"butterflies are indeed attracted to death." once again, a girl being the love interest of two people is cliché, not until it's Lauv. It stops being cliché once the girl has chosen what she thinks is her star crossed lover. It becomes even more intriguing when French hybrid Victor seems to be the choice. Lauv, also known as bimba, the wealthiest Mafia vampire, she's the perfect example of making use of wealth to help others, whereas, Lorenzo, a waiter, is mysterious and docile, Lorenzo is a perfect fit for Lauv's habit of wanting and keeping things she considers pretty. What happens next when after remembering Victor, Lauv finds out who her real beloved is? What would you do? Who would you choose? ... "Wait you're mad at me because you're the one telling him to leave? It's his choice, he gets to choose, don't humans have free choice or are you playing god's game: lying to him and choosing what's best for him? I just influenced his actions and if I, were in him, whether or not you instructed me to, I'd leave too if someone threatened to kill me!" She lazily raised her hand upwards taking a few steps back, as if she wasn't embarrassing me. "God's game?" I questioned her dismayed by her words. "Right you're leaving?" She asked him with an annoyed look on her face, totally ignoring my question. ... WARNING ⚠️ this book contains blood, very detailed description of murder/slaughter/stabbing, the mafia is mentioned multiple time, a few kiss scenes not your typical kdrama ;) HIGHEST RANK #10 BELOVED HIGHEST RANK #95 MOB
