No More Blood For My Vampire First Love

Allie Gilbert is the last Keeper of the Gilbert family, protecting the peace between humans and vampires in Veilbridge. Her father, Richard Gilbert, wanted to hand her to an awakened Original as a blood servant. Allie refused, because she loved Julian. Her father cut her off and told her not to come back.

She loved Julian Vandeburg, heir to the Vandeburg vampire bloodline. She brought him coffee, wrote him notes, and stayed close. Everyone at Silverthorn assumed they were together.

Julian denied it. He told Philip they were just friends and that Allie was useful because she was Candice's sister. Allie heard it. Two years meant nothing. Julian had been searching for Candice, her stepsister, for three years, because Candice saved his life. Allie was a way in.

After Julian's betrayal, Allie accepted her father's plan to serve the Original as a blood servant. At the Stillwater Rite, Candice was chosen as the vessel bearer, but the Vandeburg power had influenced the vessel. Allie performed the rite and saved the town. Julian still ran to Candice.

Candice stole Allie's mother's ring and demanded Allie serve at her birthday party. Julian gave Candice a blood oath mark, something a vampire can only do once. Allie watched. Candice accused Allie of pushing her. A group of vampires led by Betsy attacked Allie for her Keeper blood. Morona arrived and saved her. Allie told Julian that Candice wasn't her real sister—her stepmother and Candice had taken her mother's place, her father's love, and her mother's last gift. Julian chose Candice again.

Allie walked through the veil gate. She would never return. The Original who had waited two centuries for her was ahead. Julian would regret what he lost.
