The Duvall Family has ruled the Underworld for centuries, right under the nose of humans. They are a powerful vampire clan that is known for being ruthless to get what they want. King Zaire Duvall and Queen Esha have done everything in their power to ensure that their family stays on top or, so they thought.

Mesa Duvall is the youngest of the Duvall brothers and runs a successful underground club for vampires and other creatures of the underworld. His family knew him as the one that followed all the rules. However, Mesa is breaking one major one that could get him killed.

Zontae Duvall is the most feared demon in the Underworld and next in line to rule. He helps run the family’s legal businesses, but his main business is slinging blood and other serums to the vampires and demons in the Underworld. His urge to suck the soul out of your body, or something even worse, is usually controlled by a serum. But something is changing, and his dark urges may no longer be under control.

Selene and Samara Kenney are cousins but were more like sisters to each other. Their home life is dangerous, thanks to Selene’s mom. After escaping their home, the girls are on a mission to find answers to Samara’s mysterious past and her parents’ deaths. Enter the Duvall brothers who turn their world upside down. Will these four be able to deal with the challenges, danger, and dark secrets revealed? Or will it tear them apart? When the Kenney girls meet the Duvall brothers, nothing will ever be the same, and their lives will change forever.


D-City Underworld: Zontae's Reign Reviews


  • Heather

    Whew! This read was everything! Suspenseful, drama, and pure dopeness. I love Zontae, Mesa, Selene, & Samara. I knew Jazz & Jade were going to be trifling and up to no good. I can't wait until they get handled. I knew the mother was deceitful but to betray your own sons is downright cold-blooded. Luke Harper is a nutcase and forced his sons into his madness. I am loving Nichelle and that ending solidified it. On to part 2!!

  • Mya Wesley

    This was literally like a Soap opera WITH VAMPIRES 🧛🏽‍♀️! DRAMA ON DRAMA ON DRAMA TWIST ON TWIST I AM UNWELL💔💔💔

  • Michelle Davis

    I am one of those quirky readers that love, love, a multitude of genres and 2 of my favorites are meshed together in this beautiful creation!! When the 2 main male characters were introduced in the original series, D-City Chronicles I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that they were special and definitely deserved their own spin-off. Zontae personifies every attribute of an alpha male. He is the strongest and the most powerful demon/vampire in the underworld. He quite literally possesses the power to suck the very life-force out of someone and yet he controls his darker urges by utilizing a serum keeping what some others of his kind consider to be beneath them safe from harm. Zontae captured me from the beginning not only did he have every physical strength and appealing characteristic that a woman looks for, his heart as much he tried to hide it was made of pure gold. Nothing made this more evident than his initial encounter with his destined mate, Samara. He felt her fear and recognized that she was unaware of all of the other elements that existed outside of the human realm. While their sexual attraction towards one another was off the charts, he recognized the need to truly get to know the woman that he was destined to be with forever. He didn't allow the prejudices of his mother or the evil from his soon-to-be ex to color or change his opinion about the hidden jewel that he found in Samara. Mesa, his brother found himself in an untenable situation much like his older brother. While Zontae attempted to make the most of the situation that he found himself in prior to meeting Samara, Mesa had absolutely no bones about letting his intended know that she was used goods and nothing that he remotely found appealing. He was basically going along with his mother's wishes but was absolutely disgusted with her choice in a mate for him. What he was unaware of was that Samara's cousin, Selene was his true mate and that he unknowingly started the mating process with her. When you see Selena and Mesa come together you recognize that in them is a great love that will grow and become the envy of everyone they encounter. The girls find themselves in a very difficult situation but when they come into contact with Zontae and Mesa you know that things are about to be all good for the 4 of them. This book is one that I've read twice already and I know that I will be cracking it open again. Every time I re-read this one I find some new tidbit of information that I missed before. Whether it was a smart-alec comment from Mesa, a certain look from Zontae, a powerful emotion from Selene or a bewildered expression from Samara I knew each time just like the layers of your favorite chocolate cake each tidbit was going to make the story better and better. Now as I stated before I'm an AVID paranormal fan. What I have not found in this genre very often are writers who possess the ability to merge the elements of an urban story and the elements of paranormal and seamlessly create a tale that will have the reader mesmerized from beginning to end. Ms. Jackson did just that. She created this other world and took the time to explain, reveal, and pull us all in one new discovery at a time. I love love loved it!!! Ms. Jackson is a reader's dream. She possesses the ability to both satisfy our literary hunger and yet leave us starving and thirsting for more. I harassed and basically turned into a first-degree stalker about this book. It is refreshing to read something that you've eagerly anticipated and know that at the end of it all you will want more and more. Kudos Ms. Jackson. I can't wait to read what you have for us next but what I do know that whatever it is it will be quickly downloaded on my kindle for me to immerse myself into your world of wonderful characters once again!!!

