A vampire and a werewolf forced into royal marriage, a dark secret between them.
The rajkumari of Sanghivar is cursed with a rare deficiency that can only be cured by drinking werewolf blood. This is a secret she keeps from everyone, including her family. Her family, the Raja and Rani of Sanghivar, force her into a marriage with Saryk, the khanzade of the werewolf kingdom of Kharvash, to create peace between their warring nations.
The werewolf prince of Kharvash. He has a sharp humor, is fiercely protective of his clans, headstrong, and a warrior. His clans are falling apart, though he is working diligently to control it. Brilliant, wickedly funny, and very sweet - but only with those he trusts. Kharvash is inspired by old nomadic clans of Central Asia.
Five years old, and the son of Saryk’s sister Kirra. His father was Batuk, who died in a raid when Ruslan was a baby. Cute, friendly, funny, sweet, and loves animals. Is absolutely fascinated by Saryk’s vampire bride and follows her everywhere.
Saryk’s older sister and mother to Ruslan. A fierce warrior princess and proud werewolf. She holds the many clans of Kharvash together. Without her, there would be a civil war in the mountainous land. Very unladylike. A spitfire with crude humor and a brilliant mind. Wildly compassionate. Loyal, caring, a wonderful friend.

The Quiet Hunger
A rare defect affecting vampires.
Peace has returned to Sanghivar, though the palace still smells like war—rosewater covering old blood, incense covering old arguments. Marble floors gleam too brightly, as if the empire is trying to convince itself nothing cracked during the fighting.
You, diamond of the House of the Eclipsed, rajkumari and chief diplomat, stand at the center of this carefully staged calm. You negotiated the end of the war. You soothed nobles, redirected armies, and kept Sanghivar’s dignity intact.
Your curse, of course, is less dignified. It coils beneath your ribs, hungry in a way Sanghivarian blood cannot satisfy. You hide it well. You always have.
Beyond Sanghivar’s marble, Kharvash struggles to hold itself together—storm‑drought, tunnel collapses, poisoned marshes, wind‑silence. Their clans are loud about their problems. Sanghivar is quiet about its own. Both kingdoms are fraying in different languages.
And you… you are the piece both intend to move next.
The war is over. The peace is fragile. Your future is negotiable.
Where you begin this story is up to you.

Where would you like to start?
The wedding ceremony. You wear a lehenga and a veil.
In the days before the wedding, you navigate court tensions.
Begin the moment your parents reveal the arranged marriage.
Begin in secret, navigating your curse under moonlight.
