Revenge

Steamy

Mystery

Vampires, I'd never seen one up close before. That is, until one tried to kill me. But he saved me, the Reaver Raphael. I know I'm only Human, but the more I learn of him, the more intrigued I become. He scares me, much more than I'd ever admit. My instincts scream at me to run. I know he's one of the four brothers who control the Underworld. I know he kills people without warning or trigger. I know the other Supernaturals fear him, and I know what he says goes… period. Yet, I find myself drawn to him, my fear tempered by a morbid curiosity. Being around someone as powerful as Raphael is daunting, yet every time I'm near him, I feel a swarm of butterflies in my stomach. But I'm aware of the danger. I've studied the Reavers, and I know their charm is designed to lure you in. Raphael doesn't even have to try… he exudes an effortless allure that draws me, and everyone else, to him. I know I should run, I want to run. But I'm frozen in place, and the warning signs only seem to heighten the allure. I've danced with danger for too long, but playing with fire has never felt so satisfying. That was, until I woke up in a strange place, surrounded by an unsettling array of supernatural creatures. Reality hit me like a slap in the face. And it's in this moment that I regret ever pursuing the man in the silver suit, who meets me in the diner... I've read enough love stories to know that love could be a fatal flaw, or a mans greatest strength. Could I be his? Or would our love become a fatal collision course from which neither of us would escape?

Chapter 1
I could tell you the exact moment my entire life took quite the turn for the worse. It was January 13th, 1840. She was 92 years old. Time seemed to stand still as I cradled her fragile form, the weight of years and memories settling upon me like a gentle mist. My fingers moved with a soothing slowness, tenderly combing through the now silver and gray curls that cascaded down her back like a river of moonlight. The softness of her hair, the delicate curve of her neck, and the faint scent of age and wisdom all blended together to create a sense of profound intimacy, a feeling of being connected to this precious, vulnerable soul in a way that transcended words. The delicate, glittering lines of the infinity symbol seemed to shimmer and dance beneath my fingertips as I traced their intricate path along her skin. The mark, with its dainty filigree and subtle sparkle, was a thing of beauty, yet it was also a potent reminder of the bond between us, its power physically inscribed u

Chapter 2
~(72 years earlier) Aren’t you a pretty little thing.” I purred, as I admired the glitter shining from the infinity symbol standing vertically, my newly administered mark, upon the side of this woman's face. I wasn’t even sure of her name, but I didn’t care. She was a vision of loveliness, a petite and delicate beauty with a presence that belied her small stature. Her blonde hair, styled in a chic bob cut, framed her face and accentuated her striking features. Her deep blue eyes sparkled like sapphires, shining brightly with a warmth and kindness that drew me in. Her tanned skin glowed with a healthy, sun-kissed radiance, adding to her natural beauty and effortless charm. She was a Wolf, I could hear her Wolf’s internal dialogue which made it that much easier to know what she wanted. I preferred Wolves, they were easier to mark and more obedient. “She will do… for the next few weeks at least.” I smirked at Axel. I had marked a plethora of women, but never completed the mating r

Chapter 3
We woke up early, around 6:00 am. That was usual for me. My plaything was in the shower. As I stood there, listening to the sound of the water cascading down, I felt a fleeting urge to step into the shower alongside her. But it was a hollow impulse, one that I couldn't quite explain, even to myself. I didn't genuinely desire her company, nor did I feel any emotional connection to her. She was, after all, merely a plaything, a distraction from the emptiness that lay at the heart of my existence. And yet, the more I indulged in these fleeting moments of intimacy, the more I risked entangling her emotions, binding her to me with threads of attachment and affection. It was a prospect that filled me with a sense of disquiet, a reminder that my actions had consequences, even if I didn't truly care. I sighed out loud, caught up in my thoughts when I was mind linked by Jerome. “Sir, the Necromancer King doesn’t want to agree to the deal… he wants all the bodies, not just the ones w

Chapter 4
"Take your new toy and meet me at home." Blaze said, and I knew he wasn't asking. "Yes, daddy." Haven replied. As she knelt beside the lifeless form of my plaything, her arms extended in a gesture of supplication, a sudden, eerie transformation took hold. Her eyes, once a vibrant green, turned a milky white, as if the very essence of her being was being rewritten. The air around her began to churn and writhe, a dark, shimmery substance coalescing into a whirlwind that swirled around her like a living entity. The atmosphere grew heavy with an otherworldly energy, and I could feel the weight of something ancient and foreboding stirring to life. "Per manum meam, et mortui resurgent." She chanted in Latin. I believe she said, ‘by my hand, the dead shall rise.’ As I stood transfixed, my former plaything began to stir, her body twitching back to life. With a fluid motion, she rose to her feet, her neck cracking audibly as she snapped it back into place. Her eyes, once bri

