The Choice of the Forest

By Stephanie Smith

Sara has always felt different. When she starts college with her two best friends, Chloe and Kylie, she hopes the change of scenery will give her a sense of normalcy. But strange cravings, vivid dreams, and an unshakable feeling of otherness convince her that she might be a vampire. As she struggles to balance her classes, friendships, and her growing confusion about what she really is, two mysterious students-Kai and Gene, who happen to be inseparable-enter her life. Both are charming in their own way, and both seem to know more about her than they should.
Drawn to Kai's confidence and Gene's quiet intensity, Sara finds herself caught between them, believing that choosing one means giving up the other. Yet as her connection with both deepens, hidden truths begin to surface: her condition isn't what she thinks, and neither are the people around her. The strange pull she feels toward a nearby, enchanted forest begins to make sense when she discovers it was created by her bloodline-an ancient lineage bound to the forest's power.
What starts as a love triangle becomes a test of destiny. Sara must uncover the truth about her nature and her family's past before the power within the forest consumes her. In the end, her choice between Kai and Gene isn't simply about love, it's about who will share, and maybe survive, the legacy of her blood.
