Highest ranking #9 Vampires | Underneath London's biggest cemetery, lies a secret only the dead can keep. Because London's oldest clan of vampires has been playing a secret game underneath the crypts for centuries. Each game lasts as long as one moon cycle, and only the brightest and best humans can compete. It's rare that any human survives the games, but the winner will get what every mortal desires - to live forever. For the losers, the price of entering is always their lives. By sheer bad luck, eighteen-year-old Lily has stumbled into this game. She has 30 nights to prove she has what it takes to be an immortal - but up against talented people who have been training for this contest for years, what chance does she have? Her only hope is convincing the enigmatic vampire gamemaster, Edric, to break the rules and spare her life. But falling in love has never been so dangerous...

She looks up at me, her eyes on fire, "Asher, give me one good explanation on why you won't let me leave!" I step forward, and she takes a step back, her back pressing against the wall, trapped. "Come on, kitten, I know you don't really want to leave," I state. Her eyes narrow, "what makes you think that?" I smirk, "stop pretending you don't want to kiss me right now." ************************************************** Asher Bates is the bad boy and underground fighter, and Soyer Hill wants nothing to do with him. He's not used to being told no, and he won't let Soyer be an exception to that. But will his stubbornness and her denial cause them to hate each other more or will it make them fall? (**warning my first story written in only a guy's POV so it's a little rough, but don't let that stop you from reading it**)

" Boundaries, we've got to have boundaries." He bit his lip and I felt his hand slide up my shirt. " Yeah, but not tonight."

Don’t talk to me.” I say flatly. “Excuse me?” he asked. “Don’t talk to me.” I repeat. “If you do, you’ll die in this school.”
