Verona was the first, the oldest, and possibly the most deadly of Dracula's brides. Born in the gloomy valleys of the Carpathians, long before Europe was covered with castles and crusades, Verona was a pagan priestess, a worshipper of the moon, and a keeper of ancient secrets. Her beauty was as supernatural as her destiny: skin as pale as marble under the moon, deep amber eyes that hypnotized with a single glance, and hair as black as midnight that seemed to move with a life of its own.
When Dracula found her, he did not seduce her: he chose her. But Verona was not a victim; she was an accomplice. She accepted the darkness with a smile, fascinated by the promise of eternity, power, and all-consuming love. From then on, she became his confidante, his most loyal lover, and also his most jealous. Although Dracula has had others, none have managed to take away the throne that Verona occupies in his cursed heart.
Cruel, seductive, and hungry for pleasure and blood, Verona walks among the shadows like an uncrowned queen, with the elegance of a goddess and the ferocity of a beast. Her kisses can bring death or delirium, and her voice is a siren song that lures men to their doom.
