A vampire can only resist for so long, before her true nature takes over. Vampires running the world was the new way of life. Stormey Jaymes should probably hate them, but she was always optimistic and believed in fate. Everything happens for a reason. She was used to having nothing, raised as an orphan, with no family, no friends. She desperately wanted someone to need her–cherish her. When her name came up for the draft, she was only too happy to submit her blood sample. Stormey's wish came true. To her amazement, she matched with a powerful vampire–the heir to the vampire throne. Hegna Riskel abhorred the thought of taking a mate. She had yet to forgive the queen for submitting her to the wretched draft. The heir to the throne had much riding on her shoulders. With the impending war with the Lycans, a mate was not something she wanted to deal with. No matter how beautiful her mate was or how her smile lit up the room, Hegna could not fall for her human. Even if the bond was pulling her to the female–she would resist. But when her mate's life was threatened, her primal instincts took over.
