My name is Ezra Clarke, and I'm twenty-three.Forever.If you're counting in vampire years, I'm actually two-hundred and eight, and if living that long has taught me anything, it's that nothing lasts forever. And that's been fine. It's... whatever. I've never wanted anything that long, anyway, which is why I've never taken a mate, but that all changed when I met Declan Byrne.He's young, handsome, and he doesn't do what I tell him to. He smells like cinnamon and has eyes that remind me of the daytime sky. Every kiss we share feels like home, and no touch lasts long enough.I need him to be mine.And for the briefest moment he is, and life is perfect... and then it isn't. Rogue vampires threaten to pull us apart, and complicated politics are painful reminders that a world exists beyond our privacy of our bedroom.But if anyone thinks they can keep me away from Declan, they have another thing coming. My mate and I have a thousand lifetimes to live, and we're just getting started.
