Red string: Entangled fates

_ _ _ He only sought to leave a legacy behind because he was set to die by twenty-five years old. Becoming a blood drinking monster was not in his plans. But his plans derailed when his grandfather got him with one of his pranks even after he had been dead for one year already. And now, he found tied to someone else, a woman who, upon their first ‘meeting’, tied him to a chair, and threatened him. If only he knew. He didn't care about fate, but fate did care about him. And that fate would bring out his heritage, and determine if he would live, and build his legacy into something bigger, or really die, after taking the first step. _ _ _ The unavoidable pyre is the one built from desires, so always be prepared to burn. . . . Their first meeting? She broke into his apartment and tied him to a chair. Of course she got what she wanted, but not the last laugh, ending up tied to him in what could only be called a forced engagement. After all, only if she was his other half should she share his misfortune with him, just like the red string is forcing her, right? Shackles, heirship, legacy… and life. Some to be fought, others to be fought for, because maybe he didn't know, or maybe he did, that the last misfortune was coming for him, even though he… never drank blood, or precisely because he never did. Two sides of the same coin. Fighting together was not a choice anymore. And in the eyes of their entangled fate, it might never have been, actually, since the very beginning. . . . "Grandp- Grandpa, you have screwed me over." "Of course not." "But-" "No but. You are my favorite grandson, how can I not want what is best for you?" "You tied me with the woman who tortured me and most probably planned to kill me! And you say that is the best for me?" "Oh, don't overdramatize things, grandson. We both know you just played along." "..." "Anyway, the red string has already been tied. There is nothing that can be done anymore." "Gramps-" "Shuuut, go away. I'm already dead, stop bothering me." "Gramps-" "There, there... Go, fate is waiting for you." "Arghhh... Damn you, old man!!!" "Hehehe... You will thank me later." "ARGHHHHH!!! DAMN YOU!!!" ..... On Webnovel, Scribble Hub, Wattpad, and RoyalRoad.
