**Grammar**
Cedric, is a sun sprite from an ancient and respected family, which doesnt care about his dreams or desires. Cedric always knew he was gay and with the help of his best friend and bodyguard Ben,that he doesnt know is in love with him, he was able during the years to go to bars and parties to flirt and have one night stands with other men. Sadly all this is going to end. One day Cedric finds out that he is soon to be married to his wealthy cousin to fix with her dowry the family debts. Cedric is allowed one night of freedom before his wedding and he decides to try something new. He heard that vampires are the best lovers and he wants to remember his last night as a free man.
Silus Veturious, the son of a Vampire Lord, is having his birthday celebration, and Cedric with Ben's help(the human has the power to teleport),crashes the party. Soon Silus attention his on him. The vampire thinks that he is human and he sees no problem with taking Cedric to his bed for some fun. When they are finally alone and Silus tastes Cedric's blood he soon understands that he is a sun sprite, and his blood gives him the best orgasm of his life.
Their families are enemies but Silus wants to be with him again. He wants to know more about this brave sun sprite that was able to enter in a house full of his enemies. Cedric agrees and the 2 decide to meet again the next day.
Few hours later Silus' father comes to his room and tells him that the guards saw a sun sprite leave his room. The young vampire has to lie, and tells his father that the sun sprite used him and made him ill, that he didnt know the guy was one of his mortal enemies and that this would never happen again. His father believes him and leaves him alone. Silus is able to alert Cedric of the danger thanks to their link, something that was born btw them after the vampire fed from the sun sprite.
Later that day, the lovers meet in the house near the swimming pool and have sex together for the first time. Their coupling is fast and rough(all consensual) and Silus is a bit jealous of the fact that he was able to take Cedric this way bcs he was not his first lover. Silus' instincts tell him that Cedric is his mate and he wants the man to be just his.
The 2 men are falling in love. Meeting this way is not enough anymore. Silus tells Cedric that he is his mate and then explains to him that this word hasnt the same meaning for the vampires as for the werewolves, the difference is that while Cedric is his, Silus isnt Cedric's yet. Not till the sun sprite agrees to take him as his.
Luckily for him Cedric wants him too.
They know that they need to tell their families about their relationship, but they also understand that this will not have a good end. They are prepared to do all they can to be together, also die if necessary.
(pratically a gay Romeo and Juliet with an HEA...)
When Cedric tells his parents that he loves a vampire and doesnt want to marry his cousin, they disown him and give him only the time to take his things before casting him away. Cedric teleports to Silus and explains to him what happened, the vampire gives him the keys to a cottage he bought with his money and that no one other than him knows exist.
They agree to meet later that night, but sadly Silus' father finds out about this meeting.
The old vampire asks his doctors to fix his son, they made him believe that Silus was hexed by the sun sprite and the only remedy to save him, is to drain him, to clean his blood.
The poor guy gets drained for hours and almost dies 2 times before the doctors tell his father that they cant do anything to save him. Silus knows that he is going to die, that the doctors killed him not Cedric's blood and that he will never stop loving him. He is slowly dying, left alone in his room. He is losing his hope when an human guard enters the room. He tells the man that he will make him a vampire if he helps him with his blood. Silus knows that all the humans working for his family have this desire and he also knows that his father will never turn them,but will only use them till they die.
The human at start doesnt want to help him, but in the end agrees. Silus is finally free to leave the room.
(Here we still dont know that this poor human,Seth, soon vampire, will be one of the MCs of the next book and that his life will be a damn hell thanks to Silus and Cedric, also if they didnt mean to.)
While we see all this happening in the vampire's house, we also read about the fact that the vampires declared war to the sun sprites, asking for a time and day to have their battle. The sun sprites have other ideas, they want to ambush the vampires during the day and kill them all, like cowards.
Ben tells to Cedric all about his family plan and then takes him back to the city. Cedric needs to find Silus, he knows that the vampire would never leave him alone so something must have happened to him.
Soon they arrive in Silus' room and find the place smelling like a butcher's shop and the sheets full of blood. Under the bed they find the human that helped Silus, but they leave him there, not caring for him...(if only Ben knew that guy would be his future lover and all the pain he will feel in the next year could be avoided taking him with them.....poor Seth)
The house is full of ppl screaming. The battle is taking place and the 2 families are fighting. Cedric wants to save his parents and needs to find them. While running, they finally find Silus. The 2 lovers are finally reunited but they dont have time to waste, they need to save their parents and they know that if talking with them will not help they'll need to fake their deaths.
Thanks to a lie(letting them think that Silus is going to kill Cedric) they are able to reunite both the families in the same place and try to explain them about their love and why they dont want to give up on their relationship, but their parents dont care about their feelings and they soon understand that the plan must change. Thanks to Ben help, that will teleport them at the last second, they are able to fake their deaths and reach the cottage, where they will finally be able to live together.
Thanks to this, they are able to stop the war at least for now.
In the last pages of the book we see Silus asking Cedric to make love to him, to take him as no one has ever done before, since he is used to top, but we dont read about this scene...sadly, bcs i wanted to... -_-'
Anyway the book wasnt bad and i found it interesting, but i feel like it missed something. I liked the jealousy, how Silus gets angry thinking that Cedric would have had sex with another vampire if they hadnt met (also if we know that Cedric had wanted to leave after seeing one of the vampire, Silus'father, kick and hurt one of the waiters), or when he finds out that Cedric has a fiancee and he doesnt understand how he can cheat on someone he loves, not knowing that the marriage isnt Cedric's idea. I also liked how they both wanted to be together despite the danger.
What i really hated was their families and mostly their fathers. Those useless and abusive men, that think of their sons as their proprieties, something they own and can use, and prefer seeing them dead than together. Knowing what Silus' father will do to Seth i really wished the sun sprites killed him, and i hope someone will.
Ben was a good friend, he loves Cedric, but at the same time he helps him to be with Silus. When after he teleports the lovers back to the cottage and tells Cedric about his feelings, we already know that he is doing this only to come clean and not bcs he thinks that something could happen btw them. He kisses Cedric tenderly on the lips and makes some joke, leaving the lovers alone. He lets Cedric knows that he is not gonna lose him as a friend, and also in the 2nd book he will help them.
