He’s going to make me break my number one rule. And possibly lose my job. How dare he? It’s pretty simple, though. Don’t date students. Which is normally easy to stick to. Who wants to date an eighteen-year-old boy? Not me. I much prefer an older man with rough hands that knows what he’s doing. Enter Mr. Evans. A single father billionaire with more time on his plate than he knows what to do with. And the man is brilliant and wickedly delicious. Much to my surprise, he’s quickly becoming my star pupil, which means he gets more of my time than necessary. But I can’t help myself. He’s exactly what I need in my life, in my bed, kissing me at the stroke of midnight… And the best is even though he’s older than me, he’s more than willing to let me teach him a few new tricks. Let's just hope we don't get caught.

Hindi nila inaasahan na mapapatumba nila ang Prinsipe ng mga itim sa pamamagitan ng isang kemikal na magpapatulog nito sa mahabang panahon. Nagkaroon ng pag-asa ang mga puti nang sabihin ng orakulo na may sanggol na magmumula sa kanilang lahi na siyang tuluyang makakagapi sa Prinsipe ng mga itim. Ngunit lingid sa kanilang kaalaman na may natitira pa pa lang mga bampira na nagmula sa lahi ng mga itim na desididong muling pabangonin ang kanilang lahi na matagal nang natutulog sa mahabang panahon. "Hintayin ninyo ang muling pagbangon ng mga itim na siyang tuluyang tutuldok sa inyong lahi." -lalaking nakaitim
