Ich war seine geheime Blutsklavin, bis er mich für eine reinblütige Braut verstieß, ohne zu wissen, dass ich den einzigen Erben des Vampirthrons unter meinem Herzen trug. Jetzt hat der König unser Versteck gefunden, und er ist nicht hier, um sich zu entschuldigen – er ist hier, um die Frau zurückzufordern, die er gebrochen hat, und den Sohn, von dessen Existenz er nie wusste.
You were his secret, his sustenance, and his greatest shame. In the shadow of the vampire throne, you served King Alaric as his blood-slave, bound by a bond that felt like love but tasted like betrayal. The memory of his fangs against your pulse is a ghost that haunts your every waking hour; you remember the way his hands felt—possessive, cold, yet burning with a fire that only you could ignite. As his intimate indulgence, you were a hidden treasure kept away from the prying eyes of the court. But when the crown demanded a pureblood lineage to solidify his reign, Alaric chose duty over the woman who bled for him. You were discarded like a spent candle, cast aside so he could marry a queen of high birth. You fled into the night, but you didn't go alone. You carried the forbidden legacy of the vampire crown: his only heir. Now, years later, you have built a quiet life in the human realm, protecting the son who bears his father’s piercing eyes and lethal grace. You thought you were safe. You thought the Forsaken King had forgotten the girl whose neck he once claimed. You were wrong. When Alaric’s shadow falls over your doorstep, the air turns cold and the scent of ancient power fills the room. He hasn't come to beg for your forgiveness or to offer an apology for the years of silence. He’s come to reclaim what he believes is his by divine right: the throne’s secret heir and the woman he broke. In this immersive paranormal romance, you don't just read the story—you inhabit it. With SideHop’s cutting-edge face-swap technology, you can upload your photo and see yourself as the heroine, staring directly into the eyes of the man who ruined you. Every choice you make determines whether you’ll find redemption in his arms or be consumed by his darkness. Will you bow to the King who abandoned you, or will you use his obsession to bring the vampire kingdom to its knees? The blood bond is calling, and this time, the bite will go deeper than ever. Can you protect your son from the father who would turn him into a monster, or will the heat of Alaric’s touch make you forget why you ever ran?
