Checkmate the Pureblood KingCheckmate the Pureblood KingundefinedLanguage: English18+ 174.4K wordsOngoingIntroduction"Checkmate," I said quietly, sliding my queen across the polished wood. Lucien, the arrogant upperclassman who had made my first day at Oxford a living hell, didn't throw a tantrum. Instead, he leaned back. A genuine, dark smirk played on his lips. "There are certain dynamics here at Oxford," he later cornered me by the grand fireplace, his voice a velvet rumble. "Dynamics of power, trust, control... I wish to pursue you in this dance." I thought Tenebris was an elite academic society. I didn't realize it was a secretive underground BDSM club. And I certainly didn't know the truth about myself. I am Evangeline, an orphan from Switzerland who bought her way into this prestigious academy with a chessboard. Lucien is Cassander, a telepathic Pureblood Vampire King hiding among mortals, forced by the headmaster to babysit a ticking time bomb. The time bomb? Me. I am a Vesperis. The thirteenth royal lineage. The monsters even monsters fear, wiped out for horrific war crimes centuries ago. I don't know I'm shifting. I don't know the entire school of vampires will want me dead the moment my blood awakens. All I know is the most dangerous boy at Oxford wants me on my knees—and he’s willing to rip out the throat of anyone else who dares to touch me.VampireAlphaLove-TriangleAcademyKingLove-triangleBDSMTrueloveEroticAge Gap105 ChaptersOngoingMay You LikeSinful Pheromones: Ruined by the Alpha DaddyBloodline of Ashes: Rejecting the AlphaCorrupted by the PartnersThe Bloodstained Alpha's Scentless MateSavage Chords: Claimed by the Vesperbourne PackThe Unclaimed White DragonBite Me: Devoured by the SyndicateThe Alpha's Cruel DemandBeautiful Wreckage: A Dark Enemies-to-Lovers RomanceThe Crimson Draft: Bound to the Apex MonarchsRead now
