For 143 years, hunger has ruled my existence. It never fades, never quiets, never lets me forget what I am. Until the night I meet her and the impossible happens. For the first time since becoming a vampire, the hunger disappears. Now enemies are watching, hunters are circling, and the one human I should stay far away from has become the only thing keeping the monster inside me under control. Keeping her alive isn’t a choice anymore. It’s survival.
