Mary Sampson
Lily's POV
Six months.
That was how long I was supposed to remain married to Prince Adrian Veyr before returning to my human life.
I hated vampires.
He hated humans.
Our political marriage should have been simple.
Then my husband put his hand against my chest.
His expression changed.
“You don't have a heartbeat.”
I froze.
Because I had never known that myself.
Within hours, the entire vampire kingdom was hunting me.
I wasn't human.
I was the last surviving daughter of the ancient bloodline vampires had spent centuries trying to destroy.
And according to a forbidden prophecy, my blood could either save the vampire kingdom...
Or bring about its complete destruction.
Adrian was ordered to kill me before the prophecy could come true.
Instead, he hid me.
Now assassins are coming after us, the royal court is turning against him, and someone inside the palace knows exactly who I am.
The more secrets we uncover, the more impossible it becomes to deny what is growing between us.
But there is one final secret Adrian doesn't know.
I wasn't chosen to become his bride.
I was sent into his kingdom for a reason.
And whoever erased my memories expected me to destroy him.
