As I Lay Dying (The Lost King- Book 1)
Twilight Fanfiction.
I do not own Twilight or any of the characters apart from Matthias "Matt" Swan and William Cullen.
Seventeen-year-old Matthias "Matt" Swan is dying. Stage 4 thyroid cancer has metastasized to his lungs, and the clock is ticking. With no treatment left to try, he returns to the gray, rain-slicked town of Forks to live out what time he has left with his estranged father.
He expects silence. He expects fading. He does not expect William Cullen.
Cold as marble, impossibly beautiful, and utterly inhuman-William is no ordinary teenager. He is one of the most feared vampires alive, a predator who has walked the earth for centuries with blood on his hands and secrets in his eyes.
Matt should be terrified. William should stay away.
But something in Matt calls to him-not just the scent of dying blood, but something deeper. Something neither of them can name.
As Matt's body fails and William's thirst grows stronger, the line between life and death begins to blur. Because what scares them most isn't the end.
It's what they've started to feel.
