My name is Melody Anthony. I'm a human. But the THINGS that buy us ... They're not. Oops, sorry. I forgot to mention that I'm a slave. I've been to three 'homes' in the 14 years I've been a slave. I'm beaten every other day and when I'm not, I'm trying to escape.
One fateful day had it out for her. She didn't know humans could be mates to some 'monster'.
Andrew Bentley. The sexy Vampire King who's yet to find his other half. Not only werewolves have mate, you know. He goes to a slave trade to find someone to take her place because he is 22 and was supposed to find her years ago.
They feel the Sparks, the craving to be touching each other. But are they really true mates? Can they get through her fears and depression? The scars may heal with help, but is it the right man to help EVERYTHING heal? The scars, in and outside?
Ari and Soren's adventures continue as Soren struggles with his new vampiric urges and a coven of witches attempts to recruit Ari for their own ends.

Something is awakening within him, and as his power grows, he attracts the attention of a group of witches who call themselves the Hecataeon.

With their relationship facing challenges from within, Ari and Soren must find a way to unite their strengths before external forces tear them apart.
