For 400 years, I have maintained the rules laid down centuries ago by Born vampires. We stay hidden in the shadows away from humans, and kill our enemies, the Lycans, when they trespass into our territory. 

A test of my morality comes when a Lycan child crosses our border one day, and instead of killing it, I set it free. I am rewarded by the Lycans, but I have flouted the law I’ve so carefully followed for centuries. 

I almost believed no one would discover my indiscretion when Arthur, a sinister Hunter tasked with finding vampires who have broken the laws, arrives at our castle. Then my best friend, Olivier, is recruited by Arthur, and I am all but certain I have been discovered. 

I only have one option left. 

Fleeing from the castle, I by chance befriend a Lycan named Knight. We can hardly stand being in the same room as each other, but there’s something about him that I cannot ignore. I eventually find myself in a town ruled by vampires, and run by a volatile vampire called James. 

As James begins to exert control over me, the only way I can escape is with Knight by my side, and I am not sure I’m prepared to discover what is growing between us. But one foe can only be replaced by another, and while the dangers of James are bad enough, with the Hunters still searching for me, it might just be the safest place to be.
