Lost in your eyes (WIP) [February August 2026 Update] [6 Ch, 330K words] [Vampires/Romance/Modern Dark Fantasy]

Tuesday’s Update!

This week has been super productive, not super duper but super enough!

Around 6K words were written! Which brings the chapter to 8K words!

This chapter is going to be heavy with tactics since the MC is trying to get the Vampires out of a pickle. Which means there’s a lot of research that needs to be done so I can write it down without being too confusing.

500 words were added to Adrian’s RO scene in the previous chapter bringing that chapter to 21.5K words! It’s still not complete, but it’s getting there! I’m hoping I’ll re-release it for Patron with all the choices available hopefully next week?

That’s pretty much it! I’m going full speed ahead, I’m going to try and write at least 7-8K words this week so hopefully that gets done! As always, take care you guys! Thanks for sticking with me :heart:

Tuesday’s update!
This week has also been productive! Not as productive as I’d like cause of work, but productive enough!

7k Words were written! That’s right! 7K words! I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve written 7K words in one week XD I take one day of break btw (not voluntary, but cause of work lol) so that’s 7K words in 6 days! Which means the newest chapter is at around 15K words!

There are going to be skippable romance scenes in this chapter as well, with Vigil, A, J/E and M. You can also have two romance scenes instead of one (which would feed into poly routes later on)

I may have been too focused on chapter 6.3 so I may have forgotten about the previous chapter, will focus on it today and tomorrow before moving onwards! (Next week, promise!)

That’s pretty much it! I feel like this month’s going to be pretty good for me, writing wise (Hopefully I don’t jinx it lol) Thanks for all the support you guys! Love you all :heart::heart::heart:

I mainly want it, because then then only straight or bisexual MCs can have a harem since Adrian is gender locked.

Tuesday’s updates!

I kinda got better like, yesterday, and wrote only 2k words. So yeah… However, I am going to try and double down and write at least 8K words this week. I need to pump out a chapter on the 10th so there’s that.

The book is at 24K words and I do believe it’ll get to maayybe 30K words. It has the first NSFW (Well, the good kind not the bloody kind lol) with Alex/Alice so that’s pretty good. Any who, thanks for sticking with me you guys! Hope you have a great rest of your week!! <3

Tuesday Update!

I was right, the book did get to 30K words lol

6k Words read, and the chapter has now been finished!

I want to re-read and polish it more, so I’ll extend the release date to 15 just in case. I wanna do re-runs and all that so there aren’t any errors.

That’s pretty much it! It’s editing and all that for now, so thank you for sticking with me you guys! <3

It’s been a minute since I’ve caught up with this story and you’ve made a lot of really great progress! Loving the story and characters and plot twists. And finally Alex my true love is back. Now I feel guilty for all the flirting I’ve been doing with Vigil and John!

I feel amped up like we’re getting to a climax and can’t wait to see how the rest plays out!

As far as feed back, two primary items stand out. First, stats still need tweaking prior to stat lock. If you don’t flirt with M (i never do, not my thing) you will be locked in to playing a pure MC, which is not at all how I want to play, I just don’t want to be perverted/flirty with M and there aren’t enough opportunities with other characters to perv on prior to the stat lock, so essentially if you are not into M, you get locked out of that stat and into purity. Frustrating.

The second main feedback is Adrian gender. They repeatedly flip from male to female early on, after chapter 4 Adrian is almost exclusively female with only a couple reversions to male. I think I read upthread they are tied to mc gender (my mc is male so my understanding is Adrian should be male). I’m not sure if Adrian’s gender is story-critical but if not, I would strongly suggest just making them gender-selectable by player. This would hopefully help clear up whatever is making the constant gender flips in the coding as well as guarantee an additional RO for the majority of players. For example, I’m still not positive if they are supposed to be male or female but if they are male I will romance them if female I won’t. If I can just pick, well that’s another guaranteed replay path for me. By the way, the gender flipping also occurs with Solathis, who changes gender whenever Adrian does.

In the fight with the wolves on the mission with V, there is a line about Lucy’s stake flying down. Unless I missed something this should be Vs stake, I have not met a character named Lucy?

And finally, the character Bennett is referred to as: Bennett, Bennet, Bennette, and there’s even a Benedict in there once lol.

Great work as always, I can’t wait to take down the church!

