When it's time for teenage vampire Juliette to make her first kill so she can take her place among a powerful vampire family, she sets her sights on a new girl in town named Calliope.

#### Short summary

Juliette, a born vampire, has a crush on a classmate in high school named Calliope. But she has a bigger problem - since she hasn't yet killed a human she suffers from temporary severe physical symptoms that are getting worse. The medicine, a pill with blood, is starting to lose its effect. Her parents and sister try to coerce her to commit her first kill but she doesn't want to harm others. Unbeknownst to Juliette, her crush Calliope is the youngest daughter in a family of monster hunters. She is the only one in her family that hasn't killed a monster yet since she failed her first try. When she goes with her brothers on a mission she is on lookout duty. She starts to suspect that Juliette is a monster and manages to both find her blood pills and trick her into touching silver, confirming her suspicions. Calliope sneaks out to go to a party that Juliette invited her to hunt her. They end up kissing inside a pantry and after Juliette gets lost in the moment and bites her, Calliope stabs her.

In the meantime, Cals family (Talia, Apollo and Theseus Burns) behead a Shambler that was looking for an item in their house. It turns out Apollo took it home with him on a hunt and he has to clean up the mess, including meeting with Clayton Cook and explain what happened. Talia catches Cal as she gets home and the following morning Cal shows her how she stabbed Juliette. She is concerned that Juliette collapsed but didn't turn to dust and it turns out she is a legacy vampire, a stonger type that can walk in daylight and its not known how to kill them. At the party, after a short blackout Ben (Juliette's best friend) stumbles over the dead body of their classmate Ashley. Juliette was passed out in the pantry but wakes up and sneaks home. Her mother catches her but when she sees blood on her mouth she assumes she did her first kill and Juliette doesn't correct her. Her sister Elinor and her father, who is the DA in town, clean up the mess (thinking her first kill was Ashley) but Elinor gets suspicious that Jules even did it due to the brutality of the kill.
