11 parts Complete ❝ Every child, whether human or vampire, grows up with the same tale: One day they may find their soulmate in someone of the other species but for vampires, it's not that simple. The bond with their human dominates every fibre of their being as soon as they meet them - being without them tears their soul apart. And if a human ever rejects them... a vampire's body can't take it.
And yet she does it with full awareness. She knows it would kill me - nothing else can explain the expression of utter confusion spreading over her face when I don't.❞
She doesn't want him.
He can't live without her.
A bond, ending fatally if rejected.
But her refusal changes everything.

Prompt 11: Vampires are bound by an ancient destiny: their soulmate is always human, and this bond is governed by three rules. The smell of their soulmate's blood is irresistible, its taste sweeter than anything else, and if the love is unrequited, it can be fatal. Fearing this inevitable bond, most vampires try to avoid it. But what happens when one of them discovers that their soulmate is a human who not only rejects them but loathes them?
