Vera, a mixed‑blood girl, was abused as a cursed outcast by her hunter clan. The only warmth she ever knew came from Kyle. Under the pretense of border garrison duty, the Hunter Alliance offered Kyle to the vampires as a blood servant. He perished in the brutal clash between vampires and werewolves.
Learning the truth, Vera drinks her mother’s Daywalker blood to gain sunlight‑resistant powers. She infiltrates the vampire castle to embark on a cold, long‑drawn revenge.
Pretending to be gentle and compliant, she schemes relentlessly. She manipulates Lord Adrian’s possessive obsession, the werewolf heir Lorn’s genuine affection, and deep‑seated feuds among factions, pitting vampires, werewolves and hunters against one another. She personally executes Angus, Samuel, Isabella, Glen, Adrian and Lorn to avenge Kyle.
Yet vengeance cannot bring Kyle back. Stripped of her driving hatred, Vera lies down beside Kyle’s cenotaph and drifts into eternal slumber beneath the sun — a tragic tale born of love, ending in ruin.
