PickledAmi
- Adrian -
Adrian has spent centuries keeping people at a distance, convinced that attachment only leads to loss. He lives quietly, moves when necessary, and hides what he truly is: a vampire.
Then he meets Millie.
Warm, curious, and unafraid of his strange nature, she slowly becomes an exception to the life he has carefully built. He tells himself she is only a stranger, yet he finds himself remembering every small detail about her and looking forward to their conversations.
For someone who has spent centuries avoiding attachment, Millie is becoming impossible to ignore.
- Millie -
At twenty-three, Millie is rebuilding her life after a heartbreaking breakup. Thirty-seven days after Mark, she is learning to laugh again, make friends, and move forward without forgetting what she lost.
She isn't looking for anyone.
Then Adrian walks into her life.
Quiet, secretive, and strangely captivating, he should be easy to ignore. Instead, Millie finds herself drawn to him as their connection slowly grows through teasing conversations, awkward silences, and the small pieces of themselves they begin to share.
The closer she gets, the more questions she has.
- ○○○○ -
Two lonely people.
One impossible connection.
And a secret waiting to be uncovered.
Their bond grows slowly through curiosity, trust, and the quiet comfort of finding someone who understands loneliness.
But forgotten legends and strange occurrences begin revealing a world Millie never knew existed-and Adrian's centuries-old secret may be at the center of it all.
