Demetri was sent on a mission.
He came back with a child.
Athena was never meant to survive the ruins where she was found, and she was never meant to grow up within the walls of Volterra. The moment Demetri carries her into the throne room, fate makes its cruel choice-binding the human infant to Caius Volturi, the most ruthless king of the vampires. A bond neither of them wants. A bond that should not exist.
Worse, Caius is already mated.
As Athena grows, the bond tightens, pulling her toward a king who despises what she represents and fears what she could become to him. Trapped between duty and destiny, Caius must choose between the marriage that defines his rule and the forbidden connection that threatens to unravel it. In a world ruled by power, blood, and silence, loving the wrong person could destroy them both.
