Temple of the Heart

In ancient Atlantis, magic is the foundation that helped to raise the greatest civilization in the world. Yet it is feared and tightly controlled.

 As a vampire, Niko is part of a despised minority and must wear a visible mark to identify his nature. Many places in the city are forbidden to him.

 Temple dancer Laila lives within a sheltered world of women. She and her fellow priestesses haven't seen a male or ventured outside the temple walls since infancy.

 Even a glimpse of a man through an attic vent is reason for punishment. And when that man happens to be a vampire, the consequences of Laila's action may be dire indeed.
