The Royal Blood Laboratory had never been this busy. For decades, Gareth had worked almost entirely alone. He had shelves filled with ancient manuscripts, sealed blood samples, dried herbs, animal specimens, and fragments of vampire research gathered from forgotten territories. He had spent centuries trying to understand the nature of vampiric blood. But since Eryx's coronation, his laboratory had become one of the most important places in the kingdom. The new laws had created a problem. The Crown had forbidden the hunting of humans. Human blood could no longer be obtained through raids, forced capture, or illegal trafficking. That was exactly what Eryx wanted. But a kingdom could not survive on good intentions alone. There were thousands of vampires. And every vampire needed blood. The solution had to come from somewhere. That was where Gareth's research began. And unexpectedly, Annesa became one of his most important assistants. --------------------------
