Bleeding Heart Grimoire

A Mary Vance Story

Bleeding Heart Grimoire

Mary Vance learned early that the world does not save girls like her. So she learned to save herself. And when that wasn’t enough, she learned to burn.

After the brutal murder of her mother and aunt, Mary enters Sterling-Whitman University with a single purpose: revenge. She hides her grief behind a quiet smile, studying medicine by day and the old magic whispered through her blood at night. Every step is deliberate. Every friendship chosen. Every lover, a tool. She is building a masterpiece of vengeance, thread by patient thread.

But the deeper Mary digs into her family’s legacy, the more she uncovers a secret war between ancient bloodlines and a society that has been watching her since before she was born. They think they know her role. They think they can control her.

They are wrong.

Mary will choose her own fate. And if she must become the monster to destroy the monsters, so be it.
The game has already begun.
And Mary plays to win.
