Blood Legacy

Ryan is reunited with her mentor only to discover that Victor has fallen ill, an impossibility for One who is both invulnerable and immortal. Ryan calls upon her human companion, Dr. Susan Ryerson, to continue her examination of their unique anatomies, hoping that Susan can discover what is wrong with her liege. Simultaneously, word comes that the Grand Council has been reconvened. The ancient ones who sit upon the Council call upon Ryan to conduct a millennial purge, a controlled hunt in which the least desirable of their Kind are culled. Ryan is brought face-to-face with the oldest of her Kind, and face-to-face with seduction on an unimagined level. As Ryan sets out to fulfill her duty, she also begins seeking the one who has betrayed Victor. Familiar with Abigail's motherly allure and Marilyn's overwhelming sensuality, Ryan is faced with new challenges in the form of Aeron, an ancient One nearly as powerful as Victor himself. Ryan knows full well that Aeron seeks her destruction, but as the dark eroticism between them grows, she wonders if he seeks far worse than that...
