Angelique, as the Daywalker is the vessel he has awaited. He attempts to seduce her cooperation by encouraging her to claim her blood legacy as The Chosen, which is written of in Vampire lore passed down as the Prophecy of Rule. This ancient text states that one day a Daywalker would emerge and reunite the Counsel of Seven, and subsequently preform the Rite of Ascension there by establishing the Daywalker as the supreme ruler of all Vampires. Secretly Nammuar is planning to steal Angelique's body during the ceremony, and through ageless magic's establish an endless darkness where Vampires rule all living things. Angelique pretends to comply, though she has an agenda of her own, one that will save her family from the destruction eternal darkness would bring.In secret she travels to Europe where she goes about establishing herself as the Chosen.

By some, she is accepted as the Chosen and rightful Queen, but to others, she has proven herself to be a deadly enemy.Rory and Deanna, in their mountain retreat, discover the lifeless body of their nanny.

Soon, not only is she forced to defend her new charge from rouge clan members that wish to hurt her, but from Nammuar as well. Nona, as it turns out, is a very gifted empath capable of interacting with Nammuar's soul.With so very much at stake, the lives of her family and this new child as well, Angelique turns to her father for help. She, Rory, and Nicholas set about creating a plan that will either result in the successful crowning of Angelique as Queen, or the total destruction of their family.
