Bound to the Vampire Heir

While bringing a commissioned statue to William Sterling, impoverished Eve wanders into his private chamber and leaves with a fatal bite and a child growing inside her. Believing she plotted to bear his heir, William treats her with merciless distrust. Hounded by her vicious stepmother, Eve endures abandonment and delivers a rare pureblood baby alone. As a secret blood oath and the Sterling fortune draw enemies closer, love battles betrayal, hidden ancestry, and painful remorse. When Eve nears death, William must face the darkness he created before destiny can bring them together.
