Hey, just a question out of curiosity. Is there a reason why there are four houses (not counting Mond, since there's only one member), but the ROs are only from two of them (with most from ours)? I absolutely love this IF, but I can’t stop thinking about it.
Well, basically, it’s because they are the only ones with whom a romance could work 😂✨
In the Moonlight family, there’s Enrique and his four sons. Enrique isn’t available for... reasons. (Yup, I thought of making him romanceable, and I still haven’t entirely discarded the possibility, but for now, that won’t be the case.) Meanwhile, all the boys were perfect candidates. One of them can save you; you’ll spend a lot of time with them and get many opportunities to get to know them. They’re all open to romance and have something the MC could help them with. They’re the easiest options.
The Delacroix family also has four “young” members. But of those four, a romance could only work with two of them, Siliva and Lorian/Locke. Since they spend a lot of time in the Moonlight house, you’ll also get more chances to know them than their siblings. Eira and Liath don’t go to your home unless on orders from their mother. And they’re not as approachable as their siblings, so I can’t really see a way to make a romance work with them. And I have other plans for them :)
And Belladonna is also a no-no. For... reasons, also.
Now, the Rosemerte have two “young” members, too, Ariel and Rose. But these also won’t work as a potential romance. Rose is, well, Rose: immature and acts like a child. Ariel’s heart is already occupied. And Madeleine and Rasen love each other. So they’re not options either.
And for the Lovelace family, there are only three members. Braxton and Ivonne are still happily in love, too. They’re open about an adventure with the two of them and a third one, but not romance, really. They just need each other. And Drausio isn’t interested in romance. He’s a workaholic; he just focuses on his duties, that’s all.
So, I created a romantic option of every character that allows the MC to fit nicely into their stories: Derek, Max, Alex, Jere, Siliva and Lorian/Locke.
Every other vampire has their own agenda, motives, feelings, and stories, in which it is hard or impossible for the MC to fit as a romantic partner.
