Toby was packing his working tools when he heard Anna’s frightened shriek. He jumped instinctively, then relaxed. From experience he guessed she was probably overreacting to something Seraphina had done.

“You are trying to give me a heart attack!” He heard her anguished and exasperated voice.

Now what? He thought walking towards the big room.

Anna was standing beside the large oak table in the corner of the room, holding a giggling Seraphina.

“What’s going on? I heard you shout.” Toby sa

  • Reborn For Vengance   The Plot Begins

    She hurried to her chamber to freshen herself first. She has an important request to make to Kip, and she needed him to find her so desirable he would agree. Unlike most of the servants who slept in the slave quarter, Drianna had her own room inside the palace and it was well furnished. She had Elena to thank for that. She washed and arranged her braids, then put on a short gown that had been given to her by Elena. It has been a long silk gown given to Elena as a gift, but wasn’t her size. So she’d given it to Drianna, and it fit her curvy shape perfectly. To make it more alluring, Drianna had cut it very short. “My simple Hemivore won’t be able to resist.” She chuckled. She put on a cloak and hurried to the stable. As she approached she could see light coming from within. She sighed with relief. He was awake. She entered cautiously. The place was dimly lit, but she could see light coming from deep inside. Around her the horses breathed heavily. “Kip my love.” She called softly.

    Are you sure you won’t rest tonight my lady, you have done so much today I fear you have exhausted yourself.” Drianna told Elena. “I am fine. I haven’t seen my husband at all today. I want to spend time with him.” Drianna winced. She had planned to see Kip tonight and Elena being awake would ruin that plan. She would spend hours with Dusk and probably leave well after mid hour, which would make sneaking off to the stable more difficult. As if sensing her dilemma, Elena said, “I don’t need you to wait for me, you can retire. Once I’m done talking with my husband I will find my way back to my chamber.” “No my Lady. I can’t retire while you are still about. Who will escort you to your chamber and prepare you for bed?” “You sound like you are preparing me for a major battle.” Elena smiled gently and patted her hand. “I can survive a night without you. Rest tonight. You work too hard.” “Thank you my lady.” Drianna’s chest tightened. Elena was such a sweet soul. For a moment she alm

  • Reborn For Vengance   Before The Feast

    Roydo felt his stomach vanish. The Marsh was a desolate, gray wasteland on the border with Vampire Kingdom. A place of despair and decay, filled with endless black swamps, dead trees, poisonous mist, and populated by renegade zombies and outcasts from all parts of the kingdom. Banishment to the Marsh was the worst punishment anyone could receive."Your Majesty please reconsider." Donton begged."I have made my decision!" Corpa said firmly."Father please." Roydo pleaded tearfully, "I am sorry. I meant no-""I am not your father! You are a stain on my kingdom and I want you out of it!" Corpa thundered.He matched away. Nessa followed, grinning maliciously at Roydo, Tok was at her side. As he passed Roydo he muttered, "Finally I will be rid of your ugly face freak."Roydo stared after his family, not noticing the pitying stares of the people around."Don't worry Roydo, I will talk to him." Donton promised, "now, let's get you back to your room."Roydo nodded and slowly followed Donton.

  • Reborn For Vengance   Standing Alone

    Roydo gave a sudden gasp as he sat upright in his bed. The fire had died and the room was cold, but he was sweating profusely. He'd had the nightmare again, the same vision of chaos and death he had been having for weeks, only this one was more vivid. So vivid it was as if he were living through it. Because it wasn't a dream, it was a vision of what was to come. But where and when? He jumped out of bed and looked out of the window. The sky was grey, meaning dawn wasn't far off. Shivering, he quickly built the fire. Then sat next to it, trying to answer his own question.From the dream the where was clear, Zombie Kingdom. As for when? He began thinking. Everyone in the dream had been well dressed, and the atmosphere had been festive. Such could only occur during The Feast Of The Gray. His heart sank when he remembered the feast was two days away.If the kingdom was going to be in danger, shouldn't the celebration be postponed? His father would have his head if he suggested such an abom

  • Reborn For Vengance   Lupus Tenebris Plots

    It was Lupus Tenebris. Now in the shape of Judy, but still retaining his hulking figure, blood colored fur, glowing red eyes, and monstrous fangs. He looked at the lake below and chuckled seeing his reflection.“Not bad,” he smiled. “I seem to have become a high breed of myself and that annoying creature. Which is good. It would make moving among the creatures of this realm easier.” He looked towards where Ferrivor lay. The beast was watching him suspiciously, not sure what to make of a creature that somehow looked like his two masters merged into one.Lupus Tenebris beckoned to him but he didn’t move, until he gave a familiar whistle. Ferrivor immediately flew to him.“You didn’t recognize me my pet.” Lupus Tenebris said stroking Ferrivor’s nose. “I don’t blame you, even my, know-it-all mother, wouldn’t recognize me now.” Ferrivor whined softly.“Yes,” Lupus Tenebris nodded. “Your other pretend master is gone. Finally. It’s only us now, as it was always meant to be. Do not look sad

  • Reborn For Vengance   The Price Of Ambition

    Judy gasped as shadows burst from the mountain itself, twisting through the air like living smoke before slowly coiling around her body. For a moment she felt invincible and stronger than she had ever been. At first she welcomed the power flooding her veins, hot and intoxicating. She could feel herself growing stronger, greater. Ferrivor roared somewhere below the mountain, as if sensing the change. “Now Judy Bloodfang, do you open yourself willingly to me?” Lupus Tenebris asked. “Yes.” She whispered. “Say it!” “I open myself to you willingly Lupus Tenebris.” “Recite these words,” he ordered. “By fang, moon, and darkness eternal. By blood and shadow, I call upon the ancient bond to be broken. Darkness and light, stone and sea, accept my sacrifice!” The word sacrifice jolted Judy, before she could react, the mountain shook violently, then pain exploded through her chest. She gasped. Something was wrong. The shadows were no longer circling her, they were ent

    Now as Toby looked at his laughing daughter, he again wondered how she’d gotten up that tree. “We are the only ones at home right?” He asked Anna. “Of course, why?” “Well,” Toby said carefully, “if no one else is here, and neither of us put her on the table, then it means she climbed up herself.

    Corpa listened to their news with an angry frown. “Are you saying killing this thing would invite disaster in the kingdom?” He asked finally. “Killing the child, will invite disaster upon the land.” Donton nodded. “Are you sure you are not misinterpreting that scroll?” Nessa scoffed. “ It mi

    For days, Donton locked himself in the library, reading book after book, scroll after scroll, searching for any record of the prince’s ailment. The Master of the Library, whom he had confided in, joined the search. But a week passed with no answers. “Nothing,” the Master said at last, slamming a b

    “Of course not! Why would you say such a thing?” Donton asked.“Because it’s true. My father hates me. He would give anything to see my head on a pike. If he dosen’t put it there, then Tok certainly would, when he becomes king.”“No one is executing you. Not while I live.” Donton promised. “And wha
