Nightshade Academy is going to burn, and it's all my fault.
Kian and I thought the witch called Helena would start the fire in his visions. We were wrong. It's Eduardo, my father, the vampire who made me and my twin, Archer, what we are.
Madeline, Nightshade's headmaster, saved me before Eduardo could torture me, but Archer wasn't so lucky. Eduardo knows Nightshade's location because he's been tracking Archer's every move. If Madeline hadn't taken pity on us, Nightshade would be safe.
But there's no time to dwell on what-ifs. We have to save everyone before it's too late.
Eduardo started all of this. Now we're going to finish it.

This episode concludes Nightshade Academy. Don’t miss the finale.
Ice ruins permeated by death.
A deranged vampire and her pet demon.
Visions of Nightshade Academy on fire.
Just another chapter in the nightmare that has become the life of Nova Ray.
Helena, Nightshade’s benefactor, wants me and my twin, Archer, to find some portal leading into another world, one full of angels and demons.
Kian, our clairvoyant tagalong, wants to stop Nightshade from burning to the ground, but he doesn’t know who or what causes the fire in his visions. Helena is as good a bet as any after what she did to him, though.
Nightshade hasn’t seen her true colors. We have. If Archer and I don’t do what she wants, she’ll kill Kian, and she’ll make me watch every bloody second of it.
Some people carry the blood of demons.
They often appear normal.
They may even be unaware of it themselves.
Until the curse activates.
When a monster awakens, someone usually ends up dead.
But not all hope is lost.
All monsters are welcome at Nightshade Academy.
Eighteen-year-old Nova Ray didn't have big plans for the future. She was comfortable living life quietly and unseen with her mother, but all of that changed the night a mysterious man triggered her curse and revealed her vampire nature.
Nova would have killed someone that night, maybe even her human mother, if she hadn't been found and taken to Nightshade Academy first.
But her troubles are far from over.
Nova's in lockdown.
Nightshade Academy is supposed to rehabilitate monsters. The goal is to teach them how to control their monster natures so they can rejoin human civilization.
But Nova's bloodlust is insatiable and picky. She's fixated on a star student: Kian Salazar. He wants to help her, but she can't stop thinking about drinking his blood.
It's all too much.
What if she kills him?
If the curse consumes Nova, she'll truly be a monster.
And there's no going back from that.
This book contains Nightshade Academy Episodes 1-5.
I gave in to my bloodlust.
I almost got Kian and myself killed because of it.
Monster hunters, demons, Nighshade's mysterious benefactor. There's a lot about this world I don't know, and it keeps getting worse.
Kian's blood is the only thing I can stomach. Our Colors react, and he knows things about me he shouldn't.
The headmaster of Nightshade Academy says she's never seen a blood sensitivity as bad as mine, which is probably a nice way of saying my bloodlust is out of control.
I'm starting to think I'll never get out of here or see my mom again.
But I'm not giving up. I'm going to beat this—if Kian doesn't ruin me first.
My mom is dead.
She committed suicide.
It wasn’t supposed to be this way. I was going to beat my bloodlust and go back to her.
Now I have nothing except for an addiction to Kian’s blood and a twin I didn’t know about.
My twin’s name is Archer, and our Colors are reactive. I’m dangerous enough on my own. With Archer, I’m worse.
We drain the auras of living things.
I don’t want to hurt anyone. I want to know if my feelings for Kian are more than my bloodlust.
For once in my life, I want to choose.
The haunting trees lead me astray, a liar’s tongue that I hear play.
Avery has a dangerous secret.
He pretends to be this perfect angel, but he regularly sneaks into the town’s forbidden forest.
I’m the only one who knows, and I paid for it the night I followed him inside. There’s a reason the forest is forbidden. Ghost wolf, anyone?
Don’t worry. I survived. But I’m more confused than ever, and Avery isn’t forthcoming.
What’s it going to take to get him to talk?
I have a war to end.
I've become Queen of Wolf Bridge, and I'm taking Paws Peak next.
But my body is revolting. Two of my four mates have sealed me. It isn't enough.
If I'm reckless, everything will fall apart. Tenuous ideas of peace between werewolves, vampires, and humans are riding on my moonlight. My need overshadows reason. Once all of my mates take me, I'll be whole, but the world might be damned.
One story ends, another begins.
Contains mature themes.
I'm the Lost Princess of Howling Sky. Only a few days ago, I would have said that was crazy, that I'm just Sorissa. Now I'm living crazy. Everybody wants to use me for their own gain in the Prime War.
Except for Phantom Fangs, my werewolves.
I left with vampires to save their lives. Maybe the vampires intend to kill me, but I'm not that fragile. I'll survive, and I'll keep my werewolves safe.
Contains mature themes.
I was sold to werewolves.
They said I'm the Lost Princess of Howling Sky. I said I'm just Sorissa. They said I'm to be claimed by a lecherous prince and that I'll end some timeless war between werewolves, vampires, and humans. I made other plans.
Then four powerful werewolves from a rival kingdom came out of nowhere, and I was stolen again.
They call themselves Phantom Fangs. Now, they're taking me to their kingdom to keep me "safe." They probably intend for some other prince to claim me instead. But I'm going to change their minds. They're different from the other werewolves. They're kind, they listen to me, and they make my blood run hot.
Can I trust them?
Contains mature themes.
