9 parts Ongoing MatureVampire lords, bloody streets, unbroken chains, and haunting pasts. When your world is ruled by the gods, how do you run? When you wake up in agony that never stops, how do you live? When you knock on legend's door, who answers?
Hemlock remembers nothing of his past, only knife-precise hunger and endless confusion over who-what-he is. And blood. So much blood coats his tongue and skin. It's become a part of his new life but it's a part that he doesn't know if he can stomach all that much. Fate, however, has other plans for him, and on a night of adrenaline-inducing panic and freedom, he stumbles upon the door of none other than the son of bloodshed himself.
When the newborn vampire finds himself under the wing of yet another dangerous name, his world is thrown off its axis in its entirety. He must relearn how to be himself and shape a new life, all while a cult's scheme drags him and sleeping beasts into the fray. Violence, uncertainty, twisted morality, and meetings with undead things become his new normal, and Hemlock makes the choice to stay at the side of the deadliest player in the game. Putting your life into the hands of someone who knows nothing but death is a risky and terrifying thing in times like these, but also perhaps the smartest if you play your cards right. Only fate itself knows if he'll come to regret it.
