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.

Why Are You Afraid?

Draven furrowed his brows and looked at his belly. At the sight of such uncontrollable bleeding, his pupils dilated and his breath hitched.

 

What is going on? Why am I still bleeding? His eyes twitched furiously in pain and shock.

 

Vampires heal when they are wounded, and the royal-blooded ones heal even faster. It should have healed a few seconds ago, but it was still bleeding.

 

"Don..." Loui whispered in a shocked tone.

 

Olive and Lucien went speechless, clueless about what was happening.

 

Avelina, who stood behind Draven, stepped out, and the second she glimpsed his stomach, her heart skipped a beat.

 

"D-Draven…" she stuttered, instantly panicked.

 

Draven looked at her and coughed hard the second he felt a lot of blood rush to his throat. He spurted out a mouthful of blood and grabbed his belly at the excruciating pain he was experiencing.
