The vampire world is strictly ruled by one thing - blood type. Not pureblood or mutt, but the biological blood types studied in school. Ordered by rarity and compatibility, the everyday interactions between vampires are often dangerous and political in nature. In fact, drinking the blood of someone - human or vampire - that is incompatible with one's own can be detrimental to his or her health.
One such vampire is Calla, a newly turned vamp with O positive blood. Learning to navigate this underground world will take some time, especially since she doesn't really know her blood type - yet. After all, one is strongly encouraged to avoid foods that make you sick, isn't she?
Calla is being followed, too. She doesn't know by who, but she'll find out eventually. This person is either her saving grace, or her doom. Worst of all - she doesn't know which.
Ari and Soren's adventures continue as Soren struggles with his new vampiric urges and a coven of witches attempts to recruit Ari for their own ends.
*****
As dark dreams plague Soren, Ari finds his new abilities difficult to control. Something is awakening within him, and as his power grows, he attracts the attention of a group of witches who call themselves the Hecataeon. They believe Ari is an emanation of the goddess Hecate - a physical manifestation of her power - and they want that power for themselves. With their relationship facing challenges from within, Ari and Soren must find a way to unite their strengths before external forces tear them apart.
