Zinnia Mezzasalma is the night librarian in Verdance, a city soaked in blood and magic. Fifteen years ago, The Rupture marked every magical, mythical being--and now the humans know every monster that was hiding under the bed. She's been alive for almost three hundred years. She was a nun for ten of them. Her maker was murdered two hundred and fifty years ago, and Zinnia never got justice. She's seeking a cure for her vampirism, because it's the only way she can save her own soul. Books and Bloodlust is a free-to-read crossover story set in The Ruptured Realms. You can read this without reading the novels.
