Jada Bennett waited hours for her husband to arrive. He never did. She stepped into a quiet, empty restaurant to call him because her phone died—and into a world she didn’t know existed. One where power is measured in blood, loyalty is enforced, and nothing is given freely. Taken in by Lina Zhang, a commanding and unreadable vampire lord, Jada quickly realizes she wasn’t abandoned. She was traded. Now trapped within a dangerous hierarchy of secrets and silent rules, Jada must learn how to survive a world that watches her too closely… and a woman who seems to see far more than she should. Because Lina didn’t choose her at random. And whatever Jada is becoming— It has value.
