"It is not flesh and blood but the heart which makes us Father and Son." – Johann Schiller

Rune stands at death's edge after years on the streets—until Syrus Valerius, an ancient vampire, steps in to grant him eternal life. Reborn as a fledgling vampire, Rune wrestles with bloodlust, forging an uneasy father–son bond, and confronting the bitter ghosts of his mortal past. To defend their fragile peace from old grudges and looming threats, he must decide how far he is willing to trust—and whether family is truly bound by blood, or by choice.
