Here's an excerpt from the book for you to enjoy now ~ William could hardly take a sip, his hands trembled so badly. The tepid water trickled down his throat, but his stomach revolted as if he had swallowed sea water. He spit it out onto the floor and dropped the cup. Spasms gripped his gut. He bent over and moaned, but his moan changed into a screech. “’Tis da curse, lad. I’m sorry.” William shook his head. His long hair fell and stuck to his wet face. Breathe. He toppled off the bed onto his hands and knees. He arched his back and yelled. The pain was excruciating, unbearable. Muscles twisted, bones cracked, and moved beneath his skin as if they were stretching, increasing in size, growing. His skin constricted tighter and tighter. Doc’s eyes widened. “My God…Your back…” Fear filled his quaking voice.William’s shoulders bulged. He threw his head back in agony. Something twisted around in the middle of his back as if a sword pierced bone, tissue, and organs. What had Lark done to him? “Something…is…inside me, Doc.” His voice was strained. Another burst of pain silenced him then slowly subsided. He hissed. “Stop it. Before ”Another wave of torture ripped through him and stomped out his thought. Doc sagged against the wall. “I don’t know what to do, lad.” William’s arms gave way, and he fell onto his stomach. The cold wooden floor failed to cool his sweltering body. A memory of swimming with Kane in a freezing lake on his father’s land in Ireland one summer’s day popped into his mind. He wished he could throw himself into the icy water now. Something tore through the flesh of his back. He cried out in anguish, but his screams sounded more like a raven’s screech.Black wings flapped back and forth, and chilly air swirled over his body. He had wings! What kind of vampire was he? He shuddered. Tears pushed on the back of his eyelids. Footsteps thudded down the hall. Someone pounded on the door. “Doc!”William winced at Kane’s commanding voice.The door slammed open. Kane and Hannah burst into the room.William turned his head, glad his hair prevented him from seeing his beautiful Hannah. Though she’d given her heart to Kane, William didn’t want her to see him like this, to see the disgust and horror in those pretty brown eyes. But he couldn’t help sneaking a peek, only to see her edging closer to Kane, and a familiar loss seized him. She had chosen a vampire over him. His face grim, Kane gripped his sword. “Bloody hell.” Bones crunched, and William’s nose contorted, growing longer and longer. He swept his tongue along a mouth of razor-sharp teeth. Hannah grabbed Kane’s arm. “Kane, what’s ”Kane yanked his arm free and stepped in front of her. “Hannah, get back.” She slipped around him, her face white. “Kane, he’s turning into a…a…a dragon.”
