Delivering a heavy bronze artwork into a nocturnal mansion, destitute courier Eve inadvertently steps into the darkened chamber of William, an ancient vampire nobleman.

As clan enemies target Eve to steal her newborn's bloodline rights, William must overcome his deep-seated paranoia before a lethal poisoning claims the only mortal capable of surviving his touch.
