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?

The Selection?

Before the royal cemetery ground, everyone stood, including barely familiar distant members of the royal family.

Ryan was the first to take a step towards the casket where Natasha's well-dressed dead body was laid inside. He stared at it and lowered his eyes, unable to stop the tears streaming down his eyes.

He didn't say a word but simply threw a white lily flower into the coffin. A deep breath fled his nose and he turned around walking back. Old Master Lenort was next, followed by every other close member of the family. 

Draven and Avelina stepped forward. They stared at the corpse and threw in a bouquet for her, then turned around and returned to their spot. 

Ryan turned his head and glanced at the both of them from where he was standing. His eyes held hatred, ill intent, and bloodlust. It looked as though he could attack right from there if he was allowed to.
