Synopsis
Vampires, known as "Dracs," have been integrated into society for nearly a century but are still treated as second-class citizens.
Forbidden to drink human blood, they subsist on diluted rations that keep them in a weakened state. Amid rising anti-Drac sentiment and a proposed bill mandating human blood donations, the story follows Henry Arya, a charismatic but directionless delivery boy, who is bitten by a Drac.
Desperate to hide his new condition from his girlfriend, Rose, who works as a nurse at the city's blood bank, Henry joins a group of Drac activists. Led by the zealous Lupo family, including Sam, Dimitri, and their matriarch Jacqueline, they devise a heist to steal blood from the city's blood bank during a rally held by anti-Drac pundit Timothy Stephens.
As Henry learns to harness his new abilities and grapples with his identity, the heist unfolds with unexpected complications. A series of missteps and confrontations with authorities culminate in a chaotic showdown. The gang battles against an armored army of vampire control grunts called Lightbringers, police, and embattled citizens turned Drac hunters. Henry accidentally bites Rose in the frenzy.
In the aftermath, the Lupos turn to vampire activist Natalia Meyer for help and make a final desperate attempt to change public perception.
They confront Timothy Stephens and secure airtime to plead their case. Despite the tragic losses and intense conflicts, the story concludes on a hopeful note, with Henry and Rose’s relationship and the future of Dracs hanging in the balance.
