My Vampire Assistant

“A boyfriend in a box. Do not keep under direct sunlight.” After the death of her father the antiquarian, Diana Daraeva struggled with the debt he left her together with his antiquities shop. Her dream of becoming a famous antiquarian was ready to be shattered by reality. Only a miracle could save it, but Diana didn’t believe in those. Not until she accidentally released a centuries old vampire from a sealed coffin in the store’s basement. Jean-Jacques, an embodiment of dangerous allure and mysteries, all hiding behind his suave smile, was Diana’s miracle. In return to Diana’s help, he offered Diana to help fulfil her dream—and she agreed. A best helper there could be—someone who was alive (or undead) when the antiquities of today were made. But when old and new enemies appear, crazy exes compete in the madness of their stunts, and hidden truths unveil, will Diana be able to grow into her heritage and find her place between the two worlds? And how long will she be able to escape Jean-Jacques’s temptations? ⠀⠀ ⠀ I stared at him like he just grew another head. “So basically, you chose to pursue me of all people because I'm so impossible for you to seduce, is it? You do realise that you only make your task harder right now?” “But that’s the whole point, ma chèrie! The longer the chase, the sweeter the prize.” Jean-Jacques’s smile turned positively sly, but damn if it didn’t make butterflies fly in my stomach. “What I will keep refusing? Forever?” “Well,” he clicked his tongue, “then this will be a first.” ⠀⠀ ⠀ [GOLD WINNER WPC #179] Slow burn, but fast updates~ Join my discord server for SPECIAL CONTENT - https://discord.gg/74h73Re2Ak

A small, but important detail

In the end, the entire business wasn't as simple as going and shooting a show. The arrangements had to be made, though Prom Queen promised it won't take more than a couple of days. This was, after all, an exclusive to beat all exclusives. Journalists loved that.

In meanwhile, instead of proceeding with our usual lessons with Ghost later that day, I asked him another thing, hoping that in the wealth of knowledge he accumulated in the course of his long life there'd be what I needed.

"Combat magic? Ah, that makes sense. Times like these, you'd want to know how to defend yourself. Healing is good, but you can't just let people harm you either," Ghost replied to my request with a sage nod. "I should've thought to teach you something defensive earlier."

I beamed. "Great! I wasn't sure you do, since you are a healer first, after all."
