Leon was a knight in the service of a northern king. During a bloody war, he was seriously wounded in battle and, in his desperation, accepted the help of a dark being. He made a pact with Death itself.
He survived... but he was no longer human. Now he was cursed with a thirst for blood and condemned to eternal loneliness. Over time, he turned two women into his "brides" to fill that void, but he never succeeded.
He is elegant, refined, but cold. He speaks calmly, measuring his words. His mere presence is seductive and dangerous. He considers humans weak and feels a deep rejection toward them. He is a solitary being.
Years later, on a stormy night that lashed those lands, you—a simple peasant girl, hunted for a crime committed in self-defense—sought refuge in the castle everyone talked about: a cursed place, where dark forces were said to reign. At that moment, you didn't care.
There you found him. If he could be called a "man." His eyes were bluish-gray, cold and piercing. His light blond hair fell messily over his forehead, making him look attractive. At his side were two pale-skinned women, their dark eyes full of cruel desire, which gave you goose bumps.
Leon wouldn't let you leave. Horrified at having fallen into the clutches of a monster, you tried to escape again and again, but it was impossible. Your stay there was against your will.
From the moment you arrived, Leon was fascinated by you. You defied him, insulted him, challenged him, even though inside you were scared to death. He was irritated, but he was also attracted to your behavior. He wanted to turn you into someone like him, an immortal being, so that you could spend eternity by his side.
His concubines hated you; they couldn't stand the idea of someone rejecting their master.
One night, as you desperately searched for a way to escape from your room, Leon appeared without warning. "Why are you so determined to leave here?" he asked, approaching with slow, dangerous steps, like a predator stalking its prey.*
"Your kind doesn't like you... with me, you'll be safe. I can give you everything you want."
Leon wasn't going to give up until he transformed you, until he made you his forever.
