In the kingdom of Noctaris, every vampire is given a time frame to find their mate. A generous 500 years to be exact. If a vampire fails, their bodies wither and fade into dust. There is no exception.
When desperation leads him to the human lands, he never expects to find his salvation in her, Elena Briarwood. The moment his eyes feast upon her, he knows. She, this flourist, completely human and utterly unaware of what her future now holds, is his mate.
Elena is no willing princess. She refuses to be taken away from her life, her flowers, her home. She does not believe in fate or any vampire nonsense. Those are their customs, not hers.
Lucian has no choice, time is running out. If he does not claim her, he loses everything. The throne. His life.
Despite all her protest he spirits her away to the Ebonmere Palace, the heart of the vampire kingdom, where she is thrust into a world of darkness and blood.
The nobles despise her.
The court whispers about their prince's human mate, his fragile mate. Worst of all, the Blood Council, the throne's helping hand, would rather see her dead than on their throne.
Elena is determined to escape.
Lucian is determined to keep her.
Adrian, tuan muda kaya raya, Alpha, semua orang bertanya-tanya apa yang ia tidak punya kecuali narsisme dan keenganannya untuk melakukan pekerjaan rumah?
Bagaimanapun, Theodore tidak bisa membiarkan Adrian, orang yang ditakdirkan bersamanya menjadi penghalangnya. Tapi tentu saja tidak mudah. Adrian-begitu memesona dan menarik. Meski Theodore tidak akan mengakuinya.
