Sneak Preview Blood Bound – Imprinted Souls Series #4 Chapter 1 Life… Death… I’m not even sure at what point it all turned into a cruel joke; a joke where what I had wished for turned out to be what I now hated the most. That night started out just like any other night. I was home alone, waiting for my maker, Nicholas, to return so that he could take me hunting.
