scarlet vows( bl )
In a world ravaged by war, werewolves have fallen to ruin, their kind slaughtered and sold into slavery. Zain, an omega, is dragged to the black-market auction, his pack dead, his strength shattered, his future sealed in chains. Blindfolded and exposed before an audience of masked monsters—vampires, demons, witches, and alphas—he prepares for the cruel fate of the unsold: brutal execution.
But the moment he steps onto the auction stage, a presence unlike any other suffocates the room. Dark. Cold. Inhuman.
A single bidder steps forward. He does not negotiate. He does not hesitate. He simply claims.
When the blindfold falls, Zain finds himself staring at a man draped in wealth but cloaked in secrecy—his face hidden beneath an obsidian and gold mask. He is not a vampire, nor a wolf. His scent is intoxicating, his aura suffocating, his touch burning cold.
And Zain’s wolf purrs at the sight of him.
Mate.
But this is no fairy-tale bond. His new master is unreadable, dangerous, something far beyond his understanding. A creature that should not exist.
And now, Zain belongs to him.
But was he purchased out of curriosity?
