Still, it didn’t mean I couldn’t find happiness of my own. A partner of my own. I’d tried, but no one compared to the vampire overlord dripping with power and charisma, who I’d endeavored not to notice staring at me across the canopy. Maybe I should try again. Seeing the utter joy between Isadora and Devraj made me want to find my someone. One who wouldn’t erase my will altogether and endanger my family and community.
