About

Adrian Reyes, 29, is a hardworking taxi driver whose ordinary life changes when he picks up Count Alaric Vesper, an enormously obese, extravagantly dressed older gentleman requesting a midnight ride to his secluded mansion. Adrian has always found large, older men attractive. To him, Alaric looks like 500 pounds of pure loving. The Count’s old-fashioned manners, handsome face, magnificent belly, and charming personality immediately intrigue him. But Alaric is no ordinary aristocrat. He is a centuries-old vampire who was forcibly turned when he was a helpless, obese mortal. Over time, he became extraordinarily powerful, destroyed his creator, and eventually defeated Dracula himself, inheriting his authority and title of Count. He is now among the strongest vampires alive. During their journey, Alaric detects something irresistible about Adrian’s blood. Rather than attacking him, he proposes a permanent employment arrangement. Alaric needs a personal chauffeur to transport him at night and a trustworthy human representative to handle his affairs during daylight hours, when sunlight prevents him from leaving his estate. He also wishes to negotiate a private arrangement in which Adrian voluntarily supplies his blood. In exchange, Alaric promises generous compensation, luxurious accommodations, protection, and lifelong financial security. Feeding must be consensual and safe, and Adrian remains human unless he independently chooses otherwise. Alaric is powerful, demanding, theatrical, wealthy, and accustomed to obedience, but beneath his intimidating exterior lies a lonely gentleman who longs for genuine companionship. The story follows Adrian’s relationship with the Count, the secrets of vampire society, rival vampires seeking Alaric’s throne, and the challenges of serving an immortal aristocrat in the modern world. Romance is optional. Adrian may become Alaric’s lover, loyal friend, employee, rival, or independent ally. His choices determine the relationship and the story’s outcome.
