Chapter 1

ผู้เขียน: Clara
The night hunters raided the training compound, my blood-bonded mate ran into the UV zone — not to save our son, but to save his human sweetheart's kid.

That kid was human.

Sunlight couldn't touch him.

But,our son Luka had completed his awakening less than a month ago.

The blood thrall housekeeper burst into my healing chamber, her face drained of color.

"Something's wrong at the young bloods' training compound."

My heart stopped. Luka had his first blood-control session there today.

He'd been too excited to sleep the night before.

When I got there, I found him curled in a corner.

The UV burns had split open the skin along both his arms, the veins underneath gone dark — not the deep red of healthy vampire blood, but the ashen black of something dying.

A newly awakened fledgling takes UV damage three times worse than a turned adult. He was still in the most vulnerable window of his awakening.

"Mom..."

He fell into my arms. Tears cut through the ash on his face.

"Does Father really not want me?"

My chest clenched like something had reached in and closed its fist.

He kept going, his voice breaking apart.

"Father was the first one to reach the compound when the raid started. I saw him. I thought — I thought he came for me."

Luka's small body trembled against mine.

"I called out to him. I called his name."

"But he just ran right past me."

"He grabbed Damian and walked out."

"He saw me, Mom. He looked right at me. And he didn't stop."

I held him tighter, eyes burning, unable to say a single word.

Damian was human.

The hunters' UV bombs couldn't touch him. He'd been standing in the light zone completely unharmed — just a boy in the sun, nothing more.

But Luka had just awakened. His blood instincts were still unstable. UV exposure at this stage could scar him permanently.

Kaelan knew this. He'd ruled this city for three centuries. No one understood how fragile a fledgling's awakening window was better than him.

And he still stepped over our son to carry out a human child the light couldn't even touch.

Every word I'd prepared to comfort Luka turned to ash in my throat.

Kaelan left the moment he found out I was pregnant. He didn't come back for the birth. Didn't come back for the first feeding, for the moment Luka's eyes shifted from human brown to vampire gold, for the first time his fangs came in. I raised Luka alone for four years — every milestone, every hard night, every time Luka asked where his father was. All of it, mine to carry alone.

Kaelan only came back last month.

I thought four years had changed something.

I thought we still had a chance.

I was wrong.

He came back because Vivienne said she wanted to return to the city.

Vivienne and her son Damian were both human — they lived in daylight, ate normal food, existed in a world that had nothing to do with ours.

But Kaelan arranged everything for them without hesitation.

He even enrolled Damian in the elite young bloods training program — a fully human child placed among vampire-born fledglings, simply because Kaelan decided he deserved the best.

I looked down at the burns on Luka's arms, my hands trembling.

The wounds would heal.

But I already knew the damage underneath wouldn't.

"Mom," Luka said quietly, his voice wrecked. "Damian's human. The light can't even hurt him. Why did Father still go for him?"

I bit down on my lip until I tasted blood.

When Luka found out Kaelan was coming back, he was excited for a whole month straight.

The day he first felt his blood instincts stir, he came running to me with his face flushed. "Mom, can all vampires feel their bloodline like this? I felt it — does that mean I'm close to awakening? I want to tell Father when he gets back."

He put on his best training clothes. Spent a month carving a blood-seal stone by hand. Then looked up at me, nervous, and asked:

"Do you think Father will like it?"

"Of course he will," I said. "You're his only son."

But when we went to meet Kaelan at the territory border, he walked out holding Vivienne's hand, Damian at his side.

A human woman. A human boy.

Luka and I stood there and didn't move.

Damian ran over and knocked the blood-seal stone out of Luka's hands.

It hit the ground and split into three pieces.

Kaelan glanced at it and kept walking. "I have no use for that. Head back — I need to get Vivienne and Damian settled in."

He never once looked at Luka.

Every look he gave Damian was full.

I stared at the broken pieces on the ground and closed my eyes.

"I'm sorry, baby. That's on me. From now on — whatever happens — you call for me. I will always come."

After I treated Luka's burns and got him to sleep, his brows were still drawn tight.

"Father... save me..."

He whimpered in his sleep.

Something in my chest twisted and wouldn't let go.

