Groomed to take his place as an Elder, his father's ambitions, not his own, Julian set out to reinvent himself. Learning to fight, to hunt, to track has been very successful for him, but not in his many year quests to find his best friend. Feeling defeated, Julian goes to the one and only home he still has left and discovers new problems within his race as well as a new war brewing. Serina Ferrari was born a bloodmate. She is destined to be mated with a vampire and will suffer greatly if not. Her system isn’t designed for a human life. Her body functions only for a vampire, and without enough nutrition as well as feedings from a vampire, she will die. Her father refuses to accept this fate. He thinks he can cure her and is blind to the suffering she goes through. He takes vampires and even Elders with the hope of finding the cure needed for his daughter. Has no care with how many lives he takes either or how they die. He only wants to save his daughter and kill as many vampires as he can. But when he ends up taking Julian all bets are off and the war that had been brewing starts, not to mention there’s a Guardian tagging along right behind Julian—a legendary protector to the vampire race, and very deadly when crossed. Now the battle is on, but who comes out a victor, or a victim? less

Elders, bloodmates, and vampires are being murdered in mass attacks by mutated breeds. Only three guardians and one elder remain. Dimitri de Fiammetta, a guardian all of his life, knows no other way to live. He’s fought and killed to protect his race. The only family he accepts are those he's fought with, side by side. When the prophet is born many changes come in the midst of a war. While duty to the race comes first and protecting the last Elder and the prophet are his number one missions, one change Dimitri doesn't believe he can handle is the order to test for, find, and bond with his bloodmate. Orders he can resist, but can he fight a link forged in blood no matter how much he believes it is wrong? Claudia Wyborn, a bloodmate taken in and protected after the death of her family, has accepted her new life and the new role she has within the compound of the Guardians. Meeting Dimitri, she’s instantly fascinated by him, awakening a childhood fantasy of being swept away by her vampire, a Guardian, when Guardians had before been forbidden to bond and regarded as something horrible to shun. Will one mission and Dimitri's reluctance to share his dark past with innocent Claudia destroy what their body and minds tell them should be? Or will a simple thing as love be enough to take away the dark stain that Dimitri has carried for so long? BLOODMATES: 1. Julian's Farewell 2. The Guardian's Embrace 3.
