DARK SERUM Love. Blood. Revolution. A deadly pandemic has claimed a third of the human population. As the KrynX virus spreads unchecked, global systems fail, governments collapse—and Big Pharma has no cure. Desperate, the United Nations reveals a truth long buried by history: vampires are real , and they’ve lived in secret under a centuries-old pact. Their blood can cure KrynX. Now, the vampires will save humanity—but for a price. In exchange for their life-saving serum, vampires demand full legal rights and a place in human society. The world erupts. Riots flood the streets. Human extremists call it surrender. Vampire radicals call it betrayal. The fragile pact fractures before it ever has a chance. Caught in the chaos is Adriana Vargas , a former investigative journalist haunted by loss and abandoned by the world she once exposed. When she’s saved from a violent attack by Ezra , a mysterious vampire with a dark past and haunting eyes, life as she knew it ends. Their connection is dangerous. Impossible. Forbidden. As Adriana and Ezra’s bond deepens, they’re drawn into a war built on centuries of fear and bloodshed. Terror groups from both sides rise in the ashes of the pact. Hate spreads faster than any virus. And when Adriana uncovers a conspiracy linking her past to the future of both species, she must decide what—and who—is worth saving. Because in a world divided by blood, love may be the most dangerous rebellion of all. A pulse-pounding blend of dystopian science fiction, gothic romance, and political thriller , Dark Serum explores a future where salvation comes from the shadows—and where humanity’s greatest threat isn’t a virus, but ourselves.
