The Reckoning by Alma Katsu
3.0
Lanore and Johnathon imprisoned Adair 200 years ago in order to escape his tyranny. It's now 2010, only a few short months after Johnathon succeeded in having Lanore end his long life, and Adair is free. Without Johnathon, and only herself to rely on she she makes the decision to leave Luke, because any mortal connected to her wouldn't stand a chance facing Adair. She ends up turning to a few other immortals hoping they will have more knowledge of how to escape Adair, since they all spent more time with him than her few short years. Adair wants nothing more than to find Lanore, but his emotions involving her change from seeking revenge, to just seeking her. While he is determined to find her, she is determined not to be found.
***Spoilers***
Adair is so single minded in his pursuit of Lanore, that he reanimates Johnathon for any information he may have of her whereabouts. Johnathon refuses to help him in anyway, until he confesses that he has no intent of harming her. Adair is in love with Lanore, and wants the opportunity to prove it to her. In the end Tilde, and Alejandro betray Lanore, trapping her and turning her over to Adair. He rapes her as soon as he sees her, breaking his promise to Johnathon, and ruining his chances of winning her love. After a few months together, he allows her to leave, and tells her that he wants her to love him, but she has to choose to do so.
