Wandering through the forest, the vampire Esmina—banished from her home clan—finds a lost girl and decides to take her to people. A sorcerer they meet on the way claims that Esmina is cursed, but he can rid her of the curse. His motives are unclear, but does she even have a choice?
Together they set off for an abandoned royal castle, where many answers are hidden. But new questions—and new desires—appear along the way.
For the first time, Esmina envies simple human happiness, dreaming of feeling love rather than an eternal thirst for blood. Will she be able to become human and trust the one who is clearly not who they pretend to be?
