"Lucien's lips brushed against her ear as he spoke, his warm breath sending shivers down her spine. His voice was low and intimate, each word caressing her skin with a tantalizing blend of menace and allure. She felt the heat of his breath travel down her neck, causing her pulse to quicken. His proximity was overwhelming, the scent of his cologne-something rich and exotic-filling her senses and making her head swim.
As he pulled back, his eyes locked onto hers, the candlelight reflecting in their azure depths, making them seem almost hypnotic. He watched her reaction with a smug satisfaction, clearly pleased with the effect he had on her.
Lucy shuddered, unable to discern whether it was from fear or an excitement she was unwilling to acknowledge. Her skin tingled where his breath had touched, and she felt an unfamiliar warmth spreading through her, confusing and unnerving her in equal measure."

Taking inspiration from a few classic romance novels, as well as gothic (vampire) novels

7 parts Ongoing Mature
Amid the 19th century, on a sprawling farmstead embraced by the English countryside, lived Scarlette with her bereaved father and the memories of her recently departed mother. The farm, once a haven of familial love, now echoed with the silent weight of expectations. Pressured by societal norms to marry, Scarlette found herself at a crossroads, her spirit stifled by the duties thrust upon her. Seeking solace and an escape from these burdens, Scarlette fled to the bustling streets of London, a world apart from her pastoral life. But amidst the labyrinth of cobblestone alleys and gas-lit boulevards, she encountered a being of nightmarish lore-a man whose eyes burned with a blood-red intensity, his fangs a grotesque testament to his thirst. This harrowing encounter awakened something primal within Scarlette. A relentless thirst, unquenchable by any means of mortal sustenance, took root in her being. It was a craving that defied explanation, steering her away from the life she once knew. Realizing the peril her presence now posed to her family, Scarlette was compelled to leave everything behind. She embarked on a solitary quest, one shrouded in danger and uncertainty, to find a cure for the curse that had ensnared her. Her journey, fraught with trials and tribulations, took her through shadowed forests and forgotten hamlets, as she sought to reclaim her humanity and protect her family from the darkness that now hunted her. In this world of grim romance, Scarlette's story unfolded-a tale of love, loss, and the relentless pursuit of redemption.

Book 1 of (The Awakening Series) {#1 Supernatural} {#1 Paranormal} {#1 Lycans} {#1 Vampire Romance} {#5 Royalty} The world went to shit long before I was born. Humans like me use to believe other species were nothing more than fictional characters, myths, or figures of one's imagination. But that was before vampires left the shadows and decided to reveal their species to the world. I've been told that teenage girls use to fantasize about being swooshed off their feet by those mysterious creatures. Insane. Matter of fact, insane would be an understatement, they were fucking lunatics. Vampires are not some fictional character that would love you like no other. No, vampires are not some sort of myth, and they most certainly are not, a figment of anyone's imagination. They are very real, and they despise the human race. In fact, they have enslaved my entire species and formed a new world. Each continent is owned by a ruthless, bloodsucking, barbaric, the vampire king. Every single one of them has played a part in the war of the awakening, showing no mercy, killing without question. Humans didn't even stand a chance. Our army and world leaders were killed or imprisoned in less than a couple of days. They slaughtered my race, but it didn't stop there. No, that was only the beginning of human suffering. Trust me when I say the death was truly a kindness, because anyone who survived the awakening, would beg for death. I was positive that my suffering would come to an end when I turned eighteen. I was hoping and praying to be marked as a feeder, nothing more, nothing less. Death was the only way out of this world. You see, all of the kings who ruled over the earth were cruel and calculating. They are all tyrants in their own right and they all answered to one vampire. Who was known as the most barbaric of them all and I was marked as his chosen. The King of all Vampire Kings.

[COMPLETED] ೋღ🌹ღೋ He stands roughly a few feet away from me, his body towering over my crouched one. I bring my legs up to my chest, pushing myself further into the wall as he kneels down towards me. He brings his nose to the crook of my neck, my face grimacing as I await for the pain. He breathes in, "hmmm, you smell so delicious." He coos, his breath fanning my neck, causing me to shiver In disgust. If only my brothers were here... "Wheres a delicacy like you been hiding this whole time?" His use of words has me on edge. His implementations imply that he's some sort of cannibal and judging from what he did to that other man I fear I may be right. I refuse to answer him, spitting in his face. My face bounces of the wall, the sting of his slap left behind on my cheek. I shake the pain away, placing a facade up to hide the fear within. You fucking bastard! I narrow my eyes at him, taking note of his features in case I miraculously survive this encounter. His hair is a dark auburn and his eyes that watch me with amusement are a dark blue. His attire was a black suit which seemed out of place considering he was standing in an alleyway. If I manage to escape I want to be confident that'd I'd be able to have this bastard put behind bars. Again if... His eyes shift, my eyes widening as his eyes turn from a dark blue to a pool of black, red veins trailing along from his pupil to the edge of his eyes. His voice is dark as he commands, "Show me that pretty little neck of yours." ೋღ🌹ღೋ ⚠️ Warning!!! This book is extremely dark and has depictions of Mature language, violence, sexual activity, sexual and physical abuse, including rape. Rape is a serious crime often overlooked where the victim is made to believe it is their fault. I do not condone rape however, it's a reality. Please only read if your 18+ and with caution. This book will be updated weekly. Possibly sometime more or less depending on how busy I am.
