When I left the Shade, everything seemed off. It was as if I woke from a dream and came back to reality. Was I really there? Did all of that really happen? Was I missing him? I'd ask myself these questions. Now that I'm back I've never been happier. The moon has never shone brighter. Derek is the hopeless romantic I remember. Things are in alignment until his father the King comes back to rule.
"What is this I hear of you falling for one of your slaves?" He demands.
"What is this I hear of you falling for one of your slaves?" He demands.
It has been centuries since the King has shown any kind of warmth toward his son. From what Derek has told me he can’t even remember the last time he had a pat on the back. The people of the Shade stand behind their Prince. The King has only one condition: I go and live in the catacombs. Just thinking about it sends a chill down my back. I’m surprised when Derek agrees. “If I have to I’ll go down and be with you. I’m not letting you out of my sight as long as he’s in power.”
Before long a rift is made between father and son. The King was an inch close to drinking my blood sending Derek into a rage. I'm never to be by myself. Guards never leave my side. Derek is training his military. I hardly see him. More important, I'm afraid of what's going to happen next...

We have yet to see the last of Bella Forrest! From her creativity with the characters I can tell this is only the beginning! There should be a genre just for her.
