    Summary

    “Carmilla, please,” I begged, unable to stand seeing her so. “What ails you?”
    She gazed on me so piteously I forgot myself and stepped further in to go to her, help her somehow…but I halted mid-step as she startled, bracing herself on the snow-dusted stone at her back.
    The door swung shut behind me with a low, protracted creak as we stared at each other, at a loss. Eventually, she lowered her eyes, biting her lip as she did when in consternation, though on this occasion it was eerily difficult to tell the white of her teeth from the colourless lip into which they dug.
    The tumult of nameless worries colliding in my mind and beating in my breast quieted as terrible revelation dawned on me.

     

    Something is wrong with Carmilla.
    While her father is occupied with dinner guests, Laura seeks out her companion, determined to find out what.

    Summary

    Twenty years after 'Lilies' and one after 'Roses', Laura and Carmilla live a reclusive eternity, a perfect idyll in their secluded sanctuary in France. Their love, once a secret heresy, has become the only law of their small world. But the century is turning, and the progress of the mortal world—with its telegraph wires, its science, and its cold logic—is beginning to cast an unwelcome light upon the shadows they so cherish.

    Their paradise is threatened not by old superstitions, but by a new kind of zeal: an order of men that blends religious fervour with a clinical methodology, one that sees evil in more than just a thirst for blood. Hunted not only for what they are, but for whom they love, Carmilla and Laura are forced to confront the fragility of their Eden. This is not the story of the fall in paradise, but of the exile that follows when paradise is set aflame by the outside world.

    Summary

    “A Vampire Cannot Enter Without Your Permission. Be Careful With Your Words.”
    ---
    It's 4AM, and halfway through her mug of hot chocolate, a monster hunter muses to her vampire best friend, “What’s the best way to edge a vampire?”

    They then debate homophones, have a lot of sex, eat toast, and engage in some good ol' fashioned hypnosis to make it happen.

    But that’s alright. Lauren has another friend— an online friend named Eris. After a tragedy of her own, Eris takes up residence at Lauren’s home. But trouble follows. Girls around them start dying. Lauren is torn between friendships old and new, all the while grappling with strange new feelings she never dared imagine.

    Eris claims that they were fated to love each other. But if so, why does Eris keep on calling Lauren some other name…?
