And Fast.If I am going to survive long enough to discover the truth, I’m going to have to learn to control the demon buried deep within me.

For the Love of Justice


Debbie Cassidy - 2020
    The events that take place happen a few months after the events of the main series and provide readers with an insight into what happened after the big climax. I strongly recommend reading the Nightwatch Academy series before reading this novella.Change isn't always for the better, and sometimes it plain sucks!Since the universal glamour fell, no supernatural is safe. Registration is compulsory, daemons are being rounded up and sent back to Demonica, and with the human police force sticking their oars in left right and centre, being a nightwatch agent is harder than ever.The world has changed and we’re having to adapt. Thank god for the support of my guys. But in the early hours of the morning, just before sleep takes me, I think about him—the one who left promising to return.Just when I decide enough is enough and that it’s time to go after him, I get the news I’ve been waiting for, followed by a shitty twist.Harmon is back, but he’s locked in Hallow Hills Prison.My family is so close to being complete, and not even a maximum-security prison is going to come between me and my man.I’m going in, and I’m not coming back out without him.If only fate could leave it at that.
