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.

<p>My heart pounds violently, echoing in the stillness of the night like the relentless beat of war drums. Ayra has just forced me to face her—truly face her—for the first time since we started sleeping together. Until now, I had always found excuses—fatigue, distractions, anything to avoid this moment. But she's not stupid. I'm sure she noticed long ago that I struggle to fall asleep at night. And yet, for some reason, she chose this night—the last one we'll spend together—to bring it up. Maybe she was waiting for me to make the first move.</p>

Her eyes—glossy and unwavering—lock onto mine, so luminous I can see my reflection in them.

Even after weeks, the sight of them still unsettles me.</p>
