Two warring vampire families must set aside their differences to solve the disturbing mystery of a cursed house.

No one has been able to set foot in the D’Arcy family’s ancestral home for the last twenty years. The family was forced to relocate, and the only place they could find was close to their rival family, the Kanes. Proximity and years of anger have brought the situation to a boiling point, and it’s only so long before all-out war ensues.

As a last attempt at peace, the Kane patriarch sends the witch Elio to help one of the D’Arcy sons try to unravel the house’s mysteries. The only problem? Elio and Valerian D’Arcy hate each other. Years of mediating for their families have left them embroiled in a bitter rivalry, and unable to trust each other.

Elio only accepted the offer because his real mission is to find any vulnerability in the D’Arcy family to exploit. Finding a weakness in Valerian should be easy, but Elio’s priorities shift to survival as the house traps them inside and starts playing deadly tricks on them.

Elio and Valerian must rely on each other as the house tests them and drives them closer than either one of them could have imagined. As they face threats neither one of them could have imagined, Elio and Valerian become entangled in deadly desires with dire consequences. Their relationship will be changed forever, if they make it out alive.
