More than 1000 years have passed,and the world is no longer the same. The legacy of Hope Mikaelson and Ryan Clarke continues through their son-Nick,named after the legendary Niklaus Mikaelson. But bloodlines of ancient beings are never just a blessing... With new generations rising, including the children of Josie and Lizzie,old secrets begin to awaken once again. When the past refuses to stay buried, everyone will have to choose-repeat the mistakes of their ancestors,or create a new destiny.

She is older than legends. Deadlier than their secrets. For centuries, the sea has kept its deepest secrets buried. Until she rises. Ancient. Mysterious. Forbidden. A creature whose song has been forgotten by time-and whose existence was never meant to be discovered. He thinks he can resist her. He's never heard her song. Some things are not meant to be found. Some desires are not meant to be followed. And some legends are better left beneath the waves.

New Orleans knows how to hide its monsters. They wear expensive clothes, speak in old bloodlines, and rule the night like they were born to it. Then Jason Todd arrives. Scarred, ruthless, and carrying something far worse than rage in his veins, Jason is no ordinary werewolf. The Lazarus Pit left its mark on him, but under the cursed light of a blue super moon, he becomes something the supernatural world has no name for. Something silver cannot burn. Something wolfsbane cannot poison. Something even mountain ash cannot cage. As bodies begin to fall and whispers spread through the shadows, one name starts haunting every pack, coven, and coven-born rumour in the city: The Blood Requiem. Dark, brutal, and soaked in supernatural dread, The Birth of the Blood Requiem is the story of how a lone predator rises above every law of the night and becomes the nightmare that monsters fear.
