A rumor has persisted in the vampire world of a dark slayer—a woman—who travels with a wolf pack and strikes terror into the hearts of the vampires. Mysterious, elusive, and seemingly impossible to kill, she is the one hunter who instills fear in the undead.

Ivory Malinov is that woman, betrayed by her own people, her family, and everyone she held dear. She hunts during the night with only her pack to sustain her sanity. For a hundred years, she has not spoken to or been with any other person except to feed or slay.

One night, she stumbles across a body on her way back to her lair and discovers her lifemate. He is Razvan, branded a hated criminal, detested, feared, and loathed by all Carpathians. He is also a dragonseeker of one of the greatest Carpathian lineages.

Held captive nearly his entire life by his grandfather, the Carpathians' bitterest enemy, he is seeking the dawn to end his terrible existence. Instead, he finds his deliverance in Ivory.

This is a story of two people, horribly betrayed and wounded in spirit, fighters to the death, who must struggle to unite against a common enemy.
