Humanity (noun):The quality of being humane; benevolence.
Being human is hard. Pretending to be human is even harder.
Victoria Beckett is a 165 year old vampire, trying to fit the role of a 17 year old teenager. Her entire family are vampires - long story - who all make it look easy to act human and feel like humans do.
For the first time in a few decades, Tori decides to take the jump and let herself act human. Just this once. What she doesn't expect, is the overwhelming emotions that come from falling in love and making true friends.
After years of isolating herself, can Tori deal with the emotions attached to human life? Or will her humanity finally snap?

When a childhood friend shows up at his house with a strange girl who is bleeding black blood, he knows that he's getting into something he definitely shouldn't.

Bed of Lies
They broke her trust. They broke his mind. Now the past is back-and this time, it wants blood. Victoria learned early how to survive in silence. Grief became her shadow. Guilt, her constant companion. Because if she had died that night instead of her mother... maybe everything would have been different. But the past doesn't stay buried, and when it drags her back into a world she barely escaped, silence won't save her anymore. Xavier learned how to disappear behind scars, rage, and the monster his past made him. A man shaped by violence, and driven by retribution. Victoria was everything he should avoid- soft yet unyielding, broken but still standing. She had the kind of pain that mirrored his own. She saw too much, pushed too far and worst of all, she made him remember something he buried a long time ago. He hated it. Hated her. Because she made him feel. What exists between them isn't gentle. It isn't safe or healing. It destroys. And when the truth comes for them both, they'll have to decide: Run. Burn. Or destroy everything in their path.Complete
