Akira Yumi Clemente has been living her life resenting the vampires who killed her entire family. There was no moment she stopped thinking of the day she could wipe the vampires' existence. Akira was just one step closer to it; she had to become the leader of her clan. However, her plan got messed up when the vampire king sent a letter to her grandfather. She had to wed the vampire crown prince, her mortal enemy, in four months. After deliberating it in a bar, she decided to change her plans; she must marry the vampire prince and kill every vampire on their wedding day. That night, she met a man named Leon, who she had asked for a kiss with the intention of not letting the vampire crown prince be her first kiss. She'd rather kiss an ordinary human stranger than her enemy—little did she know that the stranger she kissed was the vampire crown prince. The vengeful Akira, what will be her life when she wakes up in a stranger's bed thinking something happened between them? And on top of that, what will be her decision if she finds out Leon is the vampire prince? Will she choose to let her desire for revenge be her way or play the game Leon had presented to her?

When she is finally alone, she gets up from the bed and prepares herself. She set aside her emotion—anger.It didn’t take too long for her to get ready. When she came out of the room, as expected, Leon was already waiting for her and Loren, who would lead them to the interrogation room. It wasn’t far enough for them to use a car, they just walked for five minutes until they arrived. It was located at the end of the camp—where no one could easily sneak in as well as spy on the interrogation room since it was heavily guarded. At first, the three of them entered a tent that looked ordinary, however, when they got in, what greeted them was an elevator that seemed rusty and could have collapsed anytime. Leon is confused but Akira and Loren remain composed since they have been here before.Loren tapped her identification card on the right side of the e
Leon was sitting on the chair beside the bed where Akira was lying unconscious. He looked at her helplessly as he slowly held her hands. He immediately felt that warmth that he had dreamt of before. Leon then leaned in, and with both his hands now, he held her hand tight. “Wake up, Akira. Please,” he whispers as he shuts his eyes. It has been two days since Akira fell unconscious on the day of their mission. After restraining the target damphir in the parking lot, Leon immediately goes after Akira, only to find her in a fight with the dark damphir. And that's when Leon made himself a shield to protect her. But… “I'm sorry I couldn't protect you well," he whispered again. Tiredness could be seen on his face. He has bloodshot eyes, a sign that he cried for some time. His droopy shoulders replaced his well-mannered posture. He stayed in that position for a minute until he gazed at Akira's face when he felt a gaze. His eyes stopped at the golden eyes that were looking at him. A colo
The operation started. Akira was the bait, while Leon and Loren were to wait and ambush the damphir in the bar. They just arrived at the parking lot of the bar. Akira was seated in the passenger seat, unbuckling her seatbelt. “Be careful, Akira.” Suddenly, Leon left after saying that. Akira was gazing after him and felt strange. It kept happening, the sudden unwelcome feelings again. She shrugged her thoughts and soon left the car with Loren, who had heard what had just happened. “It’s best if you two are on the bar's upper level so that you guys can see me on the dance floor. I’ll be directing the attention on me so you’ll easily see me.” Akira had said, tucking the strand of her hair on her ear. Loren nodded, while Leon did not respond and only stared at her. That made Akira gulped and then looked away. “Let’s see each other after this….” Akira said and finally left the two. As usual, it was noisy inside the bar. But unlike before, when Akira visited here, she felt somethin
The morning came, and Akira already prepared herself. Today is the day they will depart to Asaiah night bar to investigate. She was wearing a soldier uniform of her clan. It was a spare clothes since all her clothes were smashed together in the car when ambushed. Akira looked at the right side of her bed, Leon’s bed. He was nowhere to be found after last night. ‘But if it wasn’t for your grandfather’s order, would you still stay here in one tent with me?’ Leon’s question last night popped out from Akira’s thought. She stopped cleaning her lanesra. Her brows arched, remembering how she couldn’t answer. It was just one question, yet her mind and heart fought—to find an exact answer. She was wondering why she couldn’t answer. She could’ve said she would not stay and that staying in one room with Leon frustrates and repulse her. She could’ve said that but remained silent until he left. ‘Why didn’t I reject his question?’ Akira pursed her lips and then continued to clean her lanesra
