She woke up immortal. They woke up afraid. Seventeen-year-old Kaia Monroe had a perfectly ordinary life-until the night she drowned... and came back. Now cursed with a bloodline older than any vampire, Kaia is drawn into a secret war between pureblood vampires, rogue hybrids, and ancient hunters sworn to destroy them all. At Midvale Academy, a school for supernatural legacies hidden in plain sight, Kaia must uncover her forgotten past, survive new enemies, and resist the pull of a dangerously charming vampire prince who knows more about her than he admits. But the deeper Kaia dives into her powers, the more she learns: she didn't just wake up a vampire-she was born one. And the Crimson Oath she carries? It might be the end of them all.

Chapter 1 The Drowning Moon

The last thing Kaia Monroe remembered before everything changed was the cold. Not the kind of cold you shake off with blankets or breath into your hands to chase away. This cold sank in bone-deep - a strange stillness in the lake, the way the air had stilled when she stepped off the dock, as if the entire night had held its breath.

Then, silence.

Then, water.

She drowned, or at least she should have. But she didn't die.

She woke up gasping on the rocks, her skin pale as frost and eyes burning like coals. Her pulse didn't return. Her breath never warmed. And when she looked in the water, the girl staring back wasn't the one who had gone in.

Kaia Monroe was no longer human.

It had been three days since the accident - or resurrection, if she dared to name it. She hadn't told anyone. Not her older brother, not her best friend Raine, not the school counselor who'd phoned her that morning about missing classes again.

She didn't know how to explain that she hadn't slept, hadn't eaten, hadn't blinked without hearing everything - the whisper of the neighbor's cat across the street, the stretch of tree bark in the forest, the thrum of blood in veins that weren't her own.

Something had happened in that lake.

Something ancient. Something waiting.

"You're late," Raine said, her voice half-sharp, half-worried, when Kaia finally showed up at their usual rooftop hideout behind the Midvale train station. "Again."

"I was... out walking," Kaia lied, sitting gingerly on the rusted fire escape.

Raine studied her. "You look like a ghost."

Kaia looked away. "I feel like one."

That part was true. Every light felt too bright. Every noise too loud. And worst of all - she could smell things. Blood. Sweat. The sugar in Raine's breath from the iced tea she'd just sipped.

She was changing. And she was terrified.

That night, Kaia stood alone beneath the broken moonlight in her backyard, staring at her reflection in the window. Her pupils were rimmed with red. Her breath fogged the glass for a second - then vanished.

A rustle in the tree line.

She turned.

A boy stood at the edge of the woods, half in shadow, dark-eyed and watching her like he already knew her secrets.

"Who are you?" she called out, her voice steady but her heart (if it still beat) stumbling.

He stepped forward. "Someone who's been waiting a long time for you to wake up, Kaia."

She froze. "How do you know my name?"

His lips curled into something too ancient to be called a smile. "Because you're not the first. And if you don't start running, you won't be the last."
