Family Ties and Vampire Lies

What’s worse than being a vampire? Being a vampire with a hostage problem.
I wanted to protect my family. Instead, I led danger right to their door.
Now, my parents are missing, and the vampires responsible have a simple demand—do what they say, or my family dies. Refusing isn’t an option, but playing along means proving my worth to a clan I want no part of. If I fail, I lose everything. If I succeed, I lose myself.
The wrong move could turn the vampire council’s attention on me, and that kind of scrutiny is a death sentence. My friends think the safest play is to follow the rules, to let things settle. But keeping quiet has never been my strong suit.
I’ve spent too long being a pawn in someone else’s game. Now, it’s my move.
Fighting back means risking everything—exposing myself, angering the wrong vampires, and making enemies I can’t afford—but if I don’t act now, I might never get another chance.
Trust me, the undead don’t play fair.
