Synopsis

[ MAIN STORY COMPLETED ] In the Heart’s Kingdom, a kingdom where vampires reign and humans were nothing but livestock, Lilou, a peasant, found herself being preyed upon by the worst maniacal vampire of his kind. However, as terrifying as what he addressed her as his ‘reserved meal’, this vampire also called her his bride! Except: My eyes brood with fear, gazing at the still-beating heart in his hand. “My Lord, pardon me but… is this the bloody proof you promised to show me?” I asked, my voice shook as I gulped down whilst struggling my trembling knees from giving away. “Mhm… do you now believe I’m good at capturing hearts?” The silver-haired man, bearing those menacing pair of deep crimson eyes stared proudly at me after a nod. I gasped when he clenched his hand and squeezed the fresh heart to smithereens. “Yes, milord. You’re good at it, literally.” I’m mortified, watching the pieces of the heart fall as he approached. His every step made me take a step back until my back reached a solid pillar. “Huh,” Samael chuckled briefly, stopping in front of me. His long, pointy nails that were covered with blood traced my elbow down to my hand. Gently, he clipped my forefinger in between his, guiding it before his lips. “Did I pass your test, though?” He asked, the sharp tip of his nail playing over the tip of my finger. I stared at his penetrating gaze as I reluctantly answered, “Barely.” He smirked, nodding in satisfaction before he pressed his nail on the tip of my forefinger that was quick to produce a drop of blood. “Such sweet aroma.” He whispered, placing my bleeding finger in his mouth and licking it with passion. His menacing gaze never left mine as he consumed a bit of my blood. “Does that mean you’re accepting my invitation?" Keeping my finger in between his fangs, Samael inquired. I bit my lower lip unconsciously, my heart within my chest drummed as my back broke into sweats. “But… I’m just…” I paused, hoping my answer would put an end to this. “… I’m just a human.” Samael clicked his tongue, displeased at my response as he let my finger go. “No,” He whispered. My entire body stiffened when he bent over, caressing my shoulder up to my neck by the apex of his nose, as his hot breaths prickled my skin. "You're not just a mere human... you are my human." He stressed before I sensed his lips part and the tip of his fangs against my skin. Cover not mine. *** Original Story by: alienfrommars FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM for original character arts: @authoralienfrommars Discord server: https://discord.gg/tbS4rKec3e

The theme of the supernatural is another key aspect. Gothic horror dark passion novels often use the supernatural to heighten the sense of mystery and fear. In 'The Picture of Dorian Gray', the portrait that ages instead of Dorian is a supernatural element that ties into the themes of moral decay and the dark passion of Dorian's pursuit of a hedonistic lifestyle. It represents the hidden consequences of his actions in a very gothic way.

Dark settings are a key characteristic. Think of old, crumbling mansions, desolate moors, or shadowy castles. For example, in 'Wuthering Heights', the moors are not just a backdrop but also seem to reflect the wild and unruly nature of the characters' emotions. Also, intense emotions like love and hate are magnified. The passion in these novels is often extreme, not the mild, everyday kind.

Well, in dark gothic novels, one of the main characteristics is the presence of complex and often tormented characters. These characters might be haunted by their pasts or have some sort of inner darkness. The settings, as I mentioned before, play a huge role. For example, an ancient, crumbling mansion can add to the overall feeling of decay and mystery. There is also a frequent exploration of themes like death, madness, and the unknown. The use of vivid and often dark descriptions helps to create an immersive and somewhat terrifying experience for the reader.
