Emma seeks safety and a place to belong.
After her husband leaves her to die in a savage snowstorm, Emma walks straight into the gates of Lord Victor's manor and accepts work as the live-in cook. A hasty proposal turns that position into a marriage, yet vampire law recognizes only two human roles: blood source or bound familiar. Emma carries neither mark, so every corridor and council chamber treats her as an anomaly the ancient statutes never anticipated.
