**THE SCARS SERIES: BOOK FOUR**PLEASE NO EDITING OR CRITIQUING BECAUSE I DON'T CARE** Three long years have gone by since that nightmarish day where Chris put the barrel of a gun to his head and pulled the trigger. A technicality saved his life, but the damage had been done, and he slipped into a coma that has held him prisoner since the moment the bullet hit his skull. Samual Novak has fought back the pain and struggled to the best of his abilities to continue on with his life, but he put his existence on hold when Chris fell that day, and it seems as if that aching emptiness in his heart will remain forever when blue eyes finally open, only to whisper the words, "Who are you?" Three years have passed since the shuddering reality of Sebastian's preference. The young man, now seventeen, is hurting as he watches the bond between he and his brother fray because of stubbornness and guilt, unable to reach out because of the fear of being rejected. He is now well known by his rather odd group of companions as "Vampire", but he isn't the only one hiding a secret life. Brad Richardson was always the bully, the monster, the one that the rumors followed, but it isn't at all what everyone believes, as tiny hands cling to him, and his mind sinks into the cruel reality of his sins. He wants to atone, but not with his life, quite the opposite in fact, until someone unexpected enters his life with eyes of respect rather than resentment, changing his perspective completely.
