[Excerpt]
Kai raises her chin.
"Have you ever loved me?"
Josephine removed his hands from her chin and looked straight at him.
"I regret being with you. I should have listened when everyone told me to distance myself from you, but I didn't," she said. "If I had known this was what was going to happen, I Shouldn't have fallen for you," she yelled.
"I regret ever knowing you; if I can turn back time, I wish I should not have met you," she said calmly.
Ari and Soren's adventures continue as Soren struggles with his new vampiric urges and a coven of witches attempts to recruit Ari for their own ends.
