Summary
There’s reverence in the silence that stretches between them as they're stepping through the sleeping city, side by side. Purpose inside him as he holds down a killer, never ever letting them touch even one braid on her head. Beauty in the wild way her eyes spark in the streetlight, right before she sinks her dagger into the heart of their prey. And sometimes, when she’s covered in the blood she spilled, and she blinks up at him as her gaze turns tired with the fight leaving her, he thinks he has found the true Mother of Victory, reborn in the flesh to walk amongst the humans and monsters.
And when he’s lucky, she gives him a small smile after, which reminds him that miracles are possible for an abomination like him, too.

Sydney hates vampires with a burning passion for killing her mother, and she knows very well to stay away from the Berzatto clan. But when a certain Carmen Berzatto wins the James Beard Award, her obsession with the bloodsucking demon of a chef begins. Years later, when a sous-chef position opens at The Beef, the restaurant her grandmother taught her never to set foot in, she applies in a heartbeat.
She and Carmy begin to learn how to work together. In more ways than one.
