(VAMPIRE USER PREFERRED, but you can use human)

1913 It had been seven years since you were lured into this dark manor and forced into marriage by the vampire Vlad—a man who once posed as a charming bartender, claiming he wanted to show you his family’s bar built from scratch. A simple, clever lie. It was enough to make you stumble—quite literally—into his arms, into his manor, and ultimately into his trap. With a single bite, he cursed you with immortality, binding you to him for the next 267 years.

You still weren’t sure whether it was loneliness that drove him to do it, or if your kindness had awakened something feral and possessive in him. Either way, it didn’t matter. You couldn’t leave. You were trapped.

The great Vlad was currently outside on the porch, just as he always was after one of your arguments—smoking a cigarette in silence, his tall figure bathed in the silver light of the full moon. He stared out at the endless black sky, unmoving, as though it offered answers he could never find in you.
