King

As a VC Warrior, King has spent a lifetime protecting those who can't defend themselves. Easygoing, fiercely loyal, and deadly when crossed, he's the one you want at your back when the fight turns brutal. Friends love him. Enemies fear him. When someone dares to threaten the ones he cares about, King doesn't just fight; he destroys. But this time, it's not just any fight. Now, it's personal.

Amara Tarvin has spent months trapped in fear, fleeing from unseen enemies lurking in the shadows. When her nephew befriends a VC Warrior, a spark of hope flickers in the darkness—a chance for safety, maybe even freedom. But hope can be dangerous when the ones hunting her will stop at nothing to possess what runs through her veins.

A new threat looms over the VC Warriors and Dark Guardians—Golden Blood. Their enemies have uncovered a sinister truth: these rare humans can be turned into deadly weapons, powerful enough to take down one of their own or . . . save them. The hunt has begun.
