Lucian was born to two things: a title and a wife. His lifelong friend Josephine was raised alongside him for that single purpose - to one day become his marchioness. They marry young, as everyone always knew they would, and theirs is a strong and steady love. He is also the son his father has always hated. After he embarrasses the family for the last time, his father sends him away to France for "training." It is not training. It is punishment. Years later he returns to England a different man, summoned back to claim the title after his father's death. He is the Marquess now. He comes home to his warm house and to Josephine waiting, his future laid out exactly as it was written for him. But something follows him back from France. It is dark and patient, and it changes his life and his path forever. What was meant to be a life of duty becomes a slow unraveling of blood, of hunger, of control, and Lucian must learn what kind of monster a prince is allowed to become. I DID IT I finished my final and most intimidating vampire prequel/origin story today. Just finishing some quick edits, then formating which does not take long
