ATTENTION: This is the SECOND book of my Vampire's Pet series and cannot be read as a stand alone book. ~~~ I thought that my life had ended the day I got purchased by a blood thirsty monster. I thought that the rest of my life was going to be nothing but constant fear and suffering. But I couldn't have been more wrong. What I found was something much different. Something that I didn't even know I was looking for let alone wanted. What I found was a new beginning. A new beginning with the one I cared most for. ~~~ Cover by: @aculeasis

The world had gone to hell long ago, taken over by the vampire race. In order to keep some sort of peace in our land, the Vampire Lords made a consecutive agreement. The rich and powerful humans could survive just as they had been, untouched by the vampires save for the occasional blood collections, or so they thought In reality, we were all under their control. Castles spread out throughout our land, one landing in each city. Each castle varied in the number of vampires residing there, but all of them carried a Lord. The Lords were the ones in charge in every city, whether we liked it or not. The vampires often roam through the city, making sure that everyone was in order and no one stepped out of line. If you stepped out of line, you died, end of story. Even if the rich were still under their control, their lives were still better than the poor. The poorest lives held a much worse fate. The men were to be put to work as slaves, whether that meant serving a specific vampire, or just building their castles, they were slaves. The women were to be pets. Pets were the lowest rank you could have. They were forced into cages that were too small to stand in with collars around their necks. They spent their lives in pet shops, just waiting for the dreadful day that they'll be bought. They were treated like animals, trained into what their master wanted, and punished if they misbehaved. Those who were lucky enough to live through that, we're to be slaughtered for their blood at age twenty-five in an act to make sure that our population would stay steady. I was born into this world. Born into this world full of blood-sucking monsters. Except, I was one of the lucky ones. Was. It all ended for me when I was 12, when I was taken away from the last bit of hope and family that I had left. Ever since then, I've lived in a cage, just rotting away, waiting, dreading for the day that some monster would make me his. This is my life. I am a pet. ~~~ Cover by: @mshacake

THE STORY IS LEAVING PAID ON JULY 23RD, 2023 The hunter becomes the hunted! Twenty-four-year-old Anna Nightingale has a terrible secret, and it might just kill her. If only her family were in a safe business, like firefighting or skydiving, she might've had a better chance at survival. But no! Anna comes from a long line of vampire hunters, and when a night of clubbing ends up with her being killed and turned into a vampire, she must take off on a road trip across Canada with her sexy sire and his vampire pals before her family ends her life permanently. ----- For generations, the Nightingales have been the biggest threat to vampires, hunting them to near extinction. Anna spent her childhood training to fight bloodsuckers, but as the only Nightingale who wanted a sense of normalcy, Anna decided vampire hunting wasn't her calling. Instead, she enrolled in an MFA program with aspirations of becoming a novelist. One night at a club, Anna and her headstrong friend, Jess, meet four mysterious men. Anna suspects they might be vampires who are planning to kill Jess and tries to fend them off. Despite Anna's fighting prowess, she cannot fight four at once. They kill Jess, and Rhys, the vampire ringleader, ends up turning Anna into a bloodsucker. Now that they've killed a human, the vampires must flee the city to avoid the famed Nightingales. They take off on a road trip across Canada, staying one step ahead of the Nightingales while training Anna to protect herself against them. Anna tries to maintain her secrecy and sanity as they crisscross Canada, crashing with werewolves and witches along the way, while fighting her powerful attraction to Rhys. But Anna's biggest problem might not be her family. If her traveling companions find out she's a Nightingale, Anna's trip will hit a painful dead end.

Flying cars do not exist and much to everyone's disappointment, commercial air travel to the moon remains a dream. Ravaged by a nuclear war which nearly destroyed the planet, the human race is now struggling to return to some sense of of normalcy. Particularly since the war illuminated one truth which had been hidden in the shadows for centuries: the monsters from their childhood nightmares were real and seeking vengeance. Witches. Vampires. Werewolves. Fae. These four supernatural creatures became known as Others (other than human). Or, other than everything Ophelia "Phe" Macintyre had known about life. For Phe, life in Darwin Montana was painfully simple- a never ending cycle of boring tasks. That cycle, however, would be disrupted on her 16th birthday where she, like all teenagers now, must prove her humanity to the government by partaking in the "Process." "Can you pass the blood test?" "Would you be able to survive the Aptitude Trials?" "And who will you become once you've completed the Changing?" -------------- Highest Rankings: #11 in Paranormal #9 in Demons #3 in Witches #1 in Faeries Cover by: @YursaUsman95
