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

An ignoble end

"What? Lord Yredemnul, you ca—"

Staghead's indignant cry turned into choking when JJ tensed his fingers on the fey throat again. Either way, Yredemnul wasn't listening anymore. We took the hint, too—when I reached out with my hands, everyone wordlessly made a line. Then, I pulled us back to Earth, reaching through space to the place I remembered. It was easier from Under Hills, like it's easier to see through a mesh when that mesh is closer to your eyes.

We reappeared under the cloudy sky, in a place where air wasn't as fresh, but at least all shadows were right, a way away from Cornellio's mansion but not that far from where we entered Under Hills. Immediately, the tension began to drain from me. This was over, wasn't it? At least, some of my brain felt like that.

I wanted to sit down somewhere. No, better lie down.
