Hunted by both vampires and humans, a young immortal struggles to remain herself in a world that sees her as either a weapon or a monster. Maris never asked for immortality. A single act bound her to a world of psychic vampires, endless hunger, and supernatural conflict. The one responsible was Anastasia-her sire, her mentor, and once the most important person in her life. For years, Maris believed she owed Anastasia everything.
After all, she had been given power, immortality, and a place in a world hidden from ordinary humans. But every gift came with a price, and Maris has spent years living with the consequences. Now vampires hunt her, while powerful human organizations seek to use her as a weapon against her own kind. To some, she is a threat. To others, she is a tool. Few care what she wants. Caught between monsters, hunters, and the legacy of the woman who changed her life forever, Maris struggles to hold on to her identity in a world determined to define her.
Maris is a dark urban fantasy novella set in the world of the Deamhan Chronicles, exploring survival, loyalty, and the cost of becoming something other than human.
