Protective

Marcus Carter has seen the worst in people. He was a mercenary who had been in a lot of wars and fought for causes he didn't believe in. He survived violence that would have killed most men. But after the fighting stopped, all he wanted was a quiet life, something like peace that he never thought he would have. But at home, peace is a luxury. When the criminal group that killed his team comes back, Marcus has to go back to a world of violence, corruption, and betrayal. He starts to take down the empire that ruined his life with his elite fighting skills and a ruthless desire for revenge. But revenge is just the start. Marcus learns that things aren't as simple as they seem as he gets more and more involved in the city's criminal underbelly. He never thought corruption would go this deep, and in the streets where loyalty is bought and sold, it's hard to tell who is a friend and who is an enemy. In a world where power is the only thing that matters, Marcus has to deal with dangerous alliances, shady people, and the harsh truth of the city. He learns that to stay alive in this harsh world, he has to follow rules that aren't very honorable as he builds his own empire. Marcus will learn that peace is not a place to go; it's a fight that never ends in the harsh city. Will he take over the empire and rule the underworld, or will the harsh reality of the city break him?

"Until the moment death claimed him… and something else awakened." "A system no one can see…" "Quests only he receives…" "Power beyond reason…" "But strength comes at a price." "There are lands cloaked in darkness…" "Gods who watch from beyond…" "And one name they all fear—" "Draco… ruler of the Dark Lands." "This is not the tale of the strongest Hunter…" "Nor of a mortal clinging to survival." "This… is transcendence." "This… is the journey of the Lord Celestial.”

Victory comes with staggering loss, and though the Malcor is driven away, only Aurelius discovers the truth of how to wield their family's sacred crest against the creature. Threatened by the revelation that Aurelius may be the rightful king, the brothers conspire in darkness. They use his beloved, Betrothed Maria, as vengeance to claim the crown. but the plan spirals into tragedy when Maria is brutally killed by the Malcor. Consumed by grief and vengeance, Aurelius hunts the beast alone and slays it, but not before he is bitten and cursed by its dying fang. Aurelius returns to the castle forever changed no longer human, but the first of a new breed of vampire.

A king whose legend will echo through the ages. Thus begins the rise of Aurelius the 1st the last prince of Caerstein, and the first vampire of the North.
