His Hunger, My Curse Lena Carter was just an ordinary woman, struggling to pay rent and survive in a city that never sleeps. But the night she met Adrian Blackwell, everything changed. Mysterious, dangerously handsome, and dripping in unimaginable wealth, Adrian is no ordinary billionaire-he is a vampire, a predator lurking in the shadows of power. And for some reason, he has chosen her. When Lena accepts his offer to protect her, she unwittingly binds herself to a world of dark desires, ancient curses, and deadly secrets. Adrian is obsessed with her, drawn to her in ways even he can't explain. But as she falls deeper under his spell, she begins to uncover a truth far more terrifying-she's not just Adrian's weakness. She may be his undoing. Now, trapped between a love that could consume her and a curse that could destroy them both, Lena must decide: run while she still can, or surrender to the hunger that binds them. But in Adrian's world, escape is never an option.
The night air was crisp as Lena Carter hurried through the quiet streets of New York, her fingers tightening around the straps of her worn-out bag. The shift at the café had stretched longer than expected, leaving her exhausted. Rent was due in a week, and the extra hours barely made a difference.
She sighed, brushing a stray lock of hair from her face. Life had never been kind to her, but she had learned to survive.
A gust of wind whispered against her skin, and suddenly, she felt it-a presence.
Lena stopped. The street was empty, but an uneasy chill ran down her spine. Someone was watching her.
"Keep walking," she muttered under her breath, picking up her pace. But before she could take another step, a deep, velvety voice echoed from the shadows.
"You're out late, Miss Carter."
Lena spun around, her heart hammering in her chest. Leaning against a sleek black car was a man-tall, impossibly handsome, and cloaked in an aura of undeniable power. His dark suit fit him like a second skin, and when he stepped forward, the dim streetlights revealed piercing silver eyes that seemed to glow unnaturally.
Lena swallowed hard. Who was he? And how did he know her name?
The man tilted his head, a smirk playing on his lips. "You shouldn't be wandering alone at this hour. Dangerous things lurk in the night."
Lena took a cautious step back. "Look, I don't know who you are, but-"
Before she could finish, the man was suddenly right in front of her-faster than any human should be able to move.
She gasped, but his hand caught hers gently, his touch ice-cold. "I've waited a long time to meet you, Lena."
Her breath hitched. This wasn't just any man. He was something else. Something... unnatural.
And as the moonlight bathed his sharp features, she finally saw it-the faint glimpse of elongated fangs behind his smirk.
"My name is Adrian Blackwell," he said, his voice like a whisper of the wind. "And I always get what I want."

What's Next?
This opening sets up mystery, tension, and the billionaire vampire's obsession with Lena. If you like this direction, we can expand on:
1. Why is Adrian drawn to Lena? (Is she special? A reincarnation? His mate?)
2. What's his dark secret? (A curse? A deadly rival?)
3. Will Lena resist or fall for him?
Let me know if you'd like changes or if you want to continue the story!
That's a great concept-a billionaire vampire falling for an ordinary girl blends two highly popular tropes: paranormal romance and billionaire romance. Here's a draft of your first chapter:
