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?
Secretly?
Valentine sneered.
"You heard me.
Ryan balled his hands. "That is impossible. She would never dare—"
"You really think that? You really are very stupid! You behave like you know your wife, yet you can't even tell what she is capable of!" Valentine's eyes were filled with disdain.
"Hey!" Ryan slammed his hands on the table. "Don't you dare insult me!"
"You deserve it! Because you really are foolish. Very dumb!" Valentine taunted, quite hateful within him.
Ryan's fist tightened, and his eyes twitched furiously. He was resisting the urge to burst Valentine's teeth.
Able to compose himself, he sat down on the chair and folded his arms. "So what makes you come to that conclusion? Did you see her visit a witch? Hell, there is no reason for my wife to even visit one."
"Is that what you think?" Valentine questioned.
Ryan stared at him. He could not seem to answer that question.
