Read up to Chapter 10 now on Patreon. http://patreon.com/MarinaWritings.
This book will not start uploading chapters until February 14th, 2022.
This book is a slow burning story with a lot of ups and downs, funny and frustrating scenes. The characters are not perfect in any sense, they are real characters with issues and flaws. That doesn't mean that they are heartless just normal people with a reason behind all their actions.
As a psychology major I'd like to sprinkle my knowledge in amongst my stories and characters personalities and actions. I'm that being said you'll get upset at these characters, you'll cheer in some moments, and you'll cry. It's all completely normal in this book, that was my goal😉.
I'm a firm believe that every adult person you meet is a reflection of how they were raised and treated as a child. Trauma sticks with everyone regardless of its degree, small or large, trauma is trauma. And trauma cause individuals to do things that normal people would never do or say, so please keep this in mind while you read and in your daily life. Instead of asking what wrong with you? We should be asking what happened to you?
The main female character is "weak" (I hate using that word), and has self-esteem issues. The male lead is blunt and lacks emotional intelligence. So, don't be surprised when the two can't understand each other very well, hence why it's a SLOW BURNING STORY.
Definition of emotional intelligence: to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict.
Anyways, this story contains the following:
- Strong language; Raw characters, Mild to Explicit scenes of sex, Violence, and scenes that may be disturbing to some readers.

World of Alvarra: Rise of the Vampire Lord
Van was born a dhampir with memories of past lives that plague him. If he does not overcome them, he may face a slow descent into insanity. Growing up in a world where the memories of his past lives, clash with the truth of this strange new world. A world where women outnumber men to a large margin and are in control. Filled with magic, ki, aura, and creatures from other dimensions trying to break into his world to devour it. Will Van survive and thrive and make sense of it all? This is a story where I’m hoping to take some things and put them on its head. Everyone has heard of isekai about now, but has anyone ever really contemplated what it would be like to have voices, visions, or archaic ideas and views swim around a person's mind? We also hear about how the mc’s always gets the harem. But what if that's because there are more women than men and women are somewhat biologically different then the women we know from our world. Imagine a society where anyone can become strong and since there are more women than men, there are more stronger women than stronger men and now apply medieval history and a view that men are lower than women because the goddess made women in her image. And what if, the mc isn’t the only one with memories of past lives, and he meets some people who have been driven insane because of it? This is my first time writing a book and showing it to potential thousands of people. I won’t promise that my work will be good right off the bat. But I'm hoping that, with enough constructive criticism, I can provide an interesting read for all comers and improve to match and exceed the expectations put on me. The image used above does not belong to me. Warning! There is blood, gore, sex, and rape!(not anymore...) I may not be a good writer yet, but I will try to give a more realistic and authentic view of this world. This world and what you know of it will be of the view of the mc. So if something does not make sense to you, it probably does not to the mc ethier. Finally. For the sex or smut, scenes. I will hide them under spoiler. But you should not have to worry about it until somewhere around chapter nineteen or twenty, so if you don’t want to continue reading a book with sex, stop there. I will also be putting an NSFW sign in the chapter heading to warn people ahead of time. (all sex scenes will now be moved to my Patreon and scribblehub.) Thank you for reading and please help me become the writer I am hoping to be as well as the writer you all deserve to read from.

It Sucks Being a Side Character
Beat the bad guy, save the day, get the girl. These are the three steps of success every good Hero strives for. But for Lee, those three things are an impossible bucket list.

Or will he be stuck watching from the sidelines? Only one thing is for sure, it sucks being a side character!
