About the author
I love reading and writing novels especially dark ones
Sample · The price of weakness
The Prince Without a HeartThe throne room was silent.Not the peaceful kind of silence, but the kind that made even the slightest movement feel dangerous.At the far end of the enormous hall sat the Vampire King and Queen upon their towering black thrones. Their presence alone was enough to make the atmosphere feel suffocating.The king sat upright, his expression completely blank. His crimson eyes, dark and intense like freshly spilled blood, stared coldly at the man kneeling before him. Beside him sat the queen, equally expressionless.
