In a world where ancient vampires rule from shadowed thrones and blood is the price of power, a poisoned vampire king tastes salvation in the most forbidden form... a human girl. Cleo never believed the legends whispered by the maids in the halls of her father's mansion until she found a wounded man in the woods... and he bit her. Now haunted by dreams and chased by danger, she doesn't know that the stranger she tried to save is Severin Vaelorian. The immortal king feared across empires by the most powerful people. He couldn't forget her even though he tried. She was supposed to be just a taste. But her blood awakened something dead in him... and now, he'll tear kingdoms apart to find her again. Even though all he has to go on was the scent of her and the intoxicating hold her blood has over him. But fate doesn't give without taking. And most times... it takes more than you can give

I woke to a sudden breeze invading the warmth from the heavy blanket that caressed my skin. Here, alone with my thoughts, the still, calm quiet in the atmosphere is almost painful. I feel suffocated in the clingy, static air. In quiet, still moments like these, I can almost feel Him. I don't know who "Him" is, but I can feel his presence. It's almost calming, especially on fearful, anxiety fueled nights. Usually, he was the strongest when I had a nightmare. The nightmares weren't as common now, but, right after everything happened, I was having them every night. I'd wake up and swear I was drenched in blood, my eyes and lips sticky, my nose filled with the smell of iron and fuel. After everything, that's when Him first came. From there, he just never left. I can usually sense when Him is near. Today, though, his presence is stronger. I can almost feel Him next to me, weighing down the mattress. Some nights, I roll over and imagine how he looks, envision his smile or the sparkle in his eyes. He's never there and I'm left clutching to the thought that he exists, staring into empty air. Tonight, though, I swear I can reach out and touch him. Extending my hand gently, I sweep my hand out into the darkness and meet an inexplicable warmth. A scream rips from my lungs as hands cover my face and two icy blue eyes stare back at me, daring me to speak again. A soft cloth caressed my nose and mouth before I felt myself fade into bed.
