Shadowvein (Veinbound #1)

by L. Ann

There is no completing myself without her. And whatever follows, there will be no undoing what has begun.

“Why is she so important to you?” “Because she sees me when others don’t.” A blunt truth. Stripped down. The reality is deeper. She awakens something in me I thought long dead. She sees beyond the masks I've worn for so long.

Time loses shape. Only intent remains. The desperate need to escape. To survive. To continue. For her. For what might still be.
