Beauty and the Immortal: It started with a dig

[Mature Content] Some things are best left undisturbed for a reason. Especially ones that are buried in the ground.  Thirteen years after the incident at Winchester Manor, Mallory Winchester resides with her uncle and his family. She is to wed a baron. However, Mallory faces betrayal. Desperate, she sets out looking for the buried artefact that she once believed was a joke told by her grandmother.  But what do you do if you don't find the object, but a person instead? And not just any person, but an immortal being who was never meant to see daylight ever again.  Mallory is convinced that whoever created Hadeon Van Doren must have mixed in generous doses of evil, sadistic nature, and dangerously handsome looks. Now, besides her initial problem, she must find a manual to tame this person who is looking at her as if she is his next meal, as well as tame her.

Once important

Mallory leaned in towards Lady Rose, her curiosity piqued and eager for more details. She asked, 

"In love?"

A small chuckle escaped Lady Rose's lips, amused by Mallory's suggestion. "When the devil created him and the rest of us," she said, "he ensured that none of us could alter our true nature—least of all, Hadeon. Love is not something Hadeon does."

For some reason, Lady Rose's words pinched Mallory, even though she was already aware of Hadeon's nature. This knowledge was also precisely why she maintained her distance from the pot of craziness.

Lady Rose continued, "Long ago, Hadeon was captivated by Reagan's blood and took her everywhere. It's not that he lacked other sources before her. In fact, some even suspected that she had changed him. But when she turned into a vampire, she lost her appeal to him since he only kept her around for her blood. I suspect that's why she remains bitter and likely sees you as his next blood donor."
