He wanted to be accepted for who he was; a bastard. But the world was a cruel place for bastards, especially in the vampire realm of Eldoria. 

A vampire prince, born a bastard, was a disgrace not only to the royal family but the realm at large. And for that, Gabriel Sinclair grew up in harsh environs within the very castle his brother considered heaven. 

And as if being bastard was not enough wound to scar him and put him miles away from the throne, they made marry a human to seal the treaty between the two warring species. 

*****
Elena Thornhart always dreamt of venturing beyond the walls of Mysthaven. Since childhood, she had been confined in the castle of Mysthaven, safe from the vampire's reach. 

But not everything goes as planned. In an effort to save the nearly extinct human population, Andrian Thornhart, the human king and Elena's brother, offers her as the sacrificial lamb. 

Now Elena must navigate the treacherous Vampire court and royal family and protect her husband from his own kind. 

Little does she know her presence is set to unleash a side of Gabriel Sinclair that he never knew existed, a secret that might set the realm apart or unite it!

A Bastard's Allure

Gabriel had tried to maintain his cool under Brumfort's skin, and for a while, it worked. The sight of Charles laying his hands on Elena stroke a chord of jealousness in him, so great he wished to chop the caucasian's prince hands.

'It's just a dance,' he dismissed it with a thought. But not until prince Charles leaned close, so close he could see Elena feel uncomfortable from where he sat. He whispered something in her ear, which he caught instantly with his vampiric power. So the whitie wanted to take revenge on the Thornhart's by agreeing on this marriage, knowing pretty well what he'd do to El, his wife!

'No one touches what's mine,' he declared in his mind, clenching his fists under the table. The gods must be cruel to present him with such a sight! And as if they had heard his thoughts, the music came to a halt, Elena and Charles offering their bows before resuming to their initial positions.
