To pay off her father’s gambling debts, human girl Leah is sold to a vampire castle to become the blood count’s blood slave. She expects to be drained of her lifeblood like all the other maidens—yet the moment she steps foot inside the castle, she is stunned. The cold count Theodore seated upon the throne is none other than her betrothed lover, who vanished abruptly shortly after they exchanged their engagement vows months ago.
Her once tender and devoted fiancé has turned into a ruthless vampire who rules the night. Fear and resistance well up within Leah. Theodore swears he will never harm her. But in a world where humans exist merely as prey, can his oath truly be trusted?
The arrogant and unhinged vampire noble Lenoir, however, will never stand for a lowly human seizing what he believes is rightfully his. Humiliation and schemes rain down on Leah one after another. Meanwhile, she slowly realises: the harder she tries to flee this dangerous vampire, the more powerless she is to resist the wild, burning love in his eyes.
When desire intertwines with blood, will she run from the monster… or become his eternal bride?
