Betrayed by his own werewolf clan and left to die in a forbidden vampire crypt, Lucien Drake awakens something ancient—something monstrous.

His blood ignites the Crimson System, binding him to a long-lost vampire bloodline rumored to be more powerful than the vampire lords and deadlier than any alpha.

Now reborn as a hybrid of vampire and werewolf, Lucien gains powers no being should wield. The System whispers, hungers, and rewards him for one thing: domination—of bloodlines, enemies, and women.

With every kill, he evolves. With every seduction, his power multiplies. And with every conquest, the world bends closer to its knees.

But ancient forces stir. Vampire princesses, werewolf queens, and dark priestesses all want him… dead, bound, or in their bed.

In a world where the strong rule by blood, Lucien is rewriting the laws of nature—and he'll either claim the throne of night...
Or drown the world in crimson fire.

The chamber, once a grand mausoleum for vampire kings, was now a graveyard of rubble, its walls scarred and its ceiling cracked from the battle with the Bone Dragon.
