After finding a few like-minded souls, he decides to investigate the inheritance of its traits and hires a young woman just desperate enough for the job.

Summary
I no longer claim to know why Victor said that I died that night. I believed once that I knew him, likely better than anyone in the world, but after that night we became strangers to each other in a way that we could not repair. Did he believe he was shielding his father and brother from a greater horror? Was it truly easier to face the notion of me dead, than me lost to him? Better a martyr, perhaps, than a saint defiled.

Summary
My creation was hideous. Lips, blackened and shriveled, a knotting scar across his cheek, dark veins visible through the grey, translucent skin – I brought a monster out of the grave. And his eyes. Watery and yellowed with death, welling with tears and staring straight through me, piercing me with their longing.

What would it be like to die here? What do you want to be when you rot? I want flowers seeping out of my jaw, snaking around my bones. I want something to grow out of me.

Summary
There are a few things that Carlos may have neglected to tell Cecil.
Like his last name.
Or how he hasn’t actually dated anyone since his junior year of high school.
Or that he’s a wizard of the White Council and the regional commander of Wardens in the western United States and not, in fact, a scientist.
You know. Minor details.

Summary
Callista Curnow is unremarkable. She's a twenty-something freelance tutor with no particularly glamorous clients, she lives by herself, and has only one living family member. But sometimes unremarkable is exactly what catches a person's attention. And Callista Curnow has caught the attention of a dangerous man - with uncertain motives.
Empress Jessamine Kaldwin was murdered nearly a year ago by her closest confidante, and nobody has seen her daughter since. But a girl needs a teacher, and Daud is nothing if not a thoughtful jailor.
