Order of Dark Protectors Books

American author Rebecca Zanetti crafts the Dark Protectors, a captivating paranormal romance series centered on the powerful Kayrs family. This vampire dynasty commands both their own kind and the Realm—an alliance uniting vampires, shifters, and witches under one banner. The stakes couldn't be higher as the malevolent Kurjan vampires have launched a devastating war against the Realm, wielding a lethal virus as their weapon of choice.

This insidious plague specifically targets vampire mates, destroying their chromosomal structure and stripping away their immortality, transforming them from eternal beings to fragile humans—and potentially to death itself. With no antidote discovered and an all-male vampire population watching their beloved mates suffer, the race against time grows more desperate with each passing day.

Zanetti launched this gripping series in 2011 with Fated, and the saga continues to unfold with new installments. Fans can also dive deeper into this supernatural world through the companion Realm Enforcers spin-off series. The Dark Protectors novels are best enjoyed in publication order, which mirrors their chronological sequence:
