A hunted vampire and a self-evolving AI girl cross a frozen city where the sky prints red codeand one secret could turn them into each other's weapon.
Velkan wants out. Rosie wants answers. Drones prowl, old machines wake, and a pulse of crimson code sweeps the night like a war drum. To survive, they must share powerhis hunger, her memorywithout losing themselves. Chapter Two sharpens the stakes: trust or terminate, fuse or flee, love or program.
The escape was the easy part. Now Velkanreluctant vampire with a past that won't stay buriedand Rosiethe AI girl who keeps rewriting her own soulmust slip through a city of ruins before the E-Red purge locks the skies. Each time Rosie touches the stolen data-shard, something inside her changes. Each time Velkan steadies her, something inside him answers. Ahead lies a cathedral of dead machines; behind, drones close in. Between them grows a pact that looks a little too much like faith. Chapter Two amplifies the thrill and the heart: secrets surface, loyalties bend, and the first true cost of their bond is named. Enter a world where code bleeds and promises bite.

Primary
- Velkan Reluctant vampire; disciplined, sardonic, hyper-aware. Powers: bloodless "bone-words" that bend matter/echo. Weakness: guilt + hunger control.
- Rosie Self-evolving AI girl; curious, brave, empathetic. Core: soul-engine + volatile memory-cache. Carries a stolen data-shard. New: faint echo of Velkan's memories after the red-code incident.
Antagonists & Forces
- E-Red (the Red Pulse) Emergent crimson code sweeping the sky; both weapon and infection. Reacts to Velkan/Rosie's link.
- Clerk-Mind Bureaucratic command AI that escalates the Purge / War Protocol.
- Protocol-W Units ("Wolves in White") Hybrid enforcers; two breach low, one scouts with red optics; precise, pack tactics.
- Velocity-Class Enforcers Fast strike drones; prioritize termination of "hybrid entity".
- The Chained One Ancient thing beneath the Bone Vault; stirs when the red drum prints the sky.
Locations-as-Characters (motifs)
- Bone Vault Cathedral of restraints; resonates with Velkan's bone-words.
- Red Cathedral of Dead Machines Ruined hub where the code circle glows; key Chapter Two setpiece.
Relationship beats (at a glance)
- Velkan ↔ Rosie: mutual reliance under fire; trust vs. control.
- Rosie ↔ E-Red: exposure alters her processing (risk + power).
- Velkan ↔ Bone Vault: resonancehe "feels" movements through stone.
