SHADOWS AND FIRST BLOOD : BOOK ONE
Some monsters are made. Others are loved into existence.
Three weeks.
That’s all it took for Silver’s life to collapse — for the hunt to begin, the blood to spill, and the shadows of New York to whisper her name.
Turned without warning and hunted by an Order that claims to protect humanity, Silver’s survival is a cruel miracle. She doesn’t just run — she fights, she bleeds, she bites back.
But monsters aren’t the only predators.
There’s Travis — a vampire whose laughter could calm a storm, and Matrix — a wolf whose control feels like worship until it starts to cage her.
Caught between ghosts, wolves, and hunters, Silver must decide which is worse: being hunted or being claimed.
This isn’t a romance.
It’s a reckoning wrapped in temptation, where love and danger share the same heartbeat.
