With my blood, I bind you. I bind your body and your soul. My blood will fulfill your destiny. You will be my shield and my sword. You will be my voice. You will depend on me as I will depend on you. You will defend my life with yours, and I will do the same for you. This Bond is sacred. It shall only be broken by death.
Vindt's tranquil life as a lord's son comes to an abrupt end when his homeland is overthrown. Friends, family, his freedom-he loses it all to Singers and their dark song magic. Human in appearance, Singers are a different species. Their powers only fail against the demons hunting them. But even this flaw has a patch: humans with a rare and valuable trait. It allows Singers to take over their voice and use it like a weapon. Vindt turned out to possess this trait, and was bound to a Singer by blood. Ever since, he has struggled to break free.
Unexpectedly, a chain of events binds him to a new Singer: the sly and mischievous Asche. From day one, their egos clash. Only, their encounter was no coincidence; Asche needs him-but for what? To free the Singers from the curse that plagues them? Or because Asche is on a quest for power, as the Singer's brethren believe, who are determined to bring him down? Caught in the middle of their fight, Vindt gets yet another unexpected opponent: his wayward feelings for someone he's supposed to hate.
When Asche's enemies offer Vindt freedom in exchange for delivering Asche into their hands, Vindt has to make a choice.
CAPTIVE PRINCE meets INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE in this dark, queer fantasy novel about the fine line between hatred and obsession.