Akira along with Leon, two elders, and the three soldiers earlier have been listening to the report that was being presented by the general, Cedrick. ‘He was just appointed yesterday and yet he prepared all of this?’ Akira thought and scanned the organized reports in front of her. She couldn’t believe that the general was capable of doing a great job upon being appointed. “Based on the investigation of our soldiers, there are three places which have increased reports of the sighting of dhampir as well as missing women.” Cedrick, looking at the map, encircled the three places with a red marker.Akira continued to listen as she stared at the three places.She then chuckled and the attention was brought to her.“Those three places are….”“Yes, what you are thinking is right.” Cedrick suddenly said, pointing to the three places again, “It’s near the Clemente clan. At first, the soldiers aren’t able to realize this because the interval of the missing women is random and the cases are too
Akira firmly closed her eyes when Leon bit her neck. She had to hold her breath the moment she felt it, the pain— followed by the increasing temperature of her neck and her heart rate increasing. Her mind wasn’t in chaos like the last time and most of all, she…didn't feel repulsed. Akira opened her eyes when she felt that he was done. She was about to touch her neck when Leon grabbed her arm. Her heart was shocked because she almost instinctively looked at him. She’s not letting herself look at him for a while, especially if there is still blood in his mouth. The last time she looked, she immediately passed out after seeing the blood on Leon’s lips. “Don’t touch it for now,” Leon said in his soft voice. “Alright…” She responded, still not looking at him. Leon noticed this and did not remove his hands from Akira’s arm. He only stares at her. “Why are you not looking at me?” He asked, confused and anxious that maybe, Akira felt disgusted at the sight. Akira sighed as she looked at
The rain eventually poured as if telling Akira that she didn't have much of a choice but to let Leon carry her. Akira and Leon stare at each other under the pouring rain. It was then that Leon offered his hand—reaching for hers. “Will you let me carry you now?” Leon said as a warm smile flashed in his mouth. Akira avoided his gaze but eventually gave in. She reaches out her hand to him and then slowly, Leon walks in front of her. The heartbeat that Akira had heard was vivid once again—but this time, she knew that it was hers. Leon carried her—it was a bridal-style carry. Akira was, of course, awkward in that position. The closeness with him was enough to trouble her mind and there followed the thoughts that she couldn't even think of back then. “You should hold on well, Akira. At this rate, I'm afraid you'll fall.” Leon remarked when Akira was not holding onto him. Akira immediately thought of that time when they were escaping and fighting the vampires. The speed of that time wa
It has been an hour since they left the mansion. Leon, who was facing front, took a glance at Akira who had been silent. He found her sleeping while there were reports in her hand. Leon slowed the car and breathed in while staring at her. Surely, Akira let her guard down around him or maybe she was too tired, especially after their fight. Leon then stopped the car. He unbuckled his seatbelt and got near Akira who he noticed was uncomfortable in her position. Leon removed the reports that Akira was carrying and placed them somewhere. After that, he placed his hands on her head and slowly, brought her to a more comfortable position. Leon’s attention was caught by the gun, placed near Akira’s side. He stared at it for a while and when he broke that gaze, he felt the tension coming from Akira. “What the hell are you doing?” Akira said while glaring at Leon who was in front of her. Leon immediately turned his gaze which caught Akira off guard. Seeing his face up close was enough to ma
Akira once again woke up in her room. The memories of what had happened during the time she intended to kill Leon came rushing in on her mind as if embarrassing her first in the morning. She had to cover herself with a pillow to let out her internal screaming. She could not believe she had lost, and one of her three chances was gone. There were only two chances left. Akira irritatedly sat, her black hair quite messy, “That vamp...” She whispered and recalled what Leon did then: "...he sure doesn’t want to die. How dare he use jiu-jitsu that time.” Akira let out a deep sigh as she caressed her neck. ‘I should’ve used a weapon...that dagger.’ Akira thought with a grim expression on her face. She’s regretting now that she didn’t use weapons. Although it hurts her pride, she can’t deny it because Leon’s strength and ability clearly surpass the strength of a human—and maybe, Leon’s strength is much more than his race since he is the vampire crown prince. And one more bothered Akira, wh
[At the castle inside the Riparian Zone]“Leon, my son.” A stern voice greeted Leon as soon as he stood before his so-called father, sitting in the swivel chair. The room was dark, and his father's face couldn't be seen. Only the blood-red eyes were visible as if it was a monster lurking in the meadow.Leon didn't respond. He had no will to do so, especially since he didn't consider the man in front of him his father.
