The Blood and Snow World Order

Vampire Lies is the first book in the second season of Blood and Snow. As you know, in the first season I released one volume every two to four weeks.
If you haven’t read the first season, please do so. It will make your reading experience so much more enjoyable.

In season two
I’m going to release one book, which is the equivalent to four volumes every few months.

I chose to do it this way for two reasons. 1) I hoped it would be seen as a savings to my faithful readers who spent ninety-nine cents for each volume
in Season One, and 2) I want to see how it goes.

If
I
like this way better and
you
like this way better, then I’ll continue to release four volumes at once. Either way let me know. I value your opinion.

(((HUGS)))

Enjoy!

Dedication

This book is dedicated to those who love vampires, magic, and twisted fairy tales.

Acknowledgements

I start out with an idea. Shape it. Write it. And then turn it over to amazing people who help make it into something great. For this book those people are: Andrea Garcia, Jen Hendricks, Ali Cross, and my incredibly awesome
Street Team. I <3 each of you!

Prologue

“The
vampire child is not performing as expected. She doesn’t care about her destiny or the fate of her kind. She’s a total disappointment.” He slithered his body around the vast darkness that was everywhere and nowhere. The inkiness seemed to expand and contract, like breathing, around them.

“There is always our first inclination.”
She glided beside him, producing an orb of light, just big enough so they could see each other. Not that it was necessary, but she liked the way it shimmered.

“Destroy all
magical creatures and start over?” he asked.

She slithered around him. Their eyes locked for several seconds o
r days. Time meant nothing. “They are ours to do with as we please. Why not?” she finally added.

He sighed. “I’m tired.”

She bobbed in agreement. “Perhaps we should sleep for a few thousand years. The way these creatures are, we won’t miss anything.”

He nodded. “I like the sound of that. But first…” He trailed off.

She smiled. “You want to watch her fail.” It was a statement. She knew him as well as she knew herself.

“Yes. It shouldn’t take too long.”

“Right.” She blinked slowly. “Especially if we help her along and I have the perfect solution. A vampire with a craving for revenge.”

His mouth curved into a cruel smile. “I like the sound of that.”

Chapter
1

Hours before my life
changed forever, my day began like any other. I woke, climbed out of bed and stretched my wings, showered, dressed, and then flew out my window to explore Sharra with my best friend.

We’d already helped a fairy lift a particularity heavy caterpillar onto the branch it intended to use as a home for its chrysalis. We also assisted an ogre in its desperate quest to reach some juicy berries at the top of a
rather large tree. Now we were seated on the stone ledge at the top of my tower waiting for the sun to rise.

“Jasmine.
Come inside. We have a lot to do today.” My mom stuck her head and shoulders out my window. Her head turned from side to side as she searched the sky. She wouldn’t find me though, because I sat directly above her.

I sigh
ed heavily. “Fine.”

My mom gasped and
craned her neck. “You scared the light right out of me.” She clutched a hand to her neck.

“Sorry.” I tried to sound genuine.

“Uh-huh. Inside, please.”

But instead of obeying, I spread my large bla
ck wings and shot into the sky, enjoying the rose scented air.

“Young lady.”

My mom always called me that when I frustrated her. I turned to see the emotion on her face so I could gauge just how upset she was, but she no longer stood in the window. I smiled to myself.

Part of the
landscape was immersed in shadow. It was right before dawn, my favorite time of day, when life stretched itself awake.

“Hurry please,” my mom shouted from somewhere in my room
.
