DarkFire

When a young vampire becomes pregnant with a kitsune's child, something that should be biologically impossible, the most powerful beings in Europe are dragged into the same room to solve a mystery that threatens to unravel the supernatural world.

Forced into proximity by a crisis neither can ignore, Athena and Kael recognize something in each other that neither has encountered before: an equal. Not in power alone, but in the specific, crushing isolation of being unprecedented.

Two apex predators finding their match
Family as wound
Love as a deliberate choice
Autonomy as sacred
Power as isolation

Elegant violence, family betrayal, moral complexity, devastating emotional beats delivered with restraint, and a romance between two people who are categorically the most dangerous beings in existence and absolutely, utterly gone for each other despite knowing better.

"Power isolates. Love reaches. Both are terrifying when you've been alone for centuries."
