Is she really dead dead as in completely dead?

i feel like she isn't because if she was the entire plot would be ruined and somewhat boring

not really because then the vampire could REALLY let loose on those that killed her love which in its own way would make for a good story all on its own

No, she’s 100% alive bc that’s always how it works

i totally agree that it would make a great story but if that ends up happening at all i think it’ll happen later in the series
