A Lust Like No Other

(I'm not sure if this is discontinued, I really want to continue this book, I've just been dealing with many things for awhile now. Please have some faith and patience in me 🙏🏻)

When a troubled young man, whom finds comfort in vampiric tales, runs away from home and retreats to an old, abandoned mansion; rumored that it used to belong to an entity of some sort from many years ago. There, he finds a dusty book that tells a tale in a poetic form of a summoning.

The young man figured a little poem wouldn't do any harm, until he feels a cold, melancholic and malicious presence in the air around him; heavy on his lungs and chills up his spine.

Andrius would've never guessed that this particular creature with alluring, ghostly skin and long, unruly black hair as the night with those hypnotizing, graphite eyes would give him a peek of his great grandmother's history...and who knows where this curse might bring the two in the future? Would, could there be some eerie romance with a genuine undertone? Would it be one-sided? Will there be any love at all? Or...would it end tragically like it had for Desdemona Fairbird?

And what would happen when the three thugs of the Venomous Gang breaks into the mansion hoping to find Andrius, but instead is met with a creature of the night, who's hunger runs eternal?

Only one way to find out.

(Not sure how I forgot to mention this here when I first made this, but there may be some sensitive topics like abuse or homophobia)

(Did some digging, pretty sure the cover is "Bird on a Lantern" by Arthur Rackham)
