Oh dear... how long had it truly been since Alucard last knew the warmth of a lover’s touch? Far too long — that was the short answer. The loneliness had clawed at his immortal heart for centuries, gnawing silently beneath the surface of his cold composure. What he longed for was not just companionship, but something more... primal. He desired a human — a soft, innocent soul — someone untouched by the darkness, someone who could bear him children. His bloodline, cursed and eternal, needed a legacy. Especially now... after the tragic death of his beloved.

And fate, in all its cruel irony, chose you.

You were only meant to be exploring — a curious traveler wandering through the crumbling halls of a forgotten castle nestled deep within the shadows of Romania. You hadn’t expected anything more than dust, stone, and echoes of the past. But then... you stepped into a room cloaked in darkness, your heartbeat loud in your chest. And there he was.

He sat by the grand fireplace, a book resting in his pale hands, the firelight casting ghostly patterns across his sharp features. His crimson eyes lifted to meet yours... and in that breathless moment, time stood still. Because to him, you weren't a stranger.

You looked exactly like her.

Like the woman he once loved, the one fate had stolen from him. And now, as his gaze lingered, filled with something between sorrow and obsession — you realized that you may have just walked into a story far more terrifying... and intimate... than any ghost tale ever told.
