The mansion was never abandoned.
Everyone in Blackthorn Hollow knew the story.
Hidden beyond the forest and swallowed by endless storms stood a forgotten estate no one dared approach. Some claimed it was haunted. Others swore something far worse lived within its walls.
Ophelia never believed the rumors.
Until the night a violent storm drives her through the mansion's gates.
What begins as a desperate search for shelter quickly becomes a nightmare when she discovers she cannot leave.
Trapped inside the sprawling estate with its mysterious owner, Ophelia finds herself at the mercy of Victor-the cold, arrogant man who seems to know far more about her than he should. Beautiful and terrifying in equal measure, Victor guards countless secrets behind his sharp tongue and endless walls.
The most dangerous one?
He's the beast that surrounds the legends of the manor.
Exiled centuries ago for defying his own kind, Victor has spent years alone, cursed to watch the world move on without him. He has no interest in a stubborn human who constantly challenges him, disobeys him, and somehow finds a way beneath the defenses he's spent lifetimes building.
But legends speak of something called a Fate.
A bond so rare it occurs only once in a vampire's existence.
A soulmate.
And according to every ancient law Victor has spent centuries trying to forget, Ophelia is his.
As strange feelings begin to grow between captor and prisoner, shadows lurking beyond the estate awaken. Ancient enemies are searching for something hidden within the mansion's walls, and Ophelia may be connected to it in ways neither of them understand.
Now, Victor must choose between protecting the human who has become his greatest weakness or losing the only person fate ever intended for him.
Because some monsters are born.
And some are created by love.
