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

It was a school day but Kaia Monroe was not at school again, the last thing Kaia Monroe remembered before everything changed was the cold. Not the kind of cold that goes away with blankets or warmth by breathing into your hands. This cold sank deep into her bones , a strange stillness in the lake, the way the air itself seemed to hold its breath when she stepped off the dock.

Then, silence.

Then, water.

She drowned. Or at least, she should have.

But she didn't die.

She woke gasping on the rocks, skin pale as frosty iceberg, eyes burning like hot coals. Her pulse never returned. Her breath never warmed. And when she stared into 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 call it that. She hadn't told anyone. Not her older brother. Not her best friend Raine. Not the school counselor who had called that morning about her missing classes.

She didn't know how to explain that she hadn't slept, hadn't eaten, hadn't even blinked without hearing everything - the whisper of the neighbor's cat across the street, the scrape 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 too good to be true

Something quite strange

"You're late," Raine said, voice sharp but worried, when Kaia finally arrived at their usual rooftop hideout behind the Midvale train station. "Again." She added

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

Raine starred at her and noticed she wasn't looking like her usual self her. "You look like a ghost", Raine said

Kaia looked away. "I feel like one."

That was the truth. 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 knew when the next wind blew even before Raine felt it.

She was changing And she was terrified because she also feared if anyone could be able to understand her. "I am a freak" she said to herself.

That night, Kaia stood alone beneath the broken moonlight in her backyard, staring at her reflection in the window. Her eyes were rimmed with red. Her breath fogged the glass for a moment - 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 as if he already knew her secrets.

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

He came closer,

"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, something like a smirk. "Because you're not the first. And if you don't start running, you won't be the last."
