The Immortal Quartet (First Draft Beta Reader Version)
Talented violinist Wren Cotter is scouted for a transfer from her university to an elite private academy. All seems good and well until she meets her fellow students. Vampires and magic? Such things may seem intimidating, yet Wren continues to stay true to herself and strive to become a renowned composer, doing everything in her power to ignore the fact that she now lives in a den of supernatural beings. Though as the days go by, she gets closer to those around her, eventually finding herself receiving the attention of four vampires who are inexplicably drawn to her. Content warnings: • respectful treatment of women and queer people; • positive depictions of polyamory and polifidelity; • consensual intimacy (trust me there are people out there that need this CW); • graphic sex scenes (straight, gay, threesome). Trigger warnings: • blood and vampiric shenanigans; • mentions of death and burning alive; • loss of parents and related grief; • dubcon (kinda? will need help figuring out if this is actually true or if i can remove this from the list). This is the first draft of the novel and is published on Wattpad for the sake of hopefully receiving feedback to improve the story.Complete
