What does it feel like to be sold in an auction full of greedy humans that would do anything to satisfy their own needs?
Here belies, Ruth, a male vampire that has lived over 400 years, stuck in an auction that is being held by a bunch of 'mortals'. Where did he come from? Unknown. Why is he being auctioned? Unknown. What do these humans want from him actually? Unknown. He stayed in the cage, with the 'unknown' feeling of familiarity.
Alexander Everett, one of the auctioneers. Known for his status as the most influential mafia in the underworld. His methods of killing and torturing are basically inhumane. He has never been interested in such 'auctions' especially when it involves vampires. He reluctantly came because of his 'partner in crime', that wanted to have fun in life, while being as crazy as Alexander himself as he was about to do something stupid.
He sees Ruth. Ruth sees him. Their gazes are locked with each other. Alexander's gaze shows dominance and power. Ruth just shows sheer coldness and indifference, without any care of the human world he's in. What secret could a vampire like him...hide?
"Such indifference... That's unique."
-Alexander Everett-
"And that wouldn't concern you."
-Ruth-

Crimson Vows
Lila Burns knows pain too well. Fighting a rare blood disease has taught her strength, but it couldn't prepare her for the day her fiancé walked away-unable to love her through the weight of her illness. Left with nothing but her fragile body and a heart stitched together by survival, Lila stops believing in promises. Until fate collides her path with his. One moment outside the hospital changes everything. A man cloaked in shadows and quiet command brushes past her, his presence stealing her breath. When his bouquet slips from his hand, Lila bends to gather it, only to be halted by the deep, velvety tone of his voice. He picks them up himself, plucks a single flower, and presses it into her palm-a gesture so intimate, so startling, it leaves her trembling. He walks away without another word, flanked by two men dressed in black, luxury and danger woven into every detail of their presence. But Lila cannot forget the look in his eyes, the unspoken promise in the way he touched her hand. Soon, she learns who he is-the ruthless owner of a criminal empire, a man both worshiped and feared in the underworld. Dark. Possessive. Untouchable. A man who has no business noticing her... yet does. Drawn to him against her better judgment, Lila is pulled into a world of whispered threats, dangerous power, and desire that feels as lethal as it does undeniable. In his arms, she is cherished in ways she never believed possible-but in his world, love can be the most dangerous weapon of all. --- Would you like me to turn this into a **back cover blurb style** (short, punchy, and marketable) or keep it more **novel-synopsis style** (lush, longer, and cinematic)?

Bound To The Demon Prince Of Erendale | 18+
⚠️WARNING: MATURE AUDIENCE ONLY.🔞 "You're mine, Witch." His voice hardened. "Your life that I saved? The one that would've been WASTED if I hadn't acted? Belongs to ME. And you will do only as I please, exactly as I say, until-" "Over my dead body!" I hissed, suddenly filled with anger. "That can be arranged," Hans said easily. Then with a smile that was anything but pleasant: "Or you can steal for me instead. Kill for me, if I tell you to. Either way, you stay where I can see you. Night and day." "I'm no puppet." I held his silver gaze with a glare. "And I'm definitely no murderer." "No, but you're a thief. One that's now forever indebted to me." ~•|•~ She steals power. This time, she stole the wrong one. ~•|•~ The Black Market of Erendale runs on the trade of magic ripped from its owners and sold to the highest bidder. Eclipse knows the game. As a Siphoner, a rare witch who can drain abilities with a touch, she survives by robbing the powerful and selling to the even more powerful... until she accidentally takes the essence of Hans de la Mort, the demon of Erendale himself. Crossing him should mean death. Instead, he offers her a deal: she'll return his power when the time is right, and until then, she and her siphoning abilities belong to him. She was his prisoner. His prey. And dangerously, the one who made his demon want to play. Every job she's forced to do pulls them closer to danger-and closer to each other. But when Eclipse uncovers a plot to overthrow him, she's faced with an impossible choice: return his power and lose the only leverage keeping her alive... or keep it, and risk losing everything. Including him.
Fate in his hands
Still mourning from the untimely death of her mother, and a week before leaving the Nassau county with her best-friend, and with that, everything else she had ever known, Sol find herself wrongfully charged and incarcerated for the murder of a member of her family. Already depressed at the idea of her once-promising future now marred by the bleak confine of a prison cell, she now also has to the deal with the fact that she has just caught the eyes of a man, whose power and reputation for brutality alone precede him. ....... "Little flower" , He said, his fingers gently tilting my head up to look at him. "Yes", I breathlessly exhaled "If you ever speak to me like that again, I will rip your fucking throat out.", He continued with a terrifying smile. ...... - And because his ancestors were never picky about their business endeavours, partly due to their direct ties to royalty, and due to their connections to upper-class members of the justice system in Europe and eventually in North America and Asia, the man's family had been direct benefactors of both world wars due to their involvement in the weapon industry, and as suppliers of the adrenaline-pumping drug both the Germans and the French/Americans were injecting in their soldiers before sending them to battle. It's safe to say the man's power knew no bound or restrain. Power that carried through with every single one of the man's actions. Indeed, The man never yelled and never raised his voice, he never had to. The man was curt in his speech. His deep, raspy, baritone voice almost always resonated through with the same monotonous tone. Unless it was to handle his bi-daily entertainments, which were often eccentric in genre and deriving from eclectic sources. It was only then, you'd see the man's eyes twinkle with amusement, frequently at the expense of others. - ______ WARNING [Contains mature, potentially triggering content]
