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?

Wasn’t It What He Wanted?

The phone fell from Olive's hand onto the floor.

He was still, gazing into nothing with a horrified look on his face.

"O-Olive, is something wrong? Why do you look like that?" Lucien asked. They were all staring at him having been with him while he was on call with Valentine. They just had no idea what Valentine must have told him to suddenly; make him stand up from his chair with such a horrified expression.

Olive didn't respond but turned around storming up the stairs. They hurried after him.

He tramped towards Loui's room and without even knocking, he kicked off the door, watching as it slammed to the floor with a heavy thud.

"Olive!" They exclaimed, surprised.

Olive still didn't pay them attention, but his face grew furious at the sight of Loui who was seated on the bed, his hands interlocked and his head lowered with guilt looming all over him.
