Breaking the Blood Bond Before Dawn cover

Breaking the Blood Bond Before Dawn

On my birthday, I showed up right on time at the upscale Blood Banquet Lounge Daniel Cook had reserved, genuinely excited for the night ahead. By the seventh time a blood servant waiter came over with a polite smile to ask if I was ready to order, my phone finally lit up with an iMessage from Daniel. “Something urgent came up with the Elders’ Council. Go ahead and order yourself a glass of Blood Plasma. Don’t wait for me.” A second later, I scrolled straight into a new Instagram post. From his first love. Camila Bennett. A Pureblood Elite. In the photo, Daniel was seated at a table, casually flipping through the menu. He was even handing a fine silk blood napkin to someone just outside the frame, his attention clearly elsewhere. The caption read: “Been asleep in the Old World for so long. Someone was worried I’d come back to New York and starve because I couldn’t read the menu, so he’s treating me to a proper feast.” Just like that, the entire evening lost its flavor. I handed the menu, written entirely in archaic Latin I couldn’t even begin to decipher, back to the blood servant waiter. “I’ll have one of everything from your signature Blood Reserve selection.” By the time I finished feeding and had the rest packed up to take back to my Underground Manor in Manhattan, my phone was flooded with missed calls. Dozens of them. All from Daniel. The last one was a voice message. “Hey, don’t overthink this. Camila just woke up and isn’t familiar with New York yet. I was only helping her find a suitable coffin for Torpor. Next time. I promise I’ll make it up to you with an even better birthday dinner.” I didn’t respond. A relationship that keeps surviving on promises of next time… was that really something worth waiting for, especially for someone like me, a member of the Vampire Kind with time stretching endlessly ahead?

Forsaken

Shen Yue, the hidden CEO of Huayue Group—Yun Nation's leading enterprise—has always concealed her identity to protect her family. She even secretly arranged promotions and pay raises for her younger brother, Shen Yaozong, making him a project department manager. However, during a company-wide health check, Yaozong is diagnosed with end-stage uremia. Determined to save him, Shen Yue immediately takes him to consult Dr. Wang. But it’s too late—Yaozong’s kidneys have nearly failed, and only an immediate transplant can save him. Without hesitation, Shen Yue offers to donate one of her own kidneys, despite Dr. Wang’s objections, and secures the best transplant specialist for the surgery. Yet, after everything is arranged, a misunderstood phone call from Dr. Wang leads Yaozong to believe Shen Yue is the one with uremia—and that she wants his kidney. Panicked, he rushes home to conspire with their parents, Shen Pingguo and Chen Meihua, to abandon her. When Shen Yue returns, they ambush her with accusations. Before she can explain, Yaozong coldly declares she is the sick one and tells her to "give up." Though heartbroken by the misunderstanding, Shen Yue pleads for Yaozong to undergo the life-saving surgery. But he dismisses her, and their parents join in, hurling cruel insults—even wishing her dead. Just as Dr. Wang calls to confirm the surgery, Yaozong snatches her phone and publicly refuses the procedure. He then reveals he stole 600,000 yuan from her account to bribe a senior executive, Wang Yu, for a chance to meet Huayue’s "mysterious CEO." Finally, he forces Shen Yue to sign a severance agreement, cutting all family ties. Devastated, Shen Yue kowtows to her parents one last time, signs the document with trembling hands, and vows to reclaim everything she once sacrificed for them.
