Blood Debt (Patreon)

Once a feared legend among hunters and monsters alike, Ivana Drach, the “Black Widow of the Carpathians,” was the last of the pureblood vampire queens — a centuries-old predator with a taste for vengeance and an empire of shadows. Her reign was unchallenged… until now.

Captured by a rogue band of vampire hunters, Ivana is betrayed and cornered in the crumbling remains of a church she once desecrated with blood rituals. As the ceremonial stake plunges into her heart, her shriek of agony tears through the night — not from pain, but from the bitter sting of betrayal. Among her attackers is Luka, a former disciple she once turned and trusted, now leading the rebellion.

Blood gushes from her chest as her power drains, but Ivana doesn’t beg. She roars with fury, revealing fangs sharpened by centuries. Her final scream echoes like a curse through the broken stone — a dark vow that even death won’t silence her.

But as her body collapses, the skies blacken, and a blood-red eclipse begins. The hunters think the nightmare is over. They’re wrong.

Because some queens… don’t stay dead.
