Chapter 1

In the obsidian spire of Evernight City, my family's ancient castle chapel was packed. The entire vampire society was here to witness my eternal Blood Oath with Alistair."Carys, you have great taste," a noblewoman chuckled, swirling her goblet. "Alistair just secured that crucial purge mission for the Council. It brings glory to the whole clan.""He is truly one of a kind," I maintained a perfect smile, clinking my glass with hers.Honestly, I was sick of playing this game.My clan had the oldest bloodline and unimaginable wealth. Traditionally, we didn't bother with the Council's dirty political games.But Alistair was ambitious. He wanted absolute authority there.To make his dream come true, I broke my clan's rules and used our resources to pave his way.I stood here today to prove to the doubting elders that the man I chose was worth everything."Darling."A familiar, gentle voice came from behind.Alistair walked gracefully to my side. Countless envious eyes fell on us."I'm so h

Looking at Alistair's incredibly fake face, I forced down the nausea churning in my stomach.I had to stop this farce. Now."Alistair," I stepped back, raising my voice slightly. "Since this is an eternal Blood Oath, we need the most ancient witness. Go to the castle's catacombs and fetch the vial of thousand-year holy blood."The elders around us gasped.Thousand-year holy blood. It was my clan's core treasure. Even the high princes of the Council rarely saw it.Greed instantly lit up Alistair's eyes.[Perfect! She's even bringing out the holy blood! The elders will finally see how obsessed Carys is with me. My spot in the Council is secured!]"For you, my love, anything." Alistair bowed perfectly, kissing the back of my hand.[Finally, a chance to be alone with him! I'll show him I'm a hundred times better than that bitch!]Gene stepped forward eagerly."Lord Alistair, the catacombs are dark and slippery, and the vessel is heavy. As your subordinate, I should accompany you."Alistair

"What a wonderful farce."I walked to the center of the crowd, my cold gaze sweeping over the guards on the floor and Gene's bitter face."Carys, don't let him fool you," Alistair hurried over, trying to keep up his fake affectionate mask. "This thin-blood is extremely dangerous. He almost ruined our banquet."I ignored him and raised my right hand."The library holds my clan's most precious ancient scrolls. Did you really think I'd leave it unguarded?"A drop of blood seeped from my fingertip, and I flicked it into the air."The ancient 'Bloodline Recall' spell left by my ancestors never lies."Fueled by magic, a blinding scarlet mist exploded in midair.A massive, crystal-clear memory projection instantly replayed above everyone's heads.In the projection, the three elite guards sneered and drew their holy water daggers.They cornered Silas.The vicious threats, the deadly strikes—every detail, every word echoed clearly in the banquet hall.And Silas only defended himself.The truth

Following my cold declaration, I raised my hand and snapped my fingers.The blood mist in the air violently twisted. The memory projection instantly switched scenes.The dark, slippery catacombs of the castle were broadcasted for everyone to see.In the projection, Alistair had Gene pinned hard against the cold stone wall.They were fucking against the cold stone wall like animals in heat. Clothes half-torn, breathing heavy.The most fatal scene followed immediately.Alistair unhesitatingly bit his own wrist, feeding his blood into Gene's mouth.Gene bit hers too, pressing her wound to Alistair's lips.Drinking each other's blood.This was the ultimate, unforgivable betrayal before a binding. A complete desecration of the eternal Blood Oath.The hall erupted in outrage."Disgusting!""Trading blood with another woman right before the Blood Oath? Cheap bastard!"The nobles gasped in shock, their contemptuous glares piercing the obsidian altar like swords.[No! No! Why would Carys show t

Midnight. Moonlight spilled across the castle courtyard.A tall, lean silhouette leaned against a gargoyle statue.It was Silas.He had changed out of his cheap waiter uniform into a perfectly tailored black shirt.The powerful shadow bloodline pulsed around him. Even the air seemed twisted by his power, exuding a suffocating, lethal charm.Flipping a silver coin, he raised his dark eyes to look at me."A brilliant performance," his voice was a low rumble in the dark. "You are every bit the ally I hoped for, Carys."[Ruthless enough, and smart enough. Compared to that brainless pretty face Gene, this is a truly top-tier prize.]Hearing his thoughts, I chuckled."Ally? Silas, you're currently just a dumped 'thin-blood'."He shrugged carelessly and stepped closer.The dangerous aura of a pureblood Progenitor instantly wrapped around me."Do you want to completely uproot Alistair's power?" He stared into my eyes, his tone filled with naked ambition. "Pull out all his fangs and turn him in

