Protected by the Shadows The Drosera Legacy, Book 1, (Paperback)

As enforcer to the vampire King, Ryon is duty-bound to follow orders. When the human woman he loves becomes a target, who will he be forced to kill?

A Legacy built on secrets.

Ryon has no memory of his life as a human - being made and not born did that to a Vampire. As an enforcer to the Vampire King, it was his duty not to ask questions. When the King declares war on the humans of Ladwick, Ryon suppresses the voice of his conscience to follow orders. Amid the chaos, he meets a captivating human woman called Laina. Fragments of a past shrouded in secrecy come to the surface, and Ryon finds himself caught between his loyalty to the crown, his desire to protect Laina and the ever-growing feeling that he was made to do something else. Be someone else

Laina was caught under a veil of darkness after abruptly losing her parents six months ago. Locals believed their deaths were the work of Vampires, but that was impossible - because Vampires didn't exist. She couldn't bring herself to believe the rumours, but when bodies began showing up with the same tell-tale wounds as found on her parents, she couldn't help but question what she knew. Then one night, she met Ryon. He was mysterious, handsome, and endearing. And he was also the one thing she never knew existed. A Vampire.
