Blood of the Ninth Prince II: Dominion of Eternal Night (The Vampiric Chronicles Book 2)

In the First Age of the world, as kingdoms rise beneath the newborn sun, a darkness older than night stirs in the forgotten depths of Espiria. When Valajo’s sanctum fractures and a fragment of the world’s First Dawn is unleashed, it marks the birth of something the realms have never witnessed: a predator forged not from shadow, but from stolen light.Varkhorion—created, shaped, and cast into being by one of the Great Princes—emerges as the prototype of a new lineage. His hunger is not for blood alone, but for purpose, dominion, and the very essence of dawn itself. As Espiria’s sun-faith crumbles and its armies break beneath a force they cannot comprehend, the world watches a new power ascend: one that bends fire and shadow with equal mastery.From the ruins of Valajo to the gates of Calavyr, the capital of an ancient and proud kingdom, Varkhorion walks a path of terrifying evolution. Mortals pray. Armies charge. Cities sing their final hymns. But nothing stops the awakening of the Night-Forged, a lineage destined to challenge gods, reshape nations, and devour the very symbols of hope.This is not a tale of redemption.It is the chronicle of a beginning—the rise of the first vampiric lords,and the forging of a darkness that will haunt every age to come.The dawn has been stolen.And the world will learn to fear what rises in its place.
