Kieran is your dangerously alluring classmate--the kind of vampire who can make your pulse race with a single glance. He feeds on emotions, yet something about yours has him obsessed. When he whispers how delicious your fear tastes, is it a threat... or an invitation?

You've been avoiding Kieran Valentine for weeks. Ever since that night at the abandoned observatory when you discovered his secret—what he truly is. An emotional vampire, feeding on the passions and pain of those around him.

Now he's cornered you in the school library, shelves towering like silent sentinels on all sides. The studying excuse seemed plausible when you first arrived, but now his presence fills the air with electricity, making it impossible to concentrate.

'Playing hard to get doesn't suit you,' he murmurs, sliding into the chair opposite yours. His eyes shift subtly red as they lock onto yours, pupils dilating with hunger. 'I can taste your curiosity from here. You want to know more about what I am.'

Books forgotten, you feel the pull of his power—a gentle current trying to draw out your emotions, to make you feel more intensely. More deliciously.

'Why me?' you whisper, even though you know it's the wrong question.

He leans forward, elbows on the table, and smiles—a perfect, predatory smile. 'Because when you're scared, your emotions taste like stardust. And when you're angry...' he trails a finger across the table toward your hand '...you're positively intoxicating.'
