LUSTBORN CHAPTER 13: "A BREATH BEFORE CHAOS"
"I'm not. He came last night. Said I called him. He didn't even deny it. He said Damien touched me and he doesn't let things like that live. So he had to erase him…….Oh Fal!" Elara said.Fallon slowly sipped her coffee and replied sarcastically, because it looked like Elara was obsessed with her book character and doesn't plan to stop talking about him soon, so she just had to flow with the vibe. "Well damn. That's dark.""I'm scared, Fal. What if he hurts someone else?""You think he'd hurt me?""No. You are not a threat."Fallon smirked. "Wow. That's comforting."Later that day……The news blared through every phone and screen in the city. BREAKING NEWS:INVESTIGATION INTO DAMIEN ROWE'S MURDER REVEALS NO HUMAN DNA AT THE SCENE.Elara dropped her phone. Fallon stared at the screen. "No human DNA? What does that even mean?"Elara didn't answer. Her hands shook. Her heart was pacing a marathon.A knock at the door interrupted the spiral.Fallon peeked out t
LUSTBORN CHAPTER 12: "THE DREAM THAT WASN'T"
Marek watched through the mirror. Elara's body tossed gently on the bed, her fingers clutching the blanket. Her brows furrowed as her lips whispered incoherent questions to the air around her. "Who's there? Who are you?" She murmured, twisting slowly to her side, her breath shallow, strained. Her room remained quiet, moonlight casting a soft glow on her twitching lashes. She had been dreaming of him again, but this time…it was deeper. Too real. She had stood in a place that didn't feel like earth, thick mist crawling through towering, deadened trees, their branches whispering secrets. The sky was starless, the ground blanketed with shadows. She had heard the hum of his voice, low and commanding, like the trees themselves were answering to it. But she never saw him. She never saw Marek. She awoke with her heart in her throat. Marek leaned back on his stone throne cloaked in a living black forest. The roots beneath him pulsed faintly, like a heartbeat connected
LUSTBORN CHAPTER 11: "THE FOREST GOD"
{MAREK'S WORLD}It was always quiet before he walked.Not the stillness of peace, but of reverence. The moment Marek took a step, the forest bent in silent obedience.Branches twisted to make way.Roots retreated beneath the dirt.The very air parted like a curtain before a throne.Black.Marek wore it like a second skin. A long, tailored coat that kissed the earth with every stride, boots that never scuffed nor cracked.No dust dared touch him.His dark hair fluttered slightly in the gentle wind that moved only by himThey said the forest belonged to no one.They were wrong.It breathed when he did. Moved when he walked. And when he spoke, though rarely, every branch bowed in reverence.Marek was not a myth whispered by firelight. He was the shadow behind every rustling leaf and the cold hush before the storm.Towering at 6'5, with skin kissed by the sun-dappled trees and eyes like cold flame, piercing blue, sharp enough to strip anybody bare, he was both beauty and peril in one
LUSTBORN CHAPTER 10: "BLOOD ON THE SIDEWALK"
The alley was quiet, early…except for the soft scuff of old slippers against concrete.Mrs. Maloney, a bent hunched woman with thin white hair and a shaky cane, squinted through her thick glasses at the lump sprawled behind the dumpster.At first, she thought it was a stack of rags. But then she saw the blood.So much blood.She gasped, one hand trembling to her chest.Her scream tore into the still morning air, slicing it open like a knife.Within minutes, sirens wailed, lights spun, and the body of Damien Reeves was surrounded. ****"Male. Twenty-three. Multiple lacerations. Face was….." The forensic officer paused. "Unrecognizable. Fingernails ripped off. Teeth broken. Slashes…dozens of them…all over his chest and arms. His neck wrinkled. The eyes were missing."Detective Langdon squatted near the covered body, glancing toward the pool of dried blood staining the cracked pavement. "This wasn't a robbery. This was rage. Vicious. Like someone
LUSTBORN CHAPTER 9: "SHADOWS OF THE PAST"
The rain had started as a light drizzle that afternoon, drumming gently on the windows of Elara's room. But by evening, it poured in sheets, as if the sky was trying to drown the entire city. She sat curled at her desk, attempting to write again, but every word she typed felt meaningless, especially with Marek haunting the corners of her thoughts.She hadn't seen him since that night. Not truly. He was there in the mirrors. In the shadows. In cold drafts that brushed her skin when all the windows were shut. But physically? Nothing. She should have been relieved. She wasn't.Fallon had been trying to pull her back to normal, inviting her to random parties, forcing her to watch cheesy horror movies, and stuffing her face with popcorn.Elara appreciated it, but her mind remained elsewhere. On Marek. On the look he gave her. On the things he made her feel. On the fact that he wasn't real and that she was hallucinating.Elara had been feeling something strange in the air all day. I
LUSTBORN CHAPTER 8: "POSSESSION"
Thunder rumbled low in the distance as Elara stirred from sleep. The dim gray light of a stormy morning filtered through her curtains, casting elongated shadows on the walls of her room.Her body was unusually warm beneath the sheets, and as she blinked the haze from her eyes, she caught a strange sensation almost like a soft burn on her wrist.She sat up slowly. Her room was silent, the air was thick, humming with energy. When she turned her wrist over, her breath caught.There, on the soft skin above her pulse, was a faintly glowing symbol. A twisting design that looked both ancient and ethereal. It pulsed softly, like a second heartbeat. Her heart galloped."What the helly…." She whispered.Fallon's knock came before she could process it."You alive in there?" Fallon called through the door. "You missed breakfast. It's like, almost time for lit class."Elara scrambled to hide the mark beneath her sweater sleeve. "Yeah, just coming."When she opened the door, Fallon frowned.
