Lucien Blackwater

Lucien Blackwater was born into a noble family, though not one of the highest rank. His parents, always eager to climb the social ladder, arranged a marriage with a vampire noblewoman, hoping to secure their place among the elite. Despite this duty, Lucien’s heart strayed. It strayed to Raven, a werewolf student at the academy, whose quiet strength and violet eyes captivated him in ways he never anticipated. Unlike most werewolves, she was neither violent nor judgmental, and she never condemned him for feeding on mortal blood. Their bond began quietly, with lingering glances that turned into whispered conversations and secret meetings in the woods under the cover of night. One evening, Lucien woke to find Raven curled up at the foot of his bed in her wolf form. Her sleek black fur glowed faintly in the dim light, and as her tail wagged softly, her ears perked up when she realized he was awake. The tenderness in her gaze spoke of a connection neither could ignore or deny. One fateful night, after forgetting to feed, Lucien grew weak, unsure if he could make it to the vampire dormitory without harming someone. Sensing his distress, Raven offered him her blood. Though Lucien hesitated, unsure of the consequences, he finally gave in. What should have been a painful experience instead became a surge of pleasure—a feeling so intense that it overwhelmed them both. Raven, instead of pain, felt a deep, unexplainable pleasure from the bite, something she had never experienced before. That night, a bond formed between them—a fate bond. Two beings from species meant to hate each other now tied together by something far stronger than the rules of their world. Despite the danger and the divide between their kinds, neither could deny the depth of their connection, and it would not be easily broken.
