THE NIGHT WORLD ... 'LOVE HAS NEVER BEEN 'SO DANGEROUS.

THE NIGHT WORLD isn't a place. It's all around us. The creatures of Night World are beautiful and deadly and irrisistable to humans. Your best friend could be one-so could your crush.

The laws of Night World are very clear: humans must never learn that Night World exists. And members of the Night World must never fall in love with a human. Violate the laws and the consequences are terrifying.

These are the stories about what happens when the rules get broken.

Thea manages to tell them that Eric is in trouble because the spirit was with him. She puts the spirit back where it came from. The Circle tells her that she cannot love a human so she chose to drink the Cup of Lethe, a drink that erases a part of your memory, erasing Thea's and Eric's knowing of Night World.
