Blood and Brine

By REYNOLDS GRAY

Some myths should stay buried. Some monsters should never be found.

Na ru Veyral has always been an outsider. In his fog-choked coastal town, he is nothing more than a ghost bullied at school, ignored at home, and left to fade into the background. But when he stumbles upon Vaelora, a girl with haunting eyes and an unnatural hunger, everything changes. She isn't just different nor human.

Vaelora is a vampire, ancient and powerful, yet starving in the shadows of a dying world. She offers Na ru a choice: remain weak, forever prey to those who torment him, or step into the darkness and claim the power he's never had.

But monsters are not the only ones hunting in the night. A relentless vampire hunter closes in, determined to end Vaelora's existence no matter the cost. And Mat n, Na ru's sadistic tormentor, is preparing his most brutal attack yet. With danger tightening around him, Na ru must decide where he truly belongs.

If he chooses humanity, he may lose the only one who ever saw him. If he embraces the shadows, he may never return.

The tide is rising. The hunt has begun. And the line between man and monster is razor-thin.
