Near Death, She Became Queen

Synopsis

Pepper Valentine, true heiress raised on battlefields, returns to New York's vampire clan—only to be framed, whipped, and thrown into a silver prison by her father, mother, and fake heiress Anastasia. The poison awakens her progenitor bloodline. At the Thorne banquet, she proves her identity, seizes power, and is crowned Chair of the New York Council. She avenges her adoptive father's death, kills Kronos, rebuilds the order, and marries Christian.
