ADDIE LARUE x VELVET WAS THE NIGHT

A hopeless romantic drags a grumpy college student with her to chase after an urban legend, and the rest is…

A nightmare of scary men and shady gangs and bloodthirsty vampires. Well, this certainly isn’t the romcom she had in mind.

She’s a hopeless romantic. He’s a grump discontented with life. Maybe chasing after an urban legend will get them what they want, if what they want is:

🌕 Midnight rendezvous
🌓 Monstrous vampires
🌒 Scheming gangs & shady detectives
🌑 The secret to controlling it all

Take three characters: Morally grey + sunshine romantic + yearning god

Combine with: Vampires, cutthroat gang leaders, dubious detectives

Put into situations of: Paranormal horror, triad action, literary suspense, a little romcom (as a treat)

You get: FOR THE DAYS WE NEVER HAD

ADDIELARUE x VELVET WAS THE NIGHT

Kai Le’s life in Taipei is out of a drama. Urban legends roam the streets; his vampire employers are being hunted; his crush finally notices him.

Yet what’s most frightening is learning about himself—and the person he may become, if he allows it.

Sneaking into basements at night. Chasing after urban legends; chatting up his crush; running down the streets of Taipei with vampires behind his back.

Yeah, Kai Le’s doing pretty well in life.

Just don’t ask him about the body.

Kai Le has many problems and here are some of them

(we don't talk about the fact that most of these stem from his own issues 🌚)