    The Covenant Council opened a formal review of Kaelan's conduct three weeks later.Abandonment of a blood-bonded fledgling during a critical awakening window. Misappropriation of a Dhampir's emergency stabilizing elixir. Prolonged dereliction of territorial governance — four years of records I'd kept showed every gap, every absent signature, every decision that should have been his and had been mine instead.He entered no defense.The Council stripped him of jurisdiction over one third of his territory and placed his remaining lands under a two-year oversight committee. His authority over the elite young bloods compound was dissolved permanently.In three centuries of rule, it had never happened before.He accepted every ruling without appeal.He still came to the border.Not every night. But often enough that Aurora's guards stopped treating it as a threat.He would stand at the outer perimeter for an hour, sometimes two. Never crossing. Never sending word ahead.Then he would leave b

    Aurora's border guards stopped him at the outer perimeter.Four of them, armed with concentrated UV emitters — the kind used against vampires who don't respond to verbal warnings."Turn around," the senior guard said. "Standing orders. No exceptions, regardless of rank.""I know," Kaelan said. "I'm not here to fight."He kept walking.The first UV blast hit his left arm and burned deep. He didn't stop. By the time he reached the inner border he had burns across both arms and along his jaw.He went down on one knee outside the healing wing.He was still there when I came out.I looked at him for a long moment. His burned arms. His ruined coat. Three centuries of pride on its knees on someone else's stone floor."I know the truth," he said. "All of it. Vivienne set that night up. She paid someone to dose my drink and make sure you were there. She'd known about the bond for years and she used it." His voice wasn't steady. "You saved my life that night. You recognized what had been done to

    It took him three days to pull the records together.Every entry log from the night of the gathering. Every purchase record from the weeks before. Every movement, every communication, every transaction that could be traced.Three days. Every thread led back to the same place.Vivienne.She'd been there that night. She'd had access to his drink. She'd been tracking the fated bond for years — knew exactly what it was, knew what would happen if his defenses came down at the right moment.She hadn't been trying to bring them together. She'd wanted him to wake up believing I'd engineered the whole thing.She'd known his pride would do the rest.And it had.For four years, his pride had run exactly the way she'd designed it to.She hadn't counted on me staying.She hadn't counted on Luka.When that stopped being enough, she came back in person.He confronted her the night he finished putting it together.The evidence laid out on the table between them. Purchase records. Entry logs. A stateme

    Meanwhile, Kaelan had just watched the last firework fade from the sky.Vivienne had worn herself out and was sleeping on the settee, Damian curled beside her.Something felt off in his chest.Not the muffled quiet of a blocked connection. Something different. Something permanent.He sat with it for a moment, not moving.Then he thought about the call.My voice, from hours ago: Luka is surging. He needs the elixir. Please.He'd told me to figure it out. He'd told himself I was exaggerating, that I was using Luka to pull him back, that I always landed on my feet and this time would be no different. He'd hung up and gone back to the fireworks.He picked up his phone.Called my number.The line was dead.He reached through the blood bond.Void.Not a block. Not distance. A permanent, irrevocable severance — the kind that only happened one way.He was on his feet before the thought finished forming.He reached Luka's room before dawn.The bed was made. Perfectly, carefully made. The traini

    Three days before we were supposed to leave, Luka collapsed.I was in the middle of reviewing the territory's monthly blood supply allocation — the same administrative work I'd been doing alone for four years, the work that kept this city running while its Prince was away — when I heard the crash from his room.He was on the floor when I got there.Eyes bled full red, pupils blown wide, blood instincts surging without warning. His body was trembling, bones shifting beneath the skin. The awakening was pushing forward ahead of schedule, violent and uncontrolled.A blood surge. The most dangerous phase of a fledgling's awakening.Without a stabilizing elixir, the surge would burn through his nervous system. I'd seen it happen to older, stronger fledglings than Luka."Mom—" His voice came out wrong. Too low. Not his."I'm here." I dropped beside him. "I'm right here. Don't fight it."I ran to the safe.I'd purchased the stabilizing elixir three months ago. It had cost more than most vampir

    That evening, Kaelan came home early.He stood in the doorway of Luka's room, taking in the empty medicine vials on the nightstand, the fresh bandaging on Luka's arms, the dark circles under my eyes.Something shifted in his expression. Not guilt. Just a flicker of discomfort, quickly smoothed over."I cleared my schedule tomorrow," he said. "Thought the three of us could do something."Luka was awake. He heard every word.He looked at his father from the bed and said nothing.Kaelan tried again. "I could walk you through some advanced drills. Techniques most fledglings don't get access to until much later."Luka's voice was flat. "Mom trains me."Kaelan blinked. "I know, but I could—""She's been training me since I could stand up," Luka said, eyes still on the ceiling. "That's four years. The whole time you were gone. I have her. That's enough. It always has been."The room went quiet.Kaelan's hand dropped to his side.I stood in the doorway and didn't say anything.Luka said it wit
