Bound by Blood

The silver bullet meant for Ella’s heart tears through Drake instead. As the hunter who swore to exterminate her kind lies dying in the monastery crypt, Ella cuts her wrist and forces her blood between his lips. He wakes bound to the very monster he was sent to kill—and only her blood can keep the silver inside him from consuming him alive. Every touch ignites a forbidden hunger, but Ella knows the truth: she is the half-Darkborn he’s hunting, and the blood pact her mother created means if one of them dies, the other follows. Worse, the Hunter’s Guild has marked Drake for execution, while his jealous ex-fiancée closes in to purge everyone tainted by Ella’s blood. To survive, must Drake betray everything he believes—or kill the woman whose life is now tied to his own?
