The Blood Ledger’s Favorite Heir
My sister and I were chosen by the Blood Ledger on the same night.
In our first life, Lydia chose beauty. I chose genius.
She became the most desired girl in the vampire courts, but the Glamour Gift came with one condition. She had to win true devotion before the deadline.
She failed.
Men wanted her face. They wanted her body. They wanted to show her off like a rare jewel. But none of them loved her.
When the Blood Ledger took her beauty back, Lydia lost everything.
I became the youngest scholar in the Night Academy, solved forbidden blood theories, and caught the eye of Adrian Blackthorne, heir to the oldest vampire house.
So Lydia killed me.
She trapped me beneath the sunrise and smiled as I burned.
When I opened my eyes again, we were sixteen, standing before the Blood Ledger once more.
This time, Lydia stole the Scholar Gift before I could speak.
“Now I’ll be the genius everyone worships,” she said. “You can have beauty this time.”
Poor Lydia.
She thought she had stolen my future.
What she didn’t understand was that every blessing in this world had already been marked with a price.
