"Find her!" the man's voice booms. The sounds of many footsteps and many yelling voices follow me. I dodge the thick tree branches and large boulders as I dash through the thick forest. They were all looking for me. "Don't let her escape!" another man's voice is barking orders in the distance. Their flashlights blink in wild directions as they run, flashing in all directions. My throat grows incredibly dry and I stop a good ways away from the area they're searching. I've been running for miles away from the containment ward. They were using us as subjects of research. I don't remember how I got in there in the first place. I don't even remember my name. I couldn't tell what time it was, but I knew it had been a while since I had a break; I left around noon and it's now incredibly dark, the only light was the stars and moon. A loud banging noise echoes through the forest, and I just barely spot a bullet flying past my face. "I found her!"One of them yells. Gasping, I break into full sprint in the opposite direction of the shooting. -- She doesn't know when, why, or how she got there, or who locked her up. But something inside her told her that the escape was necessary. She escapes the containment breach she was located in, guarded by hundreds of thousands of armed government forces, only to be captured again, and is unable to escape. But this time, it's by a completely different force group. "The Varying" Their leader doesn't trust her for a second, thinking that she's nothing for a spy for the Government. Oh, how wrong he is. --- Story by: KydaRio

Julia is on the run, fleeing for her life. An army of vampires ravage her country, plundering villages and enslaving their occupants. With the vampire horde closing in, Julia is forced to abandon her home and head south with the hope of reuniting with her brother. There they will build a new farm and live in safety. But one vampire lord has a different plan for her future. He tracks her down and takes her captive. No matter how hopeless her situation, she never gives up, risking her life to regain her freedom. He forces her down, punishing her when her defiant spirit hinders his mission. It soon becomes clear that she's nothing like the human soldiers he's used to dealing with. A sense a guilt begins to grow whenever he upsets the girl who both fears and leans into him for protection. Julia and the vampire lord are connected in ways they had never known. Their lives become entangled, bringing them to make decisions they would've never thought possible. Extract from Chapter 1: He unsheathes his blade, and I suddenly wish that he'd go back to poking me. He's going to cut me while I can't move? To torture me? I start to panic again. "No, no, no." I yank on the restraints, and the rope bites into my skin. I pull and pull and try to shuffle away from him. He presses the blade against my neck, and I freeze. "Fearful," he says. I catch a glimpse of his freakishly long canines. The edge of the blade presses on my skin, just enough not to draw blood.
