In a dark fantasy world, a vampire hunter teams up with a vampire couple to uncover a dangerous vampiric mutation. As loyalties are tested, he questions his own identity and family legacy.
Silver Under Nightfall is a captivating dark fantasy that intertwines the worlds of vampire hunters and vampires themselves. Set in a richly imagined universe reminiscent of Castlevania and the works of Jay Kristoff, the story follows Remy Pendergast, the only son of the Duke of Valenbonne. As an elite bounty hunter and an outcast among the Reapers, Remy grapples with the stigma of being the son of a woman who eloped with a vampire, leading to rumors of his own half-vampiric nature. When a new breed of vampire emerges, threatening the kingdom, Remy embarks on a solitary quest to uncover the truth.
However, his plans take an unexpected turn when he meets Xiaodan Song, a warm-hearted vampire heiress, and her arrogant fiancé, vampire lord Zidan Malekh. Despite the potential damage to his reputation, Remy realizes that this unusual alliance may be crucial in combating the vampiric mutation spreading throughout the land. As they navigate perilous challenges together, Remy begins to develop complex feelings for the couple, forcing him to reevaluate his perceptions of vampires and his own family legacy.
In a world where loyalties are tested, Remy must make a difficult choice between his duty to his father and the kingdom he has always defended, or embracing the bond he forms with Xiaodan and Zidan. Silver Under Nightfall promises a thrilling adventure filled with intrigue, romance, and moral dilemmas, making it a must-read for fans of gothic fantasy.
