I love Aria – she’s brave, defiant and proud, passionate and deeply caring for her people and their plight. “She found herself wanting to trust him, wanting to like him even.Īnd she knew that was a very hazardous thing to do.” But as they find their way around each other, and get to know each other, not only do they start to question all they had been raised to believe, but a bond begins to grow, and feelings start to develop. He has never had a blood slave before, and he doesn’t particularly want one now, he just knows that there is something special about her, and he needs to keep her safe, and keep her close.įrom completely opposite worlds, Arianna and Braith each represent everything that the other hates. Vampires were monsters, they destroyed humans, used them and abused them before tossing them away, but this creature was an enigma that she couldn’t even begin to fathom.”īraith has no idea why he claimed Arianna. “She began to shake, unable to understand this strange creature before her. Assuming she is to be abused and then killed, Arianna is shocked when Braith makes no demands on her, instead installing her within his rooms in the palace, and treating her well. To her horror, she is claimed by a powerful vampire, Braith, who just happens to be a Prince and next in line for the vampire throne. Daughter of the rebel leader, Arianna finds herself captured by vampires during a raid and taken to be either bled out and killed, or worse, taken as a blood slave to the highest bidder to be used in whatever way until her master tires of her. The only humans who don’t serve them are part of a resistance movement, based in the woods and continuing to fight for human freedom. Set 100 years after vampires became tired of living in the shadows and outed themselves in a bloody and brutal war against humans, vampires are now in charge, with the human race enslaved to them.
