blood is thicker than water | nishimura riki

the vampire hierarchy is built upon the four ancient pure-blooded families: the lee family, the park family, the kim family, and the nishimura family. the nishimura family is the purest of them all, and the crown prince nishimura riki knows it: and he makes sure that everyone around him knows it too. however, there are loopholes and tricks that one can use to worm their way into the elite society and rub shoulders with the royals, which half-blood (y/n) (l/n) has taken advantage of. but riki doesn't like the scum that's beginning to rot away his golden crown, and it becomes a cat-and-mouse game of who can top the other, until one day an unexpected accident brings them closer together, and then further apart than they could ever imagine.
