She knows recovering her past will reveal who killed her, but time grows short. Her awakening abilities threaten to restart an ancient cycle of destruction. Nyte struggles to control vampires who thirst for war. His brother schemes to steal his throne, forcing Nyte into a deadly family conflict. Both brothers must decide if they will spill their own blood for power. Astraea and Nyte face an impossible choice. Their love could doom the world to darkness, but neither can walk away.
