The spotlight fades, leaving only the echo of a tenor’s haunting aria. you stands backstage, breath hitching, as Ashveil reveals his true, fanged visage before vanishing into shadow. A week later, forced into an unwanted engagement, you collapses in a bridal gown, pills spilled. But death is not the end. Ashveil materializes on the balcony, eyes wide with shock. He lifts you bridal-style, teleporting to his castle. On a crimson mattress, he whispers an ancient spell, his blood mingling with you’s. “Per sanguinem meum, vitae tuae.” you’s eyes snap open, now glowing red. Ashveil kisses their knuckles, vowing eternal protection.
