“I hate you.” I force my head up until I'm glaring into those green eyes. “I. Hate. You.”
For the briefest moment, something shifts in those dead eyes, but it's gone before I can decide whether I imagined it.
And maybe I did. Maybe I'm just desperate for proof that I'd gotten under his skin.
He looks down at me, and all I see is that same cold expression.
No. I imagined it. My fists. My words. My hatred. None of it reached him. Nothing I ever do will be enough to reach whatever is left of him.
“Are you finished?”

Eira Vale has spent her entire life hunting vampires. Becoming one of their prisoners was never part of the plan.
Captured by Kaine Wroth—the ancient vampire feared by both humans and his own kind—Eira is dragged into a world where escape seems impossible. Worse, the mark he leaves on her neck convinces his household that she isn't a captive at all...
They believe she's his future queen.
Forced to play along to stay alive, Eira searches for a way out while plotting Kaine's death. But the longer she remains in his manor, the more impossible Kaine becomes to understand. He doesn't want her blood. He wants something else—something he believes only she can give him.
And if he's right... everything Eira believes about herself is a lie.
