Cover Reveal: The New Vampire, Episode 5, and a Tiny Peek at the Story

Here it is at last, the cover for the fifth and final episode of The New Vampire Series. The title is Unfurled Shadows. I don't have a description yet, but I do have two tiny sneak peeks. Unfurled Shadows opens with a stanza from "Ergasta Halloweye" that was recited as part of a foretelling made by Lanu in Episode 3: The Games We Play.

Beauteous mem'ry, bright and bold
Hid under watchful mind, and I
Shackle unfurled shadows cold
Thy beating heart, forever mine

And here's the first paragraph:

Some sorrows can be expressed with words or actions, through thoughts and some indefinable language created between the minds of bonded vampires and their families. Others remain trapped in our hearts, forever reverberating the consequences of a single poor decision into every aspect of our lives. I should’ve learned that the night Selena stole my humanity from me, leaving the shadows behind to haunt my every breath. I should’ve known I’d never free myself from that memory or its consequences.

I hope you enjoyed this sneak peek. Stay tuned for the full episode, coming soon!
