Claim of Blood (Blood Bound #1)

He was sent to surveil the monster.

He never meant to crave him.

Leo von Rothenburg has always been the obedient son. A hunter from a bloodline older than the Vatican itself, raised to track, report, and destroy. No questions. No hesitation.

Adam Matthews is the prize his family has hunted for centuries: an ancient vampire draped in power, hiding in plain sight behind glass towers and a thousand aliases.

Leo von Rothenburg has always been the obedient son. A hunter from a bloodline older than the Vatican itself, raised to track, report, and destroy. No questions. No hesitation.

Adam Matthews is the prize his family has hunted for centuries: an ancient vampire draped in power, hiding in plain sight behind glass towers and a thousand aliases.

But the moment Adam’s dark gaze meets Leo’s, something inside him shatters. A pull, raw and undeniable, binds them in a connection he thought could never exist.

When Leo’s family suddenly cuts him off and leaves him stranded among their enemies, he doesn’t understand why. All he knows is that the people he trusted most have abandoned him without a word, and he’s alone in a world he was raised to fear, claimed by a creature he was born to kill.

Adam’s possessive touch awakens instincts Leo doesn’t understand—and doesn’t want to. And he isn’t the only one. Lander, a born vampire bound to Adam for centuries, feels the same impossible pull.

No vampire has ever claimed two companions. No hunter has ever survived such a bond. As the solstice approaches, the lines between enemy and lover blur beyond recognition, and Leo must decide what he’s willing to surrender.

His family.

His duty.

Or himself.
