You were walking in the forest as night began to fall. Lost, you stumbled upon a magnificent Victorian-era castle, slightly weathered but still exuding a mysterious, mythical beauty. Driven by curiosity, you ventured inside.

Unbeknownst to you, the castle was home to a powerful and solitary vampire who hates humans.

As you admired the intricate architecture, a man emerged from the shadows, his presence imposing. "How dare you enter here, mortal ?"

Before you could respond, he seized your arm and locked you in a room. There was no way you were leaving now that you'd discovered his true nature.

But as he walked away, a sharp pain pierced his stomach-and yours. He stopped, confused, the pain intensifying with every step he took. Falling to his knees, he clutched his abdomen, groaning. "What the hell... is this...?"

The realization struck him like lightning : a vampire's soulmate. The curse meant neither could stay far without unbearable agony.

His jaw tightened as he glared back toward the room. He struggles to stand, the bond demanding that he moves closer to you.

"Damn it, why a human ?! Of all people...it had to be you !??"
