Summary:
An AU vampiric horror tale inspired by "The Last Duel" (2021) and "Bram Stoker's Dracula" (1992). While Jacques Le Gris as portrayed in the film is reprehensible, my story depicts a very different version of the character. Here, Le Gris is a man of honor, betrayed by the brother-in-arms he believed to be his true friend, and by the woman he believed to be his true love.
There's an old saying: "Be careful what you wish for". Perhaps Jean de Carrouges should have heeded this warning. While the corrupt knight revels in his revenge, the man he wronged has his own plans for vengeance.
But this is also a love story. Years ago, Le Gris fell in love with a mysterious woman. A woman he never forgot, as different from Marguerite, as the moon from the sun. She would be his salvation.