Yep! I am thinking of spending a month to do a rewrite but instead of rewriting, it’s adding more choices and filling the choices that weren’t implemented (This will happen once I finish chapter 7.2!) So you shall be seeing a lotta edits.

It is kinda critical being that Adrian doesn’t train same sex students because they are very harsh on them, esp with Male Adrian (with how aloof he can sometimes be), and I kinda want Adrian to have this motherly/fatherly vibes to them. Which is why I put them opposite gender for the MC.

Yep! V named their stake as Lucy.

Fixed the bennett part as well! Thanks for pointing that out!


Update time!

The Patron version has been added. which is about 32K words.

Public update has been made, and the full book stands at 300+K words!

A lot of bug fixes so hopefully you won’t see a lot of gender swapping any more. if you do find any, please send me a screen shot, feedbacks are more then just appreciated!

I deeply apologize for taking so long, life’s been a bit hectic (Resigned from my work due to B.S work politics so that was taking most of my time.) Hopefully I’ll get back on track on writing more from next week. Thanks for sticking with me you guys, hope you all have a great week <3

Welcome back!! Screw work politics, artists r individual by nature :laughing:

errors/glitches
  • Theres a glitch during the test in ch3 after giving vale a piggyback that doesn’t allow me to go any further and weirdly minimizes the page

  • Timid personality, but got this in ch5: You stared at the words in silence. A moment passed by, and then you looked at Adrian. “What is this?”

“This is the level of power you have achieved so far.” Adrian gestured for you to follow. Where he was going in such an area, you had no idea. “This will give you a better sense of direction for what you need to do to get stronger.”

“Two years?”

“There can be…” Adrian hesitated. “Exceptions. Exceptions that I rather you not go through.”

“What kind?”

“Ones that can kill you.”

You had a confident personality.

“Good,” you said. “I knew I could get stronger, but I didn’t know how. With this, I’m sure I’ll reach titan class.”

  • Also when I try to skip to 3.2 it takes me to 4.2 or that’s what it says as the title…

  • Could we add an option in 4.2 to visit V in jail as a friend option instead of only a flirt option?

  • I keep accidentally building marcus romance points

  • Flirt indicators missing in a lot of ch5

  • Ch6 walking into the order w Adrien I get an error abt too many lines?

*These r the only options for reacting to Marcus being hurt on a friendship route:
The glow on the ground faded, and you breathed in air that reeked of death. First Alex, now this…

Welp, that happened. Not like I care. Time to finish this mission.⇓:heart:
I can’t handle this. Not again. I couldn’t stop myself from breaking down.⇑:heart:
I felt my mind go numb with rage.⇑:heart:
I felt… numb and weak. Nothing mattered. Not anymore.⇑:heart:
I pushed down the pain. I’ll mourn later. Right now I have to avenge Marcus.⇑:heart:

  • Missing flirt indicator meeting john:

he man was dressed in a gray, long coat with the name tag “John” written on the metal strip on the front pocket. Beneath, he wore a white shirt and neatly pressed black dress pants.

‘John’ looked like a character straight out of a noir film. His Moonlight silver hair looked good on him, though he didn’t seem too old, maybe around his early 30s or even late 20s.

He had a light stubble which gave him a mature, kind, yet firm look, especially with those dark, tired eyes that told you he was much much older than what his appearance would say.

It was the eyes of someone who expected people to listen to with just a single command.

“But there is softness behind them,” you thought to yourself. “Is it because he’s a doctor? He seems familiar too…” That’s when you realized…

I didn’t like him at all.
I don’t think he’s an enemy.
He seemed mature, good-looking, and everything I’d want in someone. ⇑:heart:
He’s hot. I can feel my cheeks getting warm.

  • Perhaps add a friendly option?

You put on a frown, followed him in, and looked around. The table and Sofa were turned upside down, and mud was smeared on the floor and walls. The TV was cracked, and the curtains were torn. Hell, they even broke the bed in two and pissed on the torn mattress.

You were worried it might be a little over the top.

“Mama Mia!” Vale exclaimed. “Our room!”

Burst out laughing.⇑:heart:
I groaned. “Can you act normal for once? Once?”

  • Maybe add more charming stat increase options?

  • Add a friendly option?

Of course, I’ll see you out." He said and walked out of the office.

“Before I leave, how long will you keep Vale in?”

“Overnight.” The chief said, smiling apologetically.

You nodded absently, then walked out the door. You could visit him before you meet Vigil.

