It was all her stepfather's fault. If he hadn't been so cruel to her, she wouldn't have been trying to exercise in the reserve that morning. And if she hadn't been jogging, she wouldn't have been attacked and now wouldn't be dying.To make matters worse, she was told that her body was dying, but she would live on. What sort of crazy talk was this? How could she live when her body was dead? It just didn't make sense.If it wasn't for Sebastian, she didn't think she would have ever believed it. But he was 'living' (pardon the pun!) proof. He was a Necrowight and as he put it, "The body is dead, but we still function, albeit differently." Crazy, right?Add to that the fact he was so good looking (okay, let's admit it, as sexy as hell), well, it made what she was going through all the more complicated.What was going to happen to her? If she died but didn't die, if she became a Necrowight, would her life be over before she even turned 18?
