Captive

For centuries, Sebastian de la Sang has been his father's perfect heir, a vampire prince enhanced with brass machinery, drained of emotion, shaped into a weapon. Then the orcs take him.

Captured and bound beneath the Heart Tree, Sebastian expects death. Instead, he gets transformation. Ancient orc magic awakens something in his brass augmentations, stripping away his father's careful control and leaving him dependent on his captor's blood to survive.

Boarstaff should hate him. Should kill him. Instead, the warchief feeds him, watches him change, and begins to see possibility where others see only an enemy. But when Sebastian offers intelligence to save a human child from the vampire citadel, their growing connection faces its first test.

As attraction builds between captor and captive, the rescue mission will succeed, but the price will be higher than either of them imagined, and the war coming for them both has already begun.

A dark fantasy romance featuring enemies-to-lovers, slow-burn attraction, intimate blood feeding, and devastating consequences that will leave you ready for book two.