    😳😳

    My mother walked up to the microphone with Jazz and Jade by her side. That bad feeling that I had started coming back with a vengeance. “Well hello, everyone, and welcome to the dawn of a new reign in the Underworld!” my mother yelled as the crowd went wild. “I just want to say congratulations to my son on mating with the weak ass human whore that he chose over his own kind. It seems that both of my sons must be enchanted by some type of spell these bitches have placed on them! Jazz and Jade have served the Underworld for years with their loyalty and grace. Even with being mistreated by my sons, they donated the refreshments for the ceremony tonight; free B-Packs for everyone. Now, the waitresses passed them out a minute ago, so go ahead and pop one for these beautiful ladies on stage,” Queen Esha announced. Mesa looked over at me and said, “I thought you said someone took all the B-Packs. How did Jazz and Jade get that many of them anyways unless...”

  • Ms. T. Nicole

    Ahhhhh-amazing

    I've never read an urban vampire story but I was familiar with D_City Chronicles and couldn't wait to sink my claws into this tale. This book was everything. I enjoyed Mesa, and Lord knows Zontae but when Salema and Samara got powers and then a shift in the underworld, Lord I could put this book down. These girls have a rare bloodline and I'm not sure the underworld is ready. I know it's a supernatural thriller but this read like a banging urban fiction. That ending had tossing my kindle and wanting more. I just didn't want this book to end.

Luke and his daughters need to die a horrible death. Zae is going to find a way to fix everything hopefully. Please dont make us wait long for part2

  • Tracy - loves to read

    what a way to begin a series

    This is how you begin a series! Started off with murder and a mystery then a whole hidden Underworld with royals and the way they make money. Then the villains are brought in and the way they are moving is real shady. Matings and coronations. An unexplained death and sabotage. Powers that were dormant are now awakening. Betrayals at the deepest level. Revelations and those rising from the ashes.
    This book is packed with so much and it’s so good! Long live the king!
    Awesome read!

  • Daphne

    It's about to go down

    Samara and Selene are about to give Jazz, Jade and queen Esha a run for their money. Queen Esha is on some other stuff for real for doing what she did to her sons. Zontae and Mesa have met their matches in Samara and Selene. Part 2 is going to be crazy with the way part 1 ended. Paranormal isn't usually my go to genre, but I'll be on the look out for the next 1.

  • BookPlugMonie

    Let me tell y'all something..

    This author never disappoints! She is a newer published author on the scene her first series had me drooling bit this book is on a whole other level.
    Paranormal is my favorite genre and I was scared to read it at first because it's her first novel in this genre. If she stops writing paranormal I'm going to stalk her as this book was superb. She has quickly solidified her spot on my favorites list her work gets better and better.

    The Phoenix Sisters...

    Omg...I can't wait for part 2. I can't wait to see what's in store for the D-city Underworld crew. I'm happy that Zontae and Mesa were able to find out who were the snakes in theor camp. Also intrigued to see how they react when they find out about their mate's bloodline.

  • Taylor

    Great read!

    Okay so I’m ready for book 2! I’m usually hesitant when it comes to paranormals bc not everyone can write them but Annitia did a great job. This is my first read by this author and I wasn’t disappointed. Zontae is baeee 😍😍. I had s feeling the mom, Jade, and Jazz were snakes and that they were connected to the Harpers smh. I’m so ready for part two!!

  • Gina Bre

    WTF?!?!?

    This book was good even tho it seemed a bit rushed...I knew Jade and Jazz were some grimy chicks and Queen Esha being the mastermind of it all. I enjoyed the book because it was a page turner but I feel like something is missing from the backstory of Lene and Mara I hope the next book answers all my questions

  • Pretty Punk

    Zontae!!!!!

    Omg! This book! Let me just say it took me ONE night to read this, and I was NOT disappointed! I took want a vampire mate to suck my blood and damage my walls😍😫. Mesa and Zoom are FUNNY as HELL😂 I don’t wanna ruin it for those who haven’t read it but let me tell you this, this shows you it’s always the ones you least expect . That wicked Queen witch !😡

    The Underworld

    I have never been into the paranormal genre of books but you have changed that for me .The story was captivating, mesmerizing with hood what a mixture. Vampire and incubus sec can I get two cases of that whew off the chain. I am now a fan of this genre of books thanks to you. As with all of your books I am truly a #1 fan
