Blood Hunt - Marnie L. Norton

Cursed. 
Cursed to avenge witchkind.
Cursed to wreak wrath and destruction upon all men.
Cursed to be alone until the creature lurking beneath Bronya’s skin is sated.
That is until fate entwines the path of Bronya, the Strzyga, and Lord Rokuro of Lapis. 

Men. Men have created an inhospitable world where witch blood is a currency and a commodity. For the last century, witches have been hunted, imprisoned and bled for the magical properties of their blood. Witch blood can be used to imbue metal, strengthen muscle, heal the wounded and grow substantial crops.

As a small child, when her small coven are brutalized and captured, Bronya endures a curse so profound it will change the course of Eldora. A curse to wreak revenge on all men for the atrocities they have inflicted upon the race of witches. 

After a century enduring her lonely, and yet, blood thirsty existence, Bronya finally wishes to end the tyrannical reign of Lork Warrock of Raikin City and his battalions of witch hunters. Her single hope - to finally free witchkind. However, when Bronya becomes the one witch in all of Eldora, Lord Warrock needs and hunts, fate steps in and changes the course of her journey to redemption and release, and puts in her path a single man that will either heal her or destroy her.
