I never meant to return to Ravenwood. For centuries I stayed in its shadows, guarding the fragile peace from a distance, ensuring no one ever whispered my name. I convinced myself I was finished with attachments, finished with history repeating itself. I was wrong.
I felt her before I saw her. A pulse in the air. A scent that cut through fog and saltwater and lodged itself beneath my skin. When I found her, she was on the outskirts of town beside a car with a blown tire. No panic. No trembling. She fixed it herself, hands steady, jaw set with quiet determination. Seventeen. Mortal. And yet the blood in her veins carried something potent, something I hadn’t sensed in centuries.
I followed at a distance. Learned she lived with an aunt near the cliffs. Learned her schedule, her routines, the rhythm of her days. It should have been enough to observe.
It wasn’t.
Her heartbeat is brighter than any I have heard in decades. It calls to me. Not just hunger—something deeper. Possessive. Primal.
So I enrolled at Ravenwood High. Forged records. Bent minds gently until no one questioned my presence. Senior year, every class aligned with hers. Every hallway encounter intentional. Every glance calculated.
I do not feed on humans. I do not lose control.
But when she walks into a room, I forget centuries of discipline. I watch her like a man starved.
And this time, I am not certain I want to resist.
