[Revenge in Vein 01] • Burned

"He came for revenge . . . and she was waiting."

For almost two hundred years, the vampire Aldric has waited for a chance to get revenge on the sun goddess, Saule. Once a loyal servant of the sun, he traded his soul for eternal life after his prayers for the goddess to save his village went unanswered. When he receives a letter from the queen of the dark faerie, it seems almost too good to be true. Saule has taken a mortal form and is being held prisoner in the Unseelie Court. The eccentric queen invites him to her sithen, eager to have a front row seat for Aldric’s vengeance.

The sight of a golden-haired mortal Saule, naked and bound in silver chains, is almost too delicious for Aldric to bear. His plan for retribution is as erotic as it is carefully planned. Intent to get every drop of pleasure from the revenge he’s waited so long for, he forgets that the sun in its simplest form is a giant ball of fire. And when you play with fire, you risk getting . . . Burned.
