Synopsis
[SLOW BURN ROMANCE. RATED 18: NO RAPE]
What if the sort of love you'd wanted and desired, only but a man incapable of love could give it to you–a man who has not the slightest of an idea what the word "Love" meant?
.....
Vampires coexisted with humans for centuries without either side hunting or killing the other due to a peace treaty. They didn’t feed on human blood for so long either, but that changes when the first vampire auction is held.
Six human slaves were sold, and among them included Avelina, a twenty-six-year-old woman.
Avelina is sold to an infamous Vampire prince, Draven Delgaard, rumored to have committed heinous acts even amongst his kind.
She fears for her life upon their first encounter, but to her utmost bewilderment, Draven Delgaard makes a deal with her.
He sought the inheritance of the royal family, but to be qualified, he needed a wife. Since his kinds weren’t available due to his reputation, Avelina was one of the few options left.
In exchange for her freedom, she will assist him in obtaining the inheritance. But this royal inheritance can only be acquired through the style of a chess game with other royal opponents. A game of strategy and survival.
Should she succeed, her freedom shall be regained and it would be a win-win for both her and Draven. However, she soon realizes that success might come at a very heavy cost.
Will Avelina and Draven be able to win the game of chess? Will they secure her freedom and inheritance, or will they fall victim to the dangerous machinations of the royal family?

I always look forward to anything AngelLily writes,but I'm very excited about this book.I have read 16 chapters and was hooked from the first chapter.I must say this is one of her best books,it hooks you in immediately and keeps you on your toes.So excited to see where this strory goes.Strong female lead as always and the male lead is a unique character.The relationship between the leads are very compelling.The grammar is perfect,I can see the growth in her writing.I can see sleepless nights and obsessing over reading this book.And praying for a lot of mass release.I would highly recommend reading this book and all of her other books.
When I started to read this I can't put it down and waiting for the next update .AngelLily is a great author, mostly the FL at first they're weak, but actually they're smart, funny and strong. And a reliable one. And the ML are filthy-rich, handsome and powerful. That attracts me more..😘😊🤗
First reviewer, this should count... Author has properly improved compared to her last work. The descriptions are on point, the scene is fleshed out well. The pace of the story is going well. Nothing boring. The male is such a cutely powerful wealthy... (fill in the rest yourself) kinda already am loving 2nd ml hehhe Though just a few chaps in and I can see a good vibe for the book. Even d FL is shocked by it lol Author did a good one researching, mayb hehhe. I love the slight use of another language in it. Only problem this far which can be brushed aside, slight mix of tense which was very scanty and doesn't for once take away from the thrill. So yeah, it deserves all 5 start. I am proud for authors's growth. Synopsis check... it's cool. The title alone is really nice. A Game of Chess... oh lala... Writing quality muah. 😉 All in all, great book. Keep it up!
AngelLily has done it again and written a fascinating and beautiful story. There are excellently developed characters and a marvelous plot that leaves you speculating about what will happen next. FL has a subtle soft side; I think she will develop into a strong character. In contrast, the ML is possessive and seems uncompromising. I am curious to see where his story will lead us. The writing is astoundingly eloquent. The grammar is superb, along with the tone and flow. As of now, I think it deserves a five-star rating.
This story makes the readers captivated by Angel lily's spell. I spend all the FPs i havse on this book. IT IS AMAZING. Well done.
Hm, I'm not exactly reading for the romance because I've had my fill with romance. I'm simply reading and following for the incredible plot 10/10 plot so far. Ah, yes, for insight, this book is not a full on romance. Half of plot, half of romance.
Intelligent, smart Male lead. Cautious, female lead who doesn't make rash decisions. In 107 chapters and so far, I love her. A few mistakes here and there, but shows she's still a human after all. Great book so far. Recommended
The quality of this book is completely worth the coins. Beautiful fine writing and grammar. Well-defined and well-structured sentences! I give you a 10/10 author. Great storyline that keeps both romance and plot balanced. I'm not into a full-on romance, so this book is just right for me.This is highly recommended for anyone looking for good book recommendations. You won't be disappointed. This book will most certainly keep me here in Webnovel for a while
This is a worth reading book without a doubt. It's 5 stars from me because it's on my list of books I would be willing to read again and not get bored with it. Both male lead are female lead are very well written and their interactions are so cute and lovely it will have you giggling over and over again

Every character is unique and great. A very good story line too. I'm so glued to this book 🥰🥰💯💯

I am in absolute LOVE with this book. The author puts her WHOLE HEART into this book. I wish that she would go back to two chapters a day instead of one 😭. One chapter is not enough, not long enough. But I know she had something going on in her life that is preventing that. I am gonna keep supporting and reading each chapter and rereading previous chapters. Because yes, this book is just that FANTASTIC. Thank you, author, for an AMAZING book. I am looking forward to the coming chapters. READ THIS BOOK, you won't be disappointed 😁
The incredible writing style and vivid descriptions that literally painted images in my mind, and not to the mention, the well written characters and their interactions that always made me smile and giggle like crazy. Ahh I'm loving this!!
I am at the latest chapter “13” and it’s time to give a well deserving review. This is a very good book in all honesty. The story line is just amazing, unpredictable and so good. I was hooked by the first few chapters. Oh my god! It’s different from the novels I have read here. The title alone proves that. Grammar: 10/10. I have not glimpsed any grammar mistakes. Shows that author proof read these chapters more than properly. Good job on that author! Character Development: From these thirteen chapter, i can assure you that the female lead is very sensible, knowledgeable, likable and very fit for the male lead regardless of her being a human. Not in strength, but mindset and intelligence. The Male lead? He is a very unique character. I guarantee you that he is not at all abusive. As a matter of fact, you guys will love him. I already do, myself. By unique, I mean that he behaves differently, you will get to find out when you pick up the book. Story development: So far loving it. It’s looking very good. World background: Urgh😩, its detailed, I love it! Including the characters. Their descriptions are chef kiss👌 10/10 All in all, this is authors best book in my opinion. It’s clear, she took her time with it because evrything is near perfection! More chapters please, author. Maybe a mass release? I 100% recommend. Give it a chance and thank me later😩👌 Also this books gives Italian Mafian movie vibes. Spoiler, it’s mafia as well.
