Aurora Alistair is a lone vampire, navigating the world with a haunting past heavy on her shoulders. She never stays in one place for too long, and resides in the comfort of the darkness that protects her from the sun's wrath against her species.
During her lonely journey, she encounters a newly-transitioned vampire in his first hunt whom she decides to help out of pity. She decides to allow him to tag along with her, when she finds out his Creator has irresponsibly left him to fend for himself. Only temporarily, that is, until he is fully capable to be off on his own.
With a new companion by her side, Rory's old wounds begin to slowly reopen, and she will be forced to face her daunting past.

Taste of Fate: The Vampire King's Human Mate (Book 1)
"Her hazel eyes, wide with fear, avoided meeting mine. Her body trembled in delicate, and broken shivers. The curves of her face were hauntingly beautiful, innocence etched into every inch. Her skin was a milky white, smooth except for tiny crisscrosses of scars. I was transfixed. But the sight of her was only a temporary diversion from the torment within. The pulse of her blood was visible in the delicate curve of her neck. My mouth felt heavy on my jaw and as I stepped forward, her pulse quickened."

A chance encounter with a seemingly ordinary human named Elowen unravels a captivating tale of addiction, power, and a blood bond that defies the very fabric of his understanding. Elowen's blood possesses an inexplicable hold over Sebastian, and it thrusts him into a relentless pursuit of answers. As he grapples with the mysteries of her existence, the kingdom teeters on the brink of war, and Sebastian faces challenges that pale in comparison to the internal turmoil ignited by his connection to the weak human he cannot let go of. Will Sebastian untangle the questions of Elowen's blood, or will the intoxicating allure of her existence forever alter the course of his immortal life?Complete
