Itana has always known she was something more than human. What? She wasn't sure. Veris, an evil creature of darkness, has stalked her for that very being she's afraid to acknowledge in herself. If she can continue to hide from Veris until her thirtieth birthday, she will be free of his torment forever. But what can she do when the thing she wants the most is the very thing that will bring her into his grasp? Gershon, a born vampire of the Malistoan line, knows Itana is his soul mate. Unfortunately, Gershon's attention opens Pandora's Box. No longer are vampires at the top of the food chain. Gershon has no choice but to uncover Itana's secrets and conquer them, or risk their very existence.
