In a world ruled by ancient bloodlines, Aurellia finds herself in the daunting presence of Xyrielo Lucien, the enigmatic head of the Xyrielo family. As she timidly introduces herself, Aurellia's gaze remains averted, conscious of the intimidating scar that traverses Xyrielo's right face above his piercing red and dark blue eyes.
Stricken with a mix of fear and fascination, Aurellia's body instinctively reacts to Xyrielo's commanding presence. The subtle flick of his fingers makes her flinch, setting her nerves on edge. With measured steps, he approaches her, his intense gaze fixated upon her as she keeps her head lowered. The anticipation in the air is palpable, as sweat trickles down Aurellia's face and her heart races uncontrollably.
Suddenly, Xyrielo's hand reaches out, its touch gentle yet commanding, as it rests on the nape of Aurellia's neck. The unexpected contact compels her to raise her eyes, meeting Xyrielo's gaze head-on. In that moment, a fateful connection is forged between them, fraught with unspoken tension and unexplored possibilities.
"Mine," Xyrielo declares with a possessive undertone, hinting at a complex relationship that lies ahead. Aurellia finds herself drawn deeper into the mysterious world of the Xyrielo family, where secrets, power, and an undeniable attraction intertwine, promising a tumultuous journey filled with danger, desire, and the struggle for identity.

A girl, a boy and a set of sharp canines-how do you survive in a world where humans and vampires live together?
Nineteen-year-old Maya has too much on her plate. Trying to protect her younger sister. Struggling with crushes on unsuitable guys. Justin is a newly converted vampire, battling to resist the urge to kill and desperately worried about his brother, converted at the same time but AWOL ever since. If the authorities find him first, he's toast.
When the two of them meet through the vampire Maya earmarks to help her with an exciting project aimed at making money, both are taken aback by the mutual attraction. First rule of vampire-human integration though...? You don't go that far.
And while living in this bleak world poses its own hazards, not least because those in charge are too ready to ride rough shod over vampires and happy to accept backhanders, Maya and Justin still need to cope with the day to day stuff. Going to college, fighting with your mum, obsessing over the food you can't eat, dealing with unpopularity and online trolls.
