VERONICA NIGHT
The After Midnight Series
“Let me go,” I said softly, taking a step back.
I knew I shouldn’t have joined the hunt, but it was the only way I had a chance of winning that prize money. It was the only way I could make sure my baby sister didn’t starve to death. It was the only option we had left to survive.
The creature in front of me looked like a man, but I knew better as I watched his obsidian-black eyes study me.
“Now, why would I do that? You lost,” he said, taking a step forward.
I moved back and shook my head. “Stop right there, or I will!” I said, pointing my dagger at him.
He paused for a second. “You will what? Kill me?” He smirked before grabbing my hand and pulling me towards him until I stood right in front of him. “Have you ever killed a Demon King before?”
My breathing quickened as I realized you couldn’t possibly kill something that was already dead.
Veronica is twenty-six-years-old struggling to survive on a planet ruled by vampires and other creatures of the night. Since her father’s death a month ago, she has struggled to find food or work while protecting her little sister. Thats the life she grew accustomed to after the death of her parents.
With no other options, she joins the royal hunting games, where losers become slaves and the winner receives a million coins, enough to start a new life in another land.
The royals usually watch from a distance, placing bets as humans fight for their lives. But Veronica never expects the Demon King himself to join the hunt, let alone take such an interest in her.
When she loses, he claims her as his personal slave.
