Why these tropes fit

In Caldwell, New York, the Black Dagger Brotherhood—six vampire warriors—defend their race against deadly slayers in an ongoing turf war. Wrath, the only purebred vampire left on earth and leader of the brotherhood, harbors a centuries-old vendetta against the slayers who murdered his parents. When a trusted Brotherhood fighter is killed, Wrath must guide the man's half-breed daughter into vampire society—a world she never knew existed. Unaware of her father's true nature or her own heritage, she is thrust into a realm of supernatural warfare, while Wrath becomes her reluctant protector and guide.
