A Game Of Chess With A Vampire
[SLOW BURN ROMANCE. RATED 18: NO RAPE] What if the sort of love you'd wanted and desired, only but a man incapable of love could give it to you–a man who has not the slightest of an idea what the word "Love" meant? ..... Vampires coexisted with humans for centuries without either side hunting or killing the other due to a peace treaty. They didn’t feed on human blood for so long either, but that changes when the first vampire auction is held. Six human slaves were sold, and among them included Avelina, a twenty-six-year-old woman. Avelina is sold to an infamous Vampire prince, Draven Delgaard, rumored to have committed heinous acts even amongst his kind. She fears for her life upon their first encounter, but to her utmost bewilderment, Draven Delgaard makes a deal with her. He sought the inheritance of the royal family, but to be qualified, he needed a wife. Since his kinds weren’t available due to his reputation, Avelina was one of the few options left. In exchange for her freedom, she will assist him in obtaining the inheritance. But this royal inheritance can only be acquired through the style of a chess game with other royal opponents. A game of strategy and survival. Should she succeed, her freedom shall be regained and it would be a win-win for both her and Draven. However, she soon realizes that success might come at a very heavy cost. Will Avelina and Draven be able to win the game of chess? Will they secure her freedom and inheritance, or will they fall victim to the dangerous machinations of the royal family?
Is This For Your Revenge Too?
First of all, anyone with a strong sense of smell would immediately realize that Olive was slightly reeked of smoke. Yes, the meals being served in the restaurants camouflaged it, but it still didn't escape him.
His sense of smell was higher than the rest, giving him the advantage of retaining the smell of anyone, even if it was just a few seconds or minutes of the meeting.
Last night, when Olive walked into the restaurant, he was able to tell that Olive was there due to the smell that he had retained. It was possible because they had met before, at the ceremony.
Now, not only did Olive smelt of smoke, but his white shirt was also smeared with ashy dirt, hinting at the fact that he had been in a place where something was burning. He was very sure that even Olive himself did not notice the ash, as even his hair was a bit colored by it.
