My Classmate, My Crimson Eternity
READING AGE 18+
Under a gray sky and a light drizzle, young Luvian walked hand-in-hand with her father down a desolate street. She appeared to be just an ordinary middle school student—quiet, aloof, and often lost in thought. However, her ageless face, inexhaustible youth, and cursed, immortal soul already revealed that she was no ordinary person. She was thirsty, but water couldn't quench her thirst; she was hungry, but food was hard to swallow; she was weary, but the earth refused to shelter her in her eternal slumber. She was an anomaly walking in the sunlight, a lonely figure trying to hide her true identity in the human world.
Luvian had a human father, David, a warm home, and a best friend, Alice. Alice, innocent and cheerful, was her only connection to the "normal" world. Luvian tried hard to play the role of an ordinary schoolgirl: going to school, eating, going to KFC with Alice, and daydreaming in the library. Yet, she always found herself involuntarily "silent"—not daydreaming, but immersed in the lingering memories and sense of alienation from her long life. Whenever she easily outran everyone in PE class, whenever she faced the praise and envy of her classmates, what welled up inside her wasn't pride, but self-loathing as a "cheater"—her extraordinary ability was a curse she couldn't escape, an insurmountable chasm between her and humanity.
Night is the time when another world awakens. She once transformed a dying woman into a vampire on a rainy night, granting her immortality and a bloodthirsty instinct, leaving only the admonition: "Cherish other people's lives as you would your own." Her entanglement with the vampire world is far from over. A vampire calling herself Lisa, with a lifespan of over 1,500 years, haunts her, constantly intruding into her life with her piercing laughter and unpredictable intentions. And a bizarre "vampire murder" in the village drags Luvian into an even deeper vortex.
The threads of fate quietly intertwine. Alice's brother, Kyle, a dedicated vampire hunter, accidentally stumbles upon Luvian's ancient castle—once the legendary home of Count Dracula—while hunting vampires. Kyle is deeply suspicious of Luvian's identity, yet captivated by her calm and mysterious nature beyond her years. At the "Vampire Diner"—a sinister place truly open to vampires only at night—Luvian not only encounters Lisa and the young vampire Bourne she "picked up," but also meets the charming but equally vampire Sinmo. Here, she learns that the diner's owner is a powerful member of the Camarilla, and that Lisa, the diner, and the table called "The Feast" share a bloody past spanning millennia—she was once a sacrifice in a pagan ritual, reborn as a vampire after being drained of her blood.
As the Camarilla's activities increase, the millennia-old balance between the Camarilla and the Camarilla is threatened. Kyle and his fellow hunters sense the impending crisis. Luvian, a girl who walks between sunlight and darkness, between humans and vampires, is forced to confront her past and true identity. The necklace she gives Alice, named "Blood Eye," hides the curse and power of a second-generation vampire; her seemingly adversarial relationship with Lisa conceals a far more complex and ancient past; her guilt and memories of her deceased human boyfriend are wounds she refuses to reopen.
Luvian stands at a crossroads. On one side lies the warmth of humanity she cherishes: her father's love, Alice's friendship, and Kyle's growing protectiveness; on the other, her inseparable vampire nature and the turbulent conflicts of the vampire world. She longs to become a true "Luvian," a girl who ages, dies, and experiences ordinary happiness, but the shadows of the past and the current crisis surge forth like a tide. As the threat of the Camarilla looms close, as her human friends are in danger, and as hunters, the Camarilla, the Camarilla, and vampires like Sinmo with unclear motives all appear, Luvian must choose: to continue hiding and escaping, or to confront her cursed power and destiny, and to step into the lonely and eternal war that has long been prepared for her, in order to protect her loved ones and the balance of two worlds.
This is a story about loneliness, identity, and choices. A vampire girl who longs to be human, under the sunshine of youth, burdened by a thousand years of shadow, searches for her own meaning of "existence."

"Why are you spacing out again! You seem to be spacing out a lot lately, is something on your mind?" Alice caught me red-handed again.
"Alice's right, I think you're troubled too." Felix then secretly leaned close to my ear and whispered, "Do you have a boyfriend?"
"It's nothing." I said those two words again……
