Cora is unique among the vampires in Gray Vale. She is half fae. She has a beating heart. And she can bring life to the vampires around her, allowing them the ability to die when they desire it rather than being cursed with the same dreadful existence for eternity. Cora’s gift makes available this “death by desire” that is prized in the vampire world. Offering life to vampires is a beautiful gift, but it can also be used as a weapon. And that is what the royal family of vampires wishes to do. With no other choice, she must marry into the royal family for protection from those who are threatened by her ability. But when a “pet” lycan is gifted to her who is her true mate, will she find a way to break off the engagement, threatening her family and everyone else she loves in the process? Can her mate's lycan pack possibly win against the vampires who do not want to part with her? Or will they be forced apart? Published exclusively on Webnovel.

Theo pulled Cora gently into the house through the back door and slid it closed, silently cursing the place for not having a drape or something to cover the glass that looked out on the forest. If the moonlight could shine inside, wouldn't it still affect them? Or was the ritual in the air? Was it out in the forest air?
"Theo, are you okay?" Cora called behind him.
Her voice sounded curious and a little unsure. He squeezed his eyes shut and braced himself against the glass, hoping that he would not scare her tonight. If the full moon had its way, he might have a more feral edge to his actions than usual.
"Of course. Are you okay?" But once he turned around and saw her flushed and short of breath from the walk, her hair messy and wild, the pulse of that desire to have her quickened, and he stalked forward.