Gene stared at the smuggling ledger, her whole body shaking violently."This is a forgery!" she shrieked, pointing at me. "You faked this to frame me!"I sneered and took a step closer."A forgery? The voodoo stench on this parchment hasn't even faded." I swept a cold look over the low-level servants. "How about we invite the High Council's Heresy Inquisitor over? Let them see for themselves who's been making deals with New Orleans voodoo priests."The servants instantly backed away like she had the plague."I saw her sneaking out in the middle of the night!""She's gonna get us all killed and burned at the stake!"The servants' accusations stabbed at Gene like knives. Her face twisted in pure terror."Bitch! Give me that ledger!"An explosive roar suddenly erupted from the main doors.A haggard Alistair stormed out of the main house.His eyes were bloodshot as he lunged at me, trying to snatch the fatal evidence.I didn't even blink.With a slight twitch of my fingers, a thick whip of

Their painstakingly built status in the Council crumbled in an instant.I stared coldly at the two stray dogs crawling in the dirt, then turned and left without looking back.A few days later.I stood in my castle's potions lab, expertly brewing a cauldron of boiling dragon's blood.The crimson liquid bubbled, radiating thick magical energy.A black night-raven flew through the window and landed on my workstation.In its beak was a black-and-gold invitation.I wiped my hands and picked it up.It was an invitation to the "Crimson Gala."The most exclusive power-broker event for all North American vampire clans.As soon as I touched the wax seal, the dark gold card ignited in midair, and Silas's deep, sexy voice whispered in my ear: "The gala awaits its Queen. Don't keep us waiting."The "Crimson Gala" was held at the Grand Cathedral of Evernight.The highest-tier pureblood nobles were all gathered.Wearing a deep red velvet evening gown, I had barely stepped into the hall when my path w

Chapter 8

This force carried a sickeningly cheap scent.I turned around.Gene stepped out of the shadows.She was covered in wine and cake stains, her expensive dress clinging to her in wrinkled ruins.Her once-flawless makeup was a mess of tears and rage, her eyes bloodshot.She had used her meager magic to lock the door."Is this what you wanted?!" Gene screamed hysterically. "Are you proud of yourself, watching me get treated like filth?!"She glared at me, jealousy and venom practically spilling from her eyes.[Why! Why does she get all the good things?! Silas is a Progenitor Prince, and he still chose her?! I'm going to ruin her face! I'll make her wish she was dead!]Gene let out a shrill screech and threw her hands up.A ball of murky, foul-smelling voodoo necromancy venom formed in her palm and launched straight at my face!She wanted to disfigure me.I sneered.Without even bothering to cast a spell, I simply raised my hand.Smack!My fingers closed around her wrist like a steel trap. M

Six months passed.Since the night of the "Crimson Gala," Evernight City's power map was completely redrawn.I leaned back in the castle study, flipping through intelligence reports.Over the past six months, I used my telepathy to help Silas precisely root out every traitor in the Council.Now, Silas was the supreme ruler of the empire.And I was his sole ally."Lady Carys..."A sickening stench drifted in from the hallway.A few low-level ghouls carried a rotting, makeshift rattan chair, stopping fearfully at my door.Slumped in the chair was a puddle of mud.It was Alistair.He was covered in filth, his once-prized custom suit reduced to dirty rags.The worst part was his legs. The wounds he suffered that night on the altar hadn't been treated with high-grade blood. The holy water had completely corroded them down to the bone."Carys... please..." Alistair struggled to lift his head. "Just a little blood... just a drop... for old times' sake..."He tried to reach for my dress.I sta

Chapter 10

I wore a wedding dress woven inch by inch from moonlight silk by three hundred blind blood-witches over a century.The skirt flowed with silver magic like a galaxy.Silas and I sat on obsidian thrones, swearing the eternal Blood Oath of absolute loyalty.A year later.Deep within the Grand Cathedral, the oldest fertility matrix glowed bright red.Through the most grueling vampire rituals, I gave birth to twins carrying perfectly pure Progenitor bloodlines.The day the news broke, the entire vampire world was shaken.Old Prince Valerius, who had always resented me, personally came to my palace.He brought priceless treasures and even offered a prosperous city as a gift.Sitting high on the throne, I calmly accepted his fealty.As he bowed to kiss the hem of my dress, I heard the proud old man's thoughts.[Her methods are incredibly ruthless. Her intellect is unmatched.][She doubled the entire vampire society's strength in just one year. We old bones are no match for her.][Silas chose
