Yet there is a society that would kill or torture a Carpathian, without even trying to see the differences.

The Carpathian hunters hunt and kill the Vampires, saving both humans and Carpathians alike from their demented desires. Christine Feehan does a remarkable job with the Carpathians struggles to live in a world that doesn't know they exist. He only seeks to ensure Desari will survive, then he wants to hunt the human assassins. While he holds her still body he is attacked by a male leopard. He weakens himself by healing her and giving her his blood. He rushes to find his lifemate only to find out she has been severly wounded. As Julian tries to understand and control his newfound emotions shots ring out. As soon as he hears her voice he sees in color and his emotions return. Julian goes to warn Desari, the singer for the group The Troubadors, when something he never imagined happens. The human hunters do not distinguish the difference between Carpathians and Vampires. Julian well remembers the torture inflicted upon Jacque (Dark Desire) the brother of their prince, Mikhail (Dark Prince). Julian is ready to to end his lonely existence until Gregori (Dark Magic) asks him to warn a singer that she is being hunted by humans who want her dead, or worse. He is a lonely Vampire hunter who cuts himself from all those he loves, even his twin, Aiden (Dark Gold), because of a careless mistake he made as a curious child. The fifth book in the Dark series is about Julian Savage, yet another dominate male Carpathian.
