Moonlight and Stardust (SunSun)
He never believed in monsters until one bit him under the red moon. Briar Aerin Faerydae was a curious forest fairy who never believed in tales of vampires - creatures of shadow said to haunt the edges of the Fae woods.

But on the night of the Blood Moon, when feral beasts tore through the forest, Briar found himself face to face with the truth - and with Lucien Malakai Vayne, the elusive Prince of Darkness. A single bite forged a bond neither of them intended, a mark of life and death that tied their hearts - and fates - together. Now, trapped between two warring worlds, Briar must learn to live among the creatures he once thought were myths, while Lucien struggles against his growing instinct to protect the fairy whose blood sings to him. In a kingdom where alliances are fragile and magic runs deep, love might be the most dangerous bond of all. "If I lose you, I burn. If you lose me, you bleed. That is the curse of our bond."
