If you want something like Requiem, I don't think Cesare is what you're looking for. Cesare as a seinen is slower paced and focused on politics, rather than dark romance. Although both have a dark tone. The closest we get to romance though, is "bromance" between the MC and Cesare. If that's still sounds interesting, give it a shot! I love both Cesare and Requiem.
Not sure what you mean by 'bloodshed like innocence'; the only word I can think of is angsty? (In terms of the dictionary definition, not the negative internet connotations of whining. As in the characters can be anxious about something.) It's hard to find something like Requiem, but you can try looking at the MAL recommendations: https://myanimelist.net/manga/61097/Baraou_no_Souretsu/userrecs.
I've tried to look through my list to find something like Requiem, but they're mostly josei (not in shoujo genre like Requiem), so the tone is less angsty, but still kinda dark:
CHANG GE XING

THE THORN THAT PIERCES ME
It's shoujo and has scary elements + romance? idk, this is the only kinda relevant shoujo I found on my list.

If you like something a little bit more fast paced, you can try Vinland Saga, as recommended by Llyxxely. Though there's not much romance there either, as it's in the shounen category. But there's some angst? At least in the teenage arc.
My sister had no idea what shoujo, shounen and the like are, so I thought I'd make an ending note explaining ^^;. In the Japanese genres, the publishers differentiate between 5 demographics or target groups.
SHOUNEN
- usually action adventure
Target demographic: Teenage boys
Examples: Vinland Saga, Naruto, InuYasha, Akatsuki no Yona, Massacre Happy End, A Mortal's Journey to Immortality (donghua)
SHOUJO
- Usually focused around romantic relationships, can be kinda angsty
Target demographic: Teenage girls
Examples: Requiem for the Rose King, Red River, Kanata Kara, Fruits Basket, Rose of Versailles
SEINEN
- Tends to be more career focused, though with action
- the most varied genre in my experience
Target demographic: men above 18
Examples: Sasurai Emanon, Asadora, Vagabond, Berserk, Watashi no Shounen, Blue Period, Cesare
JOSEI
- tends to focus around a relationship, whether that's family, love, or strangers
- also career focus, though leans more towards the relationship aspect rather than action scenes
Target demographic: women above 18
Examples: Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu, Coral - Tenohira no Umi, Chihayafuru, Hapi Mari
KODOMO
- Tends to feature designs that can be made into toys, to boost merchandise sales
- mostly for boys
Target demographic: children below 7
Examples: Pokemon, Digimon, Beyblades, Yugioh, Gundam, Doraemon
FAMILY / KAZOKU
- aimed at families, and children generally. I haven't found the Japanese term for this genre yet.
Examples: The Moomins, Heidi girl of the Alps, Studio Ghibli in general
The stories targeted at an older demographic tends to be slower paced in general, compared to shounen and shoujo. I've mostly read seinen, although I'd like to try out josei more, but I've yet to find something interesting so far.
What a manga gets categorized as depends on which magazine they get serialized in, and what that magazine's target demographic is. Personally I would've categorized Watashi no Shounen as josei, but it's seinen. Then there's some manga that get serialized in several magazines, like Chang ge Xing, and ends up being categorized as both josei and seinen.
Is this manga worth reading?i love historical but i want it to be kinda dark with bloodshed like innocence and requiem of the rose king
I hope its jot boring
