A short description of the novel is provided below.
“Desire. Terms. Payment. Every contract needs them. There are rumors circulating that if you find a blank contract asking for only these things, you can fill out whatever you wish, and it'll happen.
“College student Issa Aono dismisses this as just another urban legend ... at least until the mysterious paper he finds is accidentally covered in blood and summons an interdimensional wish-granting vampire!
“It doesn't help that she has no idea how to actually fulfill his contract and is now stuck as his roommate.
“As Issa adjusts to his bizarre new living conditions, he soon discovers that the world around him is influenced more by these contracts than he could ever have guessed.”
The book was first released in serialized format as a timed exclusive on Kindle Vella. The serialized version is divided into episodes with the first three episodes free to read.
