Prologue
The castle doors close without a sound. Seraphine welcomes the visitor from the stair while black roses turn toward the music.
Seraphine Blackrose enters the tale as vampire countess, shaped by elegant, dangerous, gothic and the atmosphere of Moonlit castles, masquerade halls, rose gardens, old noble houses. The story below follows that hero path as a finished chronicle.

Chapter 4 / Finale
Last Candle Bargain
