Tempting Raven (Curse of the Vampire Queen Book 1)
Page 15
No, not a dream. A memory. From this life?
I open my jewelry box, and my heart cracks. The velvet choker with the rose pendant is lying inside.
“It really happened.” I rub my hand across the pendant, and then return to the notebook.
I fan through the pages, stopping toward the end.
If you don’t figure this out soon, you’re going to die all over again. You’ll die on the day you’re crowned, after the party. Don’t doubt me on this one. It’s the one thing Fate never changes. And I know Rhyland knows the answers to some of this. He’s the key to all of this. But either he won’t—or can’t—tell you. Whatever the reason, you need to figure out a way around it. Figure out how to break him like he’s done to you over and over again. Do whatever it takes to get to the truth.
I sink down into a chair as my legs give out on me and glance at my bed. Rhyland put a sleep spell on me right before I passed out. Why? And where is he getting the magic from? Who is Rhyland?
Who am I?
Bits of answers break through the wall, but they only create a jumbled mess of thoughts, just like the ink staining the notebook pages. But I vow to myself to make sense of it. To figure out what’s going on.
I won’t die this time around. I’ll survive to the end. I just need to find out how.
