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

Irrational

"So you agree, JJ." A smile bloomed on my face and I rose to kiss him on that baby-smooth cheek of his. "I knew you would. You are the most adaptable person I know. To skip a century and then still act like everything is normal, or mostly normal—that requires some mad skills."

"You flatter me," JJ smiled back at me. Then his expression sobered. JJ's cool hands that held me lifted me up from his lap like I weighted less than a feather and seated me next to him. He looked into my eyes. "But before we go to meet these people, I have to talk with you about something important."

I tensed, feeling unsettled, both from the sudden distance JJ put between us and from the uncharacteristic seriousness in his stare. A panicky part of my mind immediately jumped to the worst possible assumption. Could it be that JJ realised how smitten I was with him and decided to cut the romantic relationship between us?
