The Devil's Embrace

Madeline Rose had only ever worked in her father's local blacksmith shop and occasionally helped her mother at the farm. Her skin had become tanned from the hot sun, but despite all of this, she did not complain. Even though she didn't come from a wealthy home, she was content. However, her life turned upside down when she stumbled upon a darkness that refused to leave her alone. There was him, a man cloaked in mystery and malice, a presence that sent chills down her spine. His eyes, shrouded in shadows, held a depth of darkness that seemed to swallow the light around him. When their paths crossed, Madeline felt a cold dread wash over her, as if she had invited a malevolent force into her world.

Draven scowled, lines appearing on his forehead as he sat in the kitchen where Brimsley was stirring a pot. He had woken up with a slight headache, and what surprised him was that he had even slept at all.

Upon waking up, he came downstairs to see a huge frown on Madeline's face while she was asleep, then he had taken her to bed.

"Brimsley," Draven called, his gaze fixed on the well-carved kitchen table. Brimsley had been his butler ever since he awoken, and the man had been loyal to him, even for a vampire who rarely acted like one.

"Yes, King Draven," Brimsley replied, giving the vampire king a side eye and wondering what could have upset him.

The sun had set, casting warm golden light through the yellow kitchen curtains. The kitchen itself was refined, made entirely of black marble. Shelves filled with plates sat at one end, while a large pot simmered on the stove hanging over an iron rod.
