Order before blood.

After the Vampiric Queen is nearly assassinated, it becomes Delia's next mission to protect the Heir at all costs in the hills of Scotland. With thick blooded hatred, Delia must find out who is threatening the Prince all while keeping a close eye on him for the Keepers.

This is a job, save the Vampire Prince and play the spy for the Order of the Sword. This should be easy- I was raised to do this... but he's not like the others. None of them are.

As the Crow Falls | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

But being the new girl is the least of her problems.
