They say you can never go back… ‘Course, I never wanted to return. It took me years to age out. Once I made it, I took off and never turned around. Trust me, there were only three reasons I managed to survive there as long as I did and they abandoned me as soon as they were able. I’d like to say I didn’t blame them, but that would be a lie. I had zero desire to return. Yet here I was, on the road to Northland chasing a story cause my editor told me kids were disappearing… again.

Kaitlin Crosse übt eine außergewöhnliche Macht über mich aus. Sie drängt mich, fordert mich heraus und treibt mich an den Rand des Wahnsinns. Seitdem sich unsere Wege gekreuzt haben, bin ich absolut und unwiderruflich von ihr besessen.

Five years ago, I disappeared from the life I had and built this one. I spend my days and most of my nights on the line, helping my clients achieve their goals. They call me when they are in a jam or are getting ready to move on a target. I'm their information specialist. The woman in the chair. I'm their switchboard. Intelligence, electronic eyes, computer hacking—I do it all. My singular goal is to bring my clients home safely. Some clients are more special than others. We all play favorites. I know them, they've never seen me.

Emersyn Sharpe war nicht so, wie ich es erwartet hatte, und gleichzeitig alles, was ich mir je erträumt hatte. Sie war geblieben und hatte alles verändert. Sie hatte die Jungs in ihre Schranken gewiesen. Sie hatte Feuer und Mumm, eine Wildheit, die ich auch gerne hätte.

Emersyn Sharpe gehört nicht in unsere Welt. Eigentlich ist der letzte Ort, an dem sie sein sollte, bei uns. Aber jemand tut ihr weh. Wir haben es alle gesehen. Wir haben versucht, die Warnzeichen zu ignorieren. Wir haben versucht, den Menschen um sie herum zu vertrauen. Wir haben versucht, an ihre Welt zu glauben.

Die Pop-Prinzessin mit den leuchtend blauen Haaren, den vollen Lippen, den eindringlichen Augen und der Stimme einer Sirene … Musik scheint die einzige Sprache zu sein, die wir beide sprechen. Das ist nicht genug. Nicht für sie. Nicht für die anderen. Für niemanden. Ich bin nicht genug. Meine Brüder wollen sie, die Welt besitzt sie, und alle anderen wetteifern um ein Stück von ihr. Am Ende des Schuljahres ging sie weg und schenkte uns keinen weiteren Blick. Sie hat uns weggeworfen, wie sie ihren Vater weggeworfen hat.

For centuries, the Lord of the Dead has searched for her—his queen, his soul's twin, scattered across mortal lives and fading memories. She is Irina now, unaware of who she was, haunted by dreams that aren't dreams, shadowed by gods who remember too much. But something is waking. Drawn together by fate, Irina and Graven—Aïdes, unseen ruler of the Underworld—find each other once more. But to reclaim her full self, Irina must walk through every life she's lived, every truth she was denied, and confront the oldest lie of all: that she was ever a girl stolen.

My name is Mickey James. Little Bit is everything. I fought to stay away, and I’ll fight to keep. Our enemies are going to learn that my skill at healing broken bodies makes me damn talented at damaging them too. They drew blood, we’ll bury them.

My name is Liam O’Connell. Hellspawn is mine. Emersyn is ours. We aren’t going to wait around for the next attack. No, we’re taking the fight right to them.

I’d been called so many names over the years. None of them mattered. My mirror cared more than I did. But he never treated me as less. None of them did. My brothers were the Vandals. They didn’t always understand, but they never judged and they always had my back.

My only connections were forged through the veil of a computer screen. I was their voice in the dark, their operator. I was their lifeline—until the day my past tore into my present, and they had to become mine. Captured, subjected to torture and relentless interrogation, I survived long enough for them to find me. I harbor no delusions; fleeing and disappearing again is not an option. The only way to win is to fight. But to fight, you also have to be willing to risk everything. I was okay with that when the only one at risk was me.

Ich wurde in die besten Kreise Hollywoods hineingeboren und war schon in den Schlagzeilen und im Internet, bevor ich überhaupt laufen konnte. Es spielt keine Rolle, dass sich meine Eltern vor meinem zweiten Geburtstag scheiden ließen. Ich kann den Schatten–oder den Skandalen–meiner Filmstar-Mutter und meines Rockstar-Vaters nicht entkommen.

I’ve worn a lot of labels over the years. For as long as I can remember, I wanted to escape. I hid in my dance. I ran away from my life as much as I could. I fought to be somewhere else, even if I couldn’t be someone else. One night, after my partner lashed out at me and I’d been hurt, the Vandals took me and never looked back. They introduced me to a world I had no idea existed and a family so much greater than the one I’d been trying to survive.

Born into Hollywood royalty, I’ve been making the hot sheet and generating internet buzz since before I could even walk. Doesn’t matter that my parents divorced prior to my second birthday, I can’t escape the shadows—or scandals—of my movie star mother and my rock star father.

Von dem Moment an, als ich erfuhr, dass sie an unsere Schule kommen würde, hatte ich das Gefühl, dass es in einer Katastrophe enden würde. Warum hatte sich Kaitlin Crosse von allen Schulen der Welt ausgerechnet für unsere entschieden? Ihre Anwesenheit verwirrte meine Brüder und führte zu Spannungen zwischen ihnen, aber ich merkte bald, dass meine anfänglichen Annahmen über sie völlig falsch gewesen waren.

Our feelings for her were like wild animals finally freed from their cage. But my sparrow, she was the most brutal fighter of us all. She’d had to be. The battles she’s survived, she’s done in silence and alone. Not anymore. Never again.

The pop princess with her bright blue hair, pouty lips, haunting eyes, and the voice of a siren. She’s always been too busy for us. Music seems to be the one language we both speak. It’s not enough. For her. For them. For anyone. I’m not enough.

Family legacy dictates everything from type of education to suitability of friends to eligible marriage opportunities to the type of business I’m expected to go pursue. It’s more than just DNA, it’s also about birth order, gender, and unfortunately—the family name. I was born a Reed and the weight that carries isn’t limited to the doors that it opens, but also the ones it bars shut. When I was tapped for the Royals, I saw my first way out—but it only proved to be a deeper trap.

Mein Name ist Emersyn Sharpe. Bis vor einigen Monaten war ich die Hauptdarstellerin einer Wandershow, die ihren Vertrag noch zu Ende erfüllen musste. Ich war geschlagen worden, aber nie gebrochen. Dann nahmen sie mich mit. Ich gehöre nicht in ihre Welt. Trotzdem nahmen sie mich mit, aber ich wusste nicht, warum. Sie versprachen, mich zu beschützen und für meine Sicherheit zu sorgen, aber sie hätten wissen müssen, dass ich weglaufen würde.

From the moment I learned she was coming to our school, I had a gut feeling it would end in disaster. Out of all the schools in the world, why did Kaitlin Crosse have to choose ours? Her presence confused my brothers and created tension between them, but I soon realized my initial assumptions about her were completely wrong.
