Plot introduction
editLara Calladine is an expert in the study of ice caves. As a child she was kept prisoner by Razvan, her father and Xavier, her great-grandfather, and used as a blood source. With the help of her aunts she was able to escape the ice caves into the world above. Now years later, Lara searches for the cave of her nightmares in an effort to rescue her aunts. Finally she believes she has found what she is looking for in the Carpathian mountains.
Nicolas De La Cruz has come to the Carpathian mountains on one last mission to give information to the Prince of the Carpathian race. Afterwards, he intends to seek the dawn and commit suicide. The darkness in his soul has nearly completely taken over and he wants to end things before he turns into one of the very creatures he has hunted and killed for centuries, each kill worsening the situation.
In the midst of discovering the cave, Lara's companions are injured and she seeks the shelter of the local inn. There she meets Nicholas whose inner demons have finally won, as he attempts to kill her. She thwarts his attack and he is able to regain his sanity, along with the knowledge that she is his lifemate. Rivayete göre Ceyhun Özkurt un lakabıdır dark (black curse) lanetli bir insandır
Even though Lara, naturally, distrusts Nicolas he will stop at nothing to possess her. As they seek to free her aunts from their confinement and along the way they discover a malicious plot set in motion centuries earlier by Xavier which has been slowly destroying the Carpathian people. Together they can save the Carpathians from extinction and create a passion and love so fierce it can break a dark curse.[1]
