James StarkJames Stark is a sexy sixth former that prefers to be called Stark. He named himself in honor of James Dean's character, James Stark, from Rebel without a Cause. He first appeared in UNTAMEDwhen Stark transfers into the Tulsa House of Night from Chicago's House of Night. He has an instant connection with Zoey, but that connection is broken when his body rejects the Change and he dies shortly after their first real conversation. However Zoey, knowing that he may return, attempts to revive him before Neferet, until she is distracted by the near death of her Grandmother. Stark is well known in the vampyre community for his archery skills; despite being a fledgling, he placed first in the "Summer Games", the vampyre version of the Olympics, ahead of full grown vampyres previous to his introduction to Zoey. Stark's skill comes from his affinity for extreme accuracy and potency, allowing him to never miss his target and making him lethal with a bow and arrow. He admits to Zoey that he accidentally killed his archery mentor with his powerful gift before he understood his power, he kept his gift a secret because he believed his gift was not good and dangerous, he does not want to hurt the people he loves just by misundertsanding his thoughts and aiming at someone else. Zoey and Stark kiss while she holds him as he dies, and that is when she tells him that he will be brought back to life. At the very end of UNTAMED, he returns as an undead minion of Neferet's, attempting to call Zoey back as she flees. Neferet tells him he can have his heart's desire if he does as she says. He then shoots an arrow into Stevie Rae's chest with Neferet's command, and her blood is used to resurrect an ancient evil, Kalona. Although Zoey's friends believe that Stark is evil, he really is not, due to the fact that he still does have part of his humanity and doesn't kill Stevie Rae, which he easily could have with his gift. During HUNTED, Zoey tries to make Stark see, just like she did with Stevie Rae, that he can choose his humanity over being a monster. Even in his 'undead' state, Zoey still finds herself falling for him, and tries to help him. Eventually, Stark chooses good over evil, and pledges himself as a Warrior to Zoey, which is a very powerful oath that can only be broken by death or release by the High Priestess. In doing this, he becomes a red vampyre (the only other being Stevie Rae)with marks resembling arrows, and turns away from Neferet and Kalona. Neferet tells him to shoot an arrow into Zoey's heart, it is then that he realizes he loves her but just doesn't want to say it then, he remembers an earlier conversation with Zoey in which she claims to have given him her heart when they were bound by the worrior's oath. He then shoots the arrow aiming it at where Zoey's heart truly is (him). Zoey figures this out just in time and calls the elements and 'flings' their protective powers at Stark just before the arrow makes it to him.Which leaves him laying on the ground and bruised by the power of the elements. After Kalona is gone, Zoey walks over to where Stark's body is, and when she touches him, although he is bruised and scarred he is very much alive.In TEMPTED Stark and Zoey are in love but neither say so. It is an obvious relationship between the two teenagers. But it is very obvious that Stark is trying not to show his true feelings for Zoey, because he just wants to be the very best warrior he can be. At the end of TEMPTED, Stark gets mad at Zoey and walks away, but then Heath gets kalona mad and he kills Heath. Stark sees Zoey trying to save him but her soul shatters, and Stark starts to cry because he felt her soul shatter, and he thinks that she's dead. In the end it's clear he is in love with Zoey so it's assumed that Stark plans to save her.
