In a ghost town where cornfields outnumber people, Lieutenant Gianna Park arrests the new arrival, Nicolae Badea, for biting her on their first date.
When bodies begin to surface-young men found mummified, bitten, and strangled-Gianna suspects the man she once handcuffed. Yet the evidence refuses to align. The wounds are wrong. The hunger is too controlled.
Eighteen years ago, a boy was killed and forgotten. Now the dead are returning the same way.
As Gianna uncovers a hidden world of vampires who police their own kind, she learns that monsters are not defined by blood, but by what they choose to feed on.
Nicolae Badea insists it was never desire that restrained him. It was faith. He survives by restraint, faith, and silence. The killer survives by power. Only one of them hunts humans.
The Coffin of Nicolae is a gothic crime novel about addiction, faith, romance, and the violence we excuse when it wears a human face. It asks what justice means when the law has no language for the truth.
And what waits inside Nicolae's coffin.

❝She kills without second thought.❞ • Micajah's PoV: "Ah!" I shout out in pain, unable to hold it in any longer. I clutch my hand to my injured leg and cry out desperately when another blow is landed to my other leg. Tears of pain gather in the corners of my eyes, and I curl into a ball of humiliation, trying to shield myself from the bullies. "You worthless piece of shit," He says menacingly, his muddy brown eyes set in a hard glare aimed at me. I flinch when I see Chance pulling back his fist, raising my arms in defense. But to my utter surprise, the blow never comes. Instead, a sickening 'crunch' resonates through the hallway, surprising me. I tentatively open my eyes once again, cautiously peeking from behind raised arms. What- or more correctly who I see takes my breath away, every fiber of my being stirring at the incandescent sight. There, standing there like an avenging angel over the groaning body of Chance in the floor is a girl. But 'girl' would be too simple of a word to describe her. Her red hair flows down in luscious curls, framing her heart-shaped face, which is set in a furious scowl. Her feline eyes are a stormy grey, the electricity in them, static. Her sharp, straight nose accenting her full pink lips that are shaped like a cupid's bow with such a perfection, giving her an ethereal look. No, the person before me is not a girl. She's a Goddess. The jocks bow their heads in submission, murmurs of "Alpha," passing around the group. My Wolf gets agitated and keeps on saying something but I ignore his persistent calls, as my fogged brain is unable to register anything except the exotic beauty standing before me. Her steel grey eyes roam around the circle in one swift movement before they settle on me, darkening, yet instantly softening at the same time. Finally, her pink lips part to let one word escape them, the one word that changes my life. "Mine," • Completed ✔️ MICAJAH IS A GUY's NAME #5 in WEREWOLF #1 in TEEN FICTIONConcluida
Temper, Temper.
(Completely Re-Mastered) Everyone underestimates Kai Wolf-and that's their first mistake. At just 4'9", she's easy to overlook. Easy to dismiss. Easy to regret. Because Kai isn't just small-she's sharp-tongued, hot-tempered, and more than capable of taking down anyone who thinks they can push her around. She's spent her whole life proving people wrong, and so far, no one has been able to match her fire. Until him. Ashor Blair rules the town without question. He's untouchable, unchallenged-the kind of man no one dares cross. At least, not until Kai shows up and bulldozes straight into his world. From the moment they meet, sparks fly-and not the soft, romantic kind. They clash. They argue. They drive each other insane. Neither willing to back down. Neither used to losing. But while Kai thinks she's finally found someone worthy of the fight, Ashor knows something she doesn't. A secret that changes everything. Because whether she accepts it or not... Kai Wolf is his mate.
