The vampires have run the realm of Riveath for as long as any human can remember. Their reign is not, as one might expect, a reign of tyranny and death. Their people have freedoms to travel, marry, and work as they like, as well as speak freely. But their laws are immutable, and well enforced. No violent crime, conspiracy, or theft against another citizen of the realm, especially the vampires. Certainly no trying to kill an Ancient's mate.
When Nick Lakeman is falsely accused of just that crime, he is sent to Bloodrose Mansion, the seat of the High Ancients, to bear a sentence of servitude. He must learn to navigate through his new circumstances, but not everything is as it seems. Something is very wrong in Riveath, and Nick's innocence is just the beginning.

Bite Me
"You aren't the only one who can bite, love. Did you forget that?" I tensed, feeling his breath against the exposed flesh of my neck. "Don't-" "Why shouldn't I? You seem to have an issue understanding where you are right now." My hands began to shake as I felt his fangs scrap against my neck, sharp and almost ticklish. "I know you aren't stupid, Esma. You know what I'm capable of and yet you continue to test me. You are lucky that I am a very, very, patient man." I'd never been bit before but I knew it was excruciating. I braced myself for the pain, clenching my eyes shut, heaving in breaths that I tried to control but was too weak to do so. "I can feel your heart going a hundred miles a minute. Are you excited or afraid?" "Excited to be bitten by a vampire?" Aspen's teeth slowly dragged against my neck again, my tongue going dry. "You never know. Some humans find it enjoyable, but they're the ones who like pain. You remind me of them Esma, a little pain whore."
