The Dagger by Kennedy Morgan

In Shadowborne Academy, vampire hunters are taught to wield the dagger in close handed combat.
The silver dagger doesn’t kill. Instead, the vampire is frozen in time and place, a coma of sorts.
Ash Carter found her mother daggered in her father’s study and everything she thought she knew about her mother’s death and her father’s life was suddenly called into question. Her list of enemies grew. Her determination to end the queen waned. How could she lose Jax too?

Jax Miller found the witch who’d grown up in the hive a prisoner in the Shadowborne dungeon. She offered him hope, she offered him a cure, she offered herself. Unfortunately, he only wanted two out of three because an eternity without Ash would be a punishment he’d never survive.
Choices will be made. Weapons will be wielded. Shadowborne Academy, the council, and love are on the line.
