Brixton isn’t like the rest of his kind—bloodthirsty, cruel, and reckless. He's powerful, calculating, and terribly bored. For centuries, he’s watched humans make fools of themselves, disgusted by their weakness, pettiness, and stupidity. So when his father, the ancient vampire king, demands that Brixton claim a human slave before the night ends—or have one chosen for him—he's infuriated. He doesn’t want just anyone. He wants someone... different.

From his perch high above the city, Brixton watches the world below with disdain—until a woman catches his eye.

She isn’t afraid. Even when stabbed while protecting a stranger, she dies with a strange kind of strength. She bleeds, yes, but her spirit doesn't falter. And that... that fascinates him.

When Brixton retrieves her dying body, he's stunned by what he discovers in her memories. She’s not just brave—she’s something else entirely. Something forgotten. Something powerful. Something dangerous.

To his father, she’ll be just another slave.
To Brixton, she’s the beginning of an obsession.

But reviving her may come at a cost. And what he doesn’t know is—she may never be the one truly under his control.

Astra never imagined survival would come at such a cost.

Once a girl caught in the brutal tides of clan wars and vampire power struggles, she emerged from the chaos stronger—scarred but unbroken. Determined to reclaim control over her life, she returns to the Esparago Clan, hungry for strength, training under the formidable Abel. With every cut, every bruise, she inches closer to her purpose: to be ready when Brixton Wenz Cardinal—her captor, her curse, and the father of her unborn child—returns.

But fate doesn’t care for plans.

Astra’s secret pregnancy threatens everything. The child growing within her is not just any child—it’s Brixton’s. A potential heir to a vampire throne, a threat to many, and a symbol of forbidden love and bloodshed. She hides the truth, burying her pain beneath sweat and discipline, until Abel uncovers her secret—and the world she’s built begins to crack.

Now forced to stop training, confined to safety, and holding a fragile life within her, Astra faces a darker path than ever before. Danger looms from every corner—especially from the man she once swore to resist.

She carries the vampire heir in her womb.

But can she protect the child from the same world that tried to destroy her?
