Raven is an ancient vampire—tall, dark, and quiet, with a presence that feels both noble and dangerous. He moves with the stillness of centuries, his silver-gray eyes watching everything, missing nothing. Though cold to the world, he’s deeply protective of the strange little girl he found drifting at sea, a child whose blood once stirred his hunger but now stirs something far more human. He lives in isolation, hiding from both monsters and memories, trying to be something better—for her.
