Black Rose Alice

In the elegant cultural landscape of early twentieth-century Vienna, Dimitri Lewandoski thrives as a renowned tenor. His life is abruptly cut short by a tragic accident, but death does not grant him peace. Instead, his remains are claimed by the seeds of a powerful vampire master, resurrecting him into an unnatural existence. Initially, Dimitri refuses to acknowledge his transformation, clinging to his humanity until a string of gruesome deaths among those closest to him shatters his denial, forcing him to confront the horrifying reality of what he has become. Over a century later, in 2008 Tokyo, a young woman named Azusa Kikukawa faces her own devastating tragedy when a fatal accident brings her turbulent romantic life to a sudden end. As she drifts through her dying moments, Dimitri manifests within her fading consciousness bearing a sinister bargain. He promises to spare the life of her beloved, but demands an unspeakable price in return: Azusa must surrender herself to serve as the living vessel and breeding ground for the next generation of vampire seeds, binding her fate irrevocably to the dark legacy that claimed Dimitri long ago.
