Claimed by the Blood Sovereign
"Sell her to the highest bidder."
To save my innocent sister from a dark-iron prison cell, I offered myself up on the velvet stage of the Blood Gala—a treacherous market where dark monsters trade human souls. I expected to be bought by a low court lord. I never expected him.
Sovereign Julian Von-Reyes. Cold. Brutal. The undisputed Vampire King of the Blood Court, whose lethal gaze makes ancient lords bow in terror.
With a single breathtaking offer, he claims me as his exclusive property and drags me into his shadow-drenched citadel. But Julian didn't buy me for my submission. He bought me because my rare human blood acts as an intoxicating narcotic to his dead senses—and my skin carries the ancient Sun-Mark destined to shatter his enemies.
He thinks he owns my body. He thinks he can use my heat to conquer his throne.
But as rogue warlords circle the citadel and his dark fangs graze my neck, the boundary between absolute hatred and burning desire dissolves. To survive the war waking beneath the stone floor, I have to surrender to his possessive touch... or let the darkness consume us both.
