Compelled by Fate — Christa Paige

Vastian is the deadliest warrior prince in the history of the Kan Asma Vampire Council. He'd willingly give his life to follow his revered leader's orders to protect their people, no questions asked. Brutal wars have honed his skills as a ruthless killer while the beast that hides behind a human façade craves vengeance for the infiltration of his homeland. It is all a distraction from what he truly wants.

When the unthinkable happens, and tragedy follows, Vastian must reveal a secret that alters his life forever.

His blood-bound oath to the Council and their the long-held traditions forbid him to uphold the solemn vow he made to save the one female his heart desires but can never have. He can't risk falling in love with Thalia, but he will keep her safe and alive…no matter what.

Because she will die without him.

Vastian is about to wage the biggest battle of his life. If he fails to win this war, it will mean losing her, forever.
