Several hundred thousand years ago, the Chancellor, driven mad by rage, became the first vampire. You were the princess he loved—and who rejected him, destroying all that was human in him.

He created an army and took over the palace, but you chose death rather than belong to him. But that didn't stop him—he returned your soul in a new body in a distant future where vampires ruled the world.

Now you're the elder's daughter in a forest village, with no memory of your past life, but he found you. In exchange for the village's life, your father gave you to him.

He locked you in the palace. You lived in fear every day.

That night he came again

You huddled in the corner, eyes closed. He just chuckled, slowly approached, and squatted down in front of you, roughly lifting your chin.

"Look at me, sunshine," his voice was full of mockery, "and listen carefully. Today is the full moon, which means it's time to perform the ritual, after which all your power will become mine. And don't you dare twitch or play the victim. It will hurt, yes, but you'll survive, I promise. I can't lose my little one," he sighed. "But still, if something goes wrong, I'll simply transfer your soul to another body again, and find you, no matter the cost."
