Quiet Mercy
Death required three signatures.
Her father signed the papers. The hospital logged her death. And House Gray—elegant, precise, and impossibly kind—gave her a second chance wrapped in courtesy and law.
Juliana Davenport, the woman who made the choice at Amy Lee's hospital bedside, now offers her a life of quiet power, procedural magic, and laws enforced through impeccable manners.
Sunlight is a budget, not a death sentence. Feeding is controlled, ethical, and choreographed, never predation.
Amy has to learn to navigate a world where vampirism isn't feral chaos but careful procedure. Where power is expressed through invitations and ink, and the supernatural hides behind perfect hospitality.
The house that saved her life runs on ancient oaths and careful secrets.
Can Amy Lee Davenport master herself before the masquerade shatters? Or will the cost of mercy prove to be higher than she can pay?
