Northern Skies

Elias never wanted to become a vampire. After a frustrating Northern summer learning how to be a proper fledgling, an ultimatum looms: If he can't embrace his new reality, both his place in the coven and his relationship with Dorian are in jeopardy. Elias's grace period is over, and being a valuable member of the coven demands more than skill with his teeth.A clansfolk ambush pulls Elias between his old life as a Maewag clansman and his new one as a Tanarang vampire, and a calamity has more than just Elias seeking sanctuary with the lone benevolent coven of the North. Homeless clansfolk and enemy vampires alike converge in a cramped castle held tightly in the fists of the so-called noble coven, 300 years removed from the sanctuary and charity they once championed.Beyond their mountains stirs a cryptic Southern threat, the likes of which have not been seen since the sun disappeared from the Northern skies. For a vampire is a vampire, a monster that must eat, and they have just the weapon to hit the North where it hurts: their blood slaves.
