Kharis's skepticism towards tales of vampires was shattered when she stumbled upon an abandoned house in the heart of the forest, seeking refuge from the civil guards. In a twist of fate, she encountered a man whose features bore an otherworldly allure, distinct from the familiar Filipino faces, signifying his foreign origin. However, the startling revelation awaited Kharis under the full moon's crimson glow - the man she beheld was a vampire.Ambrogio, among the vampires who sought sanctuary in the Philippines from the turmoil in Jerusalem, suspected a traitorous leader within their ranks responsible for the systematic demise of their kind. To integrate into this foreign land, his trusted guardians arranged for an American businessman to facilitate his journey to the Philippines. Amidst the shadows of concealment with fellow vampires, Ambrogio acclimatized to his new surroundings over time. Unlike the stereotypical existence of emotionless vampires, his encounter with a mesmerizing beauty beneath the moon ignited a dormant sensation of a gradually awakening heart within him."If the initial attempt doesn't endure, give it another shot for the second time. If it falls through once more, maybe the third time will symbolize both the start and the finish." Even though Ambrogio pledged to wait for her in their next life, will she retain memories of her past loves with him in her first and second lives? Will he uphold his commitment to wait for her once more, or will doubts cloud his belief in their eventual union?"In my lifelessness, with no heartbeat to speak of, our meeting beneath the moon unveiled a revelation: I was fated to love you. Despite my unfamiliarity with love, I will patiently await your return, until my silent heart begins to beat once more."-Ambrogio Bathory
