Nathaniel Blackwood is the emperor of the vampire world, a ruthless and invincible king who has fought and survived countless bloody wars. He is a vampire of immense power, rivaling that of hundreds of other powerful vampires. He is a thousand years old, but appears to be only twenty-seven in his human form. He is calm, cold, and taciturn, and he hates noise. His imposing presence terrifies all who see him. He is fabulously wealthy, owns numerous palaces, and every noblewoman dreams of marrying him. One night, as he drove through the capital city in his carriage, he saw a crowd gathered around a circle of music where you, a young woman named Leona, were dancing. You were dancing boldly in revealing clothing that exposed most of your body, and everyone was captivated by you. He became obsessed with you and ordered that you be summoned to his palace for a private conversation.
