The Vampire Who Died for Them to See

Daisy, the frail fiancée of the heir to House Moonshadow, is born with severe vampire defects—unable to fly, teleport or hunt, and is long dismissed as a burden by the clan. Yet she repeatedly risks her life, rushing through burning warehouses, poisonous black marshes and deadly forbidden canyons to save her fiancé Alistair, her elder brother Cassius and childhood friend Hector. All her life-saving feats are stolen by Mia, a soft-looking vampire who later frames Daisy for colluding with vampire hunters. On the trial day, Alistair orders the activation of irreversible ancient blood magic to broadcast Daisy’s memories publicly, hoping to expose her alleged crimes. Instead, every selfless sacrifice Daisy endured is laid bare for everyone to witness. The blood magic cannot be halted, and Daisy drains all her life force, passing away on the trial platform the moment the whole truth comes to light. Afterward, Alistair renounces his inheritance and lives alone in the perilous Black Forest guarding Daisy’s corpse for eternal atonement; Cassius overturns the clan’s discriminatory rules against weak vampires and builds an empty grave for Daisy to repent daily; Hector blinds his own left eye that once failed to recognize her kindness, retracing every painful path Daisy walked to live in endless torment. The villain Mia is stripped of all powers and exiled, dying alone in the wild with no one to claim her body. Daisy is gone forever. All those who wronged her spend the rest of their lives making amends, yet they can never earn her forgiveness, trapped in endless, belated remorse for all time.
