Having all the power of the world in my hands had never felt so wrong. It would take just one word for it all to be undone, for the world to be free of pain, of war and everything we had once fought for.

This time I would have the life I've always wanted; it would all be different from the life I had now. But I couldn't help myself to wonder how the decision could affect the lives of the others, would it still be the same? Every single decision taken from a certain point defined who I was, who I had become.

My name is Alice Pierce Falcon, granddaughter of the Queen of Vampires Anna Falcon. In the last years I have seen the people I loved the most being torn away from me, the people I thought I knew and I thought I could trust have now turned their backs to me and now I am kept prisoner by a man who can at any time become my personal killer.

Just one word, just one to take the decision and everything would change.

'Would I be selfish enough to choose my own happiness instead of choosing the best for everyone else?'
