Servamp Vol. 1 by Strike Tanaka

4.0

To be honest I had to read this twice. I gave only 4 stars because I was kind of confused and it seemed a little rushed. But nonetheless I loved this book and ordered the next one!

Mahiru's runs across a stray cat that everyone's passing up, not caring. Next thing he knows this cat, Kuro as he named him, is a vampire. A lazy vampire, but still a vampire! Oh but here's the twist on these vampires, they're servants. If they drink the blood of someone then boom that's their master.

So Mahiru's not to tempt Kuro for 24 hours, for he may have made a temporary contract with Kuro. But as most things go in the 24 hours something happens which causes Kuro and Mahiru to form a contract with blood.

Mahiru's launched into a world of servamps, masters, and more. A bored villain decides to create some amusement for himself he's going to start a war. Killing vampires and humans, it doesn't matter to him.

The servamps are labeled as the seven sins, Kuro just happens to be the sloth sin. To Mahiru's disappointment that means Kuro's lazy and just wants to remain at home. The two are total opposites which makes for an interesting contract.

Mahiru's simple, simples what he likes and prefers, life just got complicated, add in a lazy vampire and another who's the sin of Melancholy. This villain merely wishes to have something that doesn't depress him and a war is the solution.

Mahiru's on a high horse riding into battle while Kuro's whining to stay home. I'm excited for the next book! Even though it seemed a little rushed I did enjoy it and rereading some parts. I want to see where these two are going to end up, not to mention a cliffhanger at the end of the book.

Some language and there are some scenes with a little extra skin. No clear genitalia, but some cleavage and a shot of a guy's vertical smile.
