Alina Pritchett is the daughter of a chef who works at the Crest--a palace formerly known as the White House. But her father is not who he seems; he does not just cook, but is also avidly involved with a rebellious group trying to topple the American Empire. Ever since Alina was young, she has known the horrors that They commit, and has been yearning for the time when she can truly fix her world.

Braen Chancel is the son of the President of the American Empire. He has been trained for years in political machinations and etiquette, waiting for the moment when he can take over from his father and follow in his footsteps.

Follow Alina from the moment that she meets Braen at twelve years old, and watch as she grows up beside her enemy. Alina will learn how to keep secrets, and how to have friends on both sides of a war. She will learn how to let go of attachments, and she will learn the true meaning of sacrifice and loyalty. No one will remain unscathed by the civil conflict that is about to unfold before your very eyes.

As the sun vanished the world was thrown into chaos, vampires had taken over.. With the take over they hadn't realized that this could possibly be the downfall of their race, especially when they discovered their mates in humans or even changed humans. An anomaly had started to appear in some of those that were either created or born. It had created what Vampires and humans had started to call Hybrids. Some vampires started to take action against the hybrids where others saw no issue until a new King rose to the throne. This king held a few secrets of his one, one being his Queen was a hybrid: the very thing he detested and the very thing she was. The other was one that not even his Queen knew, so when she was allowed to leave the kingdom to go in search of one of her sisters that very secret would soon be revealed to her. If the vampires were allowed to ride the world of the hybrids, that would also mean the end of the human races, if the hybrids that had soon formed a rebellion against the tyrant ruler succeeded in overthrowing the king it would be the end of the secrets that he had been hiding for several decades. If the rebellion won would they order the end of the vampires or would they learn to coexist. Either way one way or the other the world was about to change once again. Maybe someday someone would be able to bring the sun back, for now that wasn't something anyone was thinking about. #ONC2022 Prompt #19 The sun goes out and no one knows why, just as no one can say for certain how life on earth is able to carry on without the life giving necessities of its star. But with the planet on the state of perpetual darkness, the vampires certainly aren't complaining.
