries. But Charlotte on the other hand has to worry about exposure of her secret. Especially because this Royal vampire is a future king. Join Charlotte on her little adventure with humanity and royal vampires. ----------- •Highest rating: #12 in Vampire (11/29/15)

**One can be evil, and still have a good heart, just as one can be good but still have a heart tainted by evil.** "There was an undeniable comfort and stability in a stable future, at having every detail of your life meticulously planned out. But even so, there was a part of me, an ever persistent part, that longed to be uncertain, for mystery. If only I had known what that uncertainty would cost me." Lana Eleanor is in trouble. After accidentally revealing her magic, her parents set off to the palace for her execution. In the kingdom of Eerea, there is no greater crime than magic. Betrayed by those closest to her, she tries to escape using her new abilities, only to find that they are now useless. When the notorious Andreas Scott Grigoli saves her, she must choose between two dangerous paths: go with a murderer, or stay and be killed. She chooses to go with him, but remains suspicious of his motives while fighting a strange attraction to the mysterious man. When she learns of a common enemy, she begins to trust him a little more. He begins to teach her magic, but each lesson drives a wedge between them. As new faces and dangers appear, it becomes clear that hiding for her life and trying to master her powers are simple compared to surviving Andreas' mercurial attitude. //special thanks to @ZaraHoffman for the blurb!//
