The Night Runs Red (Wicked Dark Duology #1)

When Calia Darrow, a descendant of fae royalty, learns she is to be wed to prominent vampyre Rion D'arcy, she accepts her fate-not that she has a choice. With an age-old curse binding their families together in an attempt to balance power, Calia and Rion must marry unless they wish to forfeit their lives.

After a tumultuous ceremony, Calia finds herself isolated in a sprawling gothic mansion with a husband who wants nothing to do with her. When a foiled abduction attempt leaves her vulnerable, Calia sees a glimmer of hope that perhaps there is more to Rion than she thought.

As the blood moon approaches, Calia must face an unknown enemy with only the assistance of the mysterious Rion D'Arcy. Will the truth come to light, or will the night run red with Calia's blood?

The Night Runs Red is a slow-burn Romeo x Juliet retelling with vampires and fae, an arranged marriage, found family, and forced proximity.
