Bloodbound: The Unwanted Outcast And Her Vampire Mates

Maisa Everheart was raised to kill monsters. As the daughter of the legendary Everheart family, the most feared vampire hunters in history. She grew up learning how to track, weaken, and destroy vampires. Her family’s name is whispered with hatred throughout the vampire world because of the countless vampires they have killed, including nobles and powerful bloodlines. To vampires, the Everheart family is a curse, and to humans, they are heroes. But everything changes when a vampire seeking revenge captures Maisa and turns her into the very creature she was born to eliminate. Now Maisa has only one choice: disappear. With the help of her aunt, who has always kept out of the family business, Maisa uses a different identity and enters Veris vampire academy. She must hide her last name, suppress her hunter instincts, and pretend she is just another newly turned Red Blood in the academy. If the vampires discover she is an Everheart, they will execute her, and if her family discovers what she has become, they will be the ones to put a stake through her heart. Surrounded by enemies, Maisa expects hatred. She does not expect her heart to awaken. On her first day, she zings with four vampires from the highest bloodlines: Varitreya Vancrest, a white blood princess who comes from a family nearly destroyed by the Everheart hunters. Adessa Challan, a black blood heir whose ancestors were hunted by Maisa's family. Lumi Ashbourne, a blue blood genius who knows every vampire death recorded in history. Including the Everheart massacres. Her father was killed by Maisa's mother. Zolani Mortensen, a mixed blood, born of human and vampire who understands what it means to be rejected by both worlds. She is the first to accept Maisa because she understands her. Unknown to her, her sister was Maisa's first kill. They were raised to hate humans. They were raised to hate hunters. They were raised to hate the Everheart name, but fate chose her for them anyway. Now Maisa must navigate vampire politics, dangerous bonds, and the guilt of being loved by the very beings her family taught her to destroy and whose families her family destroyed in one way or another. Because the biggest secret at Veris Academy isn’t that a human became a vampire. It’s that the vampire everyone wants to protect… is the daughter of the person who hurt them most whose hands are also tainted with vampire blood.
