The Bloodthirsty Bride Devours the King
血に飢えた花嫁は王を喰らう
“I hate vampires.” Kate’s wedding night with the husband who pushed her away after learning that she harbored the soul of a vampire should have been cold and empty... or so it seemed. In an age of war, to protect her kingdom from attacks by a hostile nation, Kate, the princess priestess of the Kingdom of Arub, took into her body the power of the Progenitor Vampire, which had long been sealed underground. Although she once succeeded in driving back the enemy with that overwhelming power, Kate feared they would target her again. So she proposed to Luca, the king of the most powerful nation on the continent, offering her own power as a bargaining chip, and the two enter into a contract marriage. However, Luca’s attitude as her new husband is cold and distant, and he openly rejects her, saying, “I hate vampires.” After a hollow, loveless wedding, their first night arrives. When Kate visits Luca’s room, the faint scent of blood coming from him awakens her vampiric instincts, sending her bloodlust into a frenzy. The act of drinking blood brings with it a sweet aphrodisiac effect, and the two end up surrendering to their instincts as their bodies entwine... Thus begins her unwanted relationship with a king who despises vampires. Caught between contract and instinct, can love truly bloom?
