In the vampire-ruled kingdom of Mildelar, the Blood Games stand as the ultimate form of entertainment—savage battles between familiars, humans bound to their vampire masters through blood pacts. Far more than mere spectacles, these brutal fights determine the prestige of noble families, shaping their power and influence across the realm. Lyon, a young human saved from death by a blood pact with the alluring Arya Valakys—one of the king’s daughters—is unwillingly thrust into this cruel world. Bound to his mistress, he is forced into relentless battles to elevate her standing.

She unsettles me more than our attackers themselves.

I'm afraid—a visceral fear, heavier than anything I've ever felt. It paralyzes me, locking every muscle in place. My body trembles, seized by an icy grip that sends shivers deep into my core. Ayra is my master, and the cyclone of darkness engulfing the battlefield is her creation, just like the black lightning crackling around her. But then… why does she terrify me so much? As if something dreadful is about to befall me.
