The Vampire
(2022)(The third book in the Fated Mates of the Old World series)
A novel by Veronica Dean
I thought this was the beginning of a life of luxury, now I’m just wondering how I will survive the night.
My whole life I have been training to be a princess. Now the day of my ascension is finally here, and I am about to meet my prince for the first time. All I know is that Azriel Vastarien is one of the fiercest warriors in all of Vaterra. I expected him to greet me with open arms, as excited to meet me as I am him. Instead, I am met with contempt and aggression.
None of this is what I expected. I feel like a lamb surrounded by a wolf pack. There is something wrong with these people, with this castle. The pale, gaunt faces of the royals haunt my dreams; the way they leer at me and lick their lips disquiets me further. I have no one to turn to other than my brooding warrior prince.
He doesn't say it, but I know that underneath his smoldering red gaze, he must feel something for me. Every time we touch, it’s electricity, but I can sense something dark inside him, a secret that is burning a hole in his soul. Could his distance be a way of protecting me? But if so, from what?
I'm terrified of what he might do if I give myself to him, but I'm more terrified of what will happen if I don't.
The Vampire is the third installment of the Fated Mates of the old world series and takes place 100 years after The Minotaur. Find out the fate of the world in this new thrilling and steamy sci-fi romance from Veronica Dean.
Each installment in the Fated Mates of the Old World series contains brave, strong-willed heroines and brooding, possessive alien warriors bound together by exhilarating action and steamy romance. The series is set in a universe where mythological creatures are not only real, they are our overlords. Follow each couple as they navigate this treacherous, often terrifying, world with only each other standing in the way of certain death, or worse.
Each book is full-length and standalone, however, they are best enjoyed when read in order.
No cliffhangers. No cheating. Happy ending guaranteed.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
