Beautiful manga, being the first yaoi manga I've read, its already made a special place on my heart...
First things first, no NTR!
This is one of the longest reviews I've done in my life, I hope it can make you read this manga, because you must read it if you like reading mangas :P
There are some +18 scenes making the manga better in my opinion, but they are not long as the sum other mangas have. It rather has more scenes tho.
Art style is very good I mean REALLY good I love it!
Story has some flaws but its pretty fun to read.
I know some people like story over sex, and this has a good story while still having some sex scenes.
Its good because its not just a harem and the MC who is a frickn playboy from birth...
Towards end they overkilled the flashbacks, It got annoying.
Story: 7/10
Art style: 10/10
MC: 8/10
Love Interest: 9/10
Sex Scenes: 7.5/10
Main bad character: 6/10
Ending: 4/10
Overall: 8.5/10
-----Spoiler Alert-----
In my opinion Main bad character and Ending could've been better.
I dunno if it is only me but but ending is really shit I mean one of the worst I've read.
He could've just hide? Or the Love interest is a fuckn Overlord he can easily live without anything bad happening to him.
The vampires are surely going to extinct in some point but its not on the near future and we can see Shell can live in a hot-ish place so Its not in the near future.
I don't remember how Ellie lost his one eye? They didn't show it.
The ending is rushed like I think It could've been at least 15-30 chapters more. 
------End of the Spoiler------
Like I said this is the first BL/Yaoi manga I have read and I am very happy I read a good one.
I wanted this comic to be longer tbh like 90 chapters would've been nice because the art style is so good.
Unfortunately the creator doesn't have any other mangas.
Anyways this is the end of my review,
I can highly recommend this manga to literally everyone.

I expected this manhwa to be solely about BDSM and explicit sex, but it is more than that. It has an impressive, well-developed plot with dramatic backstories. Also, all of the characters are exceptionally well-written too, and each character's relationship has a different dynamic. The art style is absolutely stunning. I really enjoyed it more than I expected to. Even still, my heart broke into a thousand pieces a couple of times for Cinderella, who was only trying to save his sister.

I simply love Eric (One) and Shell; their relationship is beautifully blossoming and slowly growing as the story progresses, and it's great to see them overcome their fears and worries. Despite the fact that the story is heartwarming, it is also bittersweet. I think Eric's parents, White and Ellie, had a beautiful and touching love story that makes me cry just thinking about them. I actually like Humpty Dumpty as an atagonist. He's an abused human that wants to wipe off the vampire race. I sympathise with him and understand where he's coming from. However, I'm not sure why he kills White.

I don't know where to start, The story? Character? Or Art? It's all perfect. 

This manhwa took such an unexpected turn, From a kinky BDSM story to a tragedy filled and bittersweet story. It's impressive how the author can mix smut, fluff, thrill, and tragedy, it's great storytelling.

The protagonist are both likable, Shell is so cute and pretty, he makes me want to protect him. The character development of One was amazing.

Though, I didn't like the ending, not because it was bad or anything... Just... I'm a bit sad. Just thinking how Shell and One couldn't live and love each other openly just breaks my heart but it's also very beautiful and realistic how not everything goes their way.

(P.S. One really pulled a Code Geass on us.)

This was a hot smut filled yaoi with some bdsm in it and I just wish there was more. The story was decent tho I didn't care for the ending too much but still cute. I definitely recommend reading this if you're into bdsm, smut, yaoi and vampires. Warning ⚠️ : some characters are children and/ or look like children and sexual acts depicted, thought of, or shown. 

**OVERVIEW AND SPOILERS **

Eric's hair upgrade was so hot I wished he looked like that from the start. I wish there would've been a side story of what could've been if his parents didn't die, that would be cute. I wished Shell could keep Eric by his side and not far away at the end :((  Definitely hot smut I reread just to skim that xD

I’m still reading it but it’s pretty great. Especially if you like really kinky sex between gay men. Although sometimes I fell it gets a little too kinky. But besides all that the stories pretty interesting, and the characters are likeable. Overall great manga for me so far.