Ask to meet him ⇑:heart:
Don’t ask. He’s an enemy, after all.

  • Missing flirt indicators

“Okay, fine. What is it that you want me to do?”

“Okay, so, first of all, I want you to cuddle with me, you know, show my love, hold me in your arms, kiss me while looking into my eyes. You know, positive feelings, with positive whispers close to my ears, sweet nothings whispers and-”

I scoffed and looked away, feeling my cheeks grow warm.
“Sure,” I said and started to get into the sheets.
“If this is a joke, it’s a terrible joke.” I said sternly.
I tried not to show my amusement. “Uhh, how about no.”

  • Add relationship stats for Adrian and Virgil?

  • Missing flirt indicators

Even Marcus looked surprised.

You felt Adrian’s gaze on you, a little amused, a lot interested. And when you come back, even if the thing you were standing on gets buried or somehow gets moved, you’ll come back to that exact same place. However, I can manipulate the time and space where you’ll return, so don’t worry. I’ll make sure you’re not in any kind of danger.

You relayed the entire message to Marcus while Adrian watched on in fascination. You don’t know where he was, but it was interesting, feeling his gaze on you, silently cheering you on.

I smirked. If he calls himself a mortal, I wouldn’t mind giving him mortal pleasures.
I felt my cheeks grow warm. There was a need to please him.
Even if he wasn’t a God, he’s a great teacher. ⇑F
I hated being watched. I wished he’d stop.

  • Never got the flashback scene where we say we love alex

  • Can we decide to keep fighting for non murderous reasons?

  • Didn’t get john kiss scene

Thanks! Could you also fix Adrians gender? He/She is switching between male and female. Its during the garden scene with the priest after we woke up from the attack from the werewolves. The rest of it is fine. Il try pasting a screenshot if you need it but it might take some time on my part since Im lazzzy :upside_down_face:

The scene is basically a friendly scene, not a flirty scene, it was pre-division of relationship stat and friendship stat, which is fixed now! Thanks for pointing it out!! <3

It might be me, but I don’t remember writing a scene like that? There is a flashback but nothing where MC professes their love to Alex.

Yep! You can change your decisions later as well.

So, you would have to like John first in order to get that (I will be adding a choice again in chapter 6.2/6.3) And you don’t need to be grieving your parents too hard (Are you talking about the kiss through portal?)

Thank you so muchh! Apparently it was an issue in the beginning and not the end lol, I really appreciate you sending those screen shots <3

Update time!

This week was kinda hectic, job hunting, writing, plus a few other IRL issues that arose! It did effect the writing speed but no worries!

Massive thanks to @hapamama93, @MadAdam and @Romaan for pointing out the mistakes, most of the problems have been resolved!

Around 2K words have been written for chapter 7.2! Not a lot, I know but I am hoping the pace will pick up!

And that’s pretty much it!! Thanks for being with me you guys! Hope you all have a great week! <3

So, there are only one kissing scene you can get with John (If memory serves me right) and it’s when you don’t grieve your parents too much and like John.

I think A as in Alex? You do get flashbacks in chapter 3 but you don’t profess your love to them!

This choice for parents so I can kiss j?

Summary

#“I’m alright.” I muttered. I’d rather not show my feelings with so many people present.
“I’m alright,” You said, trying not to show any emotions.

    ${jNAME}'s lips twitched and ${jhe} gave a curt nod.
#"I'm good, all things considered." I said easily. 
    *set ParentsdeathGrieve true
    "Even though I've lost my parents, I'm still fine."
    
    "Really?" 

    You gave ${jhim} an acknowledged nod. "They might've taken my parents, but not my will. Not to mention, I've been grieving them for two weeks now. My parents wouldn't want me to be stuck in the past."

    Both ${jNAME} and Adrian smiled as if they were proud of you. 
#I shrugged.
    You gave ${jhim} an unbothered shrug. $!{jhis} lips twitched, but ${jhe} didn't say anything.

Update time!

Patron version has been updated again, mostly because It was supposed to end where it has ended just now. Most of week was also spent rewriting a lot of stuff, so it’s a bit more polished now as well!

Chapter 7: 36K words!

Chapter 1 has also been updated, where you can choose to skip over to chapter 6.2 and 7. It gave me a few bugs in the beginning which forced me to do a lot of changes again, however it should be fixed now!

Updates will come back on being on mondays! Thanks for sticking with me you guys!!