Chapter 5
I was right, the week had dragged on and on, seeming as if it were never going to end. I was looking forward to my meeting with Blaze, but more importantly I hoped I could get another glimpse at Haven. She was the one who had been occupying my thoughts, her enigmatic presence lingering in my mind like a ghost. Even the disturbing intensity of our dream encounter couldn't dim the fascination I felt towards her. If anything, it only seemed to have fueled my desire. Those fleeting seconds had been enough to leave a lasting impression, though. Her image was seared into my memory: the striking features, the piercing eyes, the wild tangle of red hair. But beyond that, I knew nothing. No hint of her personality, no glimpse of her values or motivations. She was a mystery, a cipher, and I found myself wondering what lay beneath her enigmatic surface. I materialized at the clearing where I was to meet with Blaze again to finalize our deal. The scene unfolded with a sense of ritualist

Chapter 6
Time seemed to stretch and blur, the endless procession of trees and underbrush blending together in a maddening rhythm. The silence between us was oppressive, punctuated only by the soft crunch of leaves and snapping of twigs beneath our feet. I couldn't help but feel a growing sense of anticipation, a building tension that seemed to vibrate through every cell in my body. And then, suddenly, the trees parted, The clearing emerged from the dense foliage like a sudden revelation, the imposing wooden gate dominating the space with its sheer size and ominous presence. The Necromancer soldiers stood at attention, their dark armor and impassive faces exuding an aura of foreboding and authority. The air was heavy with the weight of magic and power, and I could sense the gate's significance, its role as a threshold to a realm both mysterious and treacherous. Haven's pace slowed as we approached, her eyes scanning the gate and its guards with a mixture of caution and curiosity.

Chapter 7
It was about 6:45 pm when Haven knocked on my door. I set my book down to answer it. She grabbed my hand and we headed down to dinner. As we descended to the dining hall, the gentle pressure of Haven's hand around mine was a pleasant surprise. I had expected her to maintain her reserve, but instead, she seemed to be sending mixed signals. The brief touch sparked a flutter in my chest, leaving me wondering what other unexpected moments the evening might hold. Just as quickly as it began, the connection was broken, Haven releasing my hand as we approached the dining hall and I was surprised she’d held onto it that long. A sly smile spread across my face as I pondered Haven's bold move. She was a true wildflower, unafraid to take risks and push boundaries. The fact that she had held my hand, even briefly, in a place where discovery could mean much more than trouble, only added to her allure. The danger of being caught, far from deterring me, only seemed to heighten the thrill

Chapter 8
God damnit. The frustration and annoyance were palpable, and I couldn't help but let out a silent sigh. Pinching the bridge of my nose, I felt a familiar tension headache brewing, a testament to the complexities and challenges that seemed to be piling up around me. Dealing with the Risen was never easy, and the fact that this specific Risen was a Cryomancer, only added to the tangled web of problems I was already facing. My mind was racing with the implications, the potential consequences of the Cryomancer's captivity and her newfound state as one of the Risen. The Cryomancers' attacks were no longer just a random act of aggression, but a desperate attempt to rescue one of their own. And when they finally succeeded in retrieving her, the revelation that she was dead and had been Risen would be a spark that would ignite a powder keg of conflict. A war between the Cryomancers and the Necromancers was a daunting prospect, one that could have far-reaching and devastating conseq

Chapter 9
The vivid images of Haven, Necromancers, and Cryomancers swirled through my mind like a maelstrom, each scene bleeding into the next in a chaotic dance of color and sound. I was a passive observer, trapped in the labyrinthine corridors of my own subconscious, as my dreams attempted to process the tangled web of emotions and loyalties that had ensnared me. And yet, despite the turmoil, I had deliberately chosen not to dreamwalk, to instead allow my mind to wrestle with the demons that haunted me. I had hoped that by surrendering to the chaos, I might stumble upon some hidden insight, some elusive thread that would help me unravel the complexities of our situation and find a way forward. But as the dreams finally began to recede, leaving me feeling drained and unsettled, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was no closer to finding the answers I so desperately sought. The hot water of the shower helped to clear my mind, washing away the lingering fogginess of my dreams. As I dr

Chapter 10
The sound of Haven's worried voice pierced the fog, her urgent tone echoing through my mind. "Raphael! Raphael..." she whispered, her words accompanied by the gentle slapping of my face. I struggled to respond, my eyelids fluttering open to find myself cradled in Haven's arms. As my gaze locked onto hers, memories began to resurface, fragmented and disjointed, but slowly falling into place. The events leading up to my collapse came flooding back. Marina, my frustration, the scotch, Haven in that short dress… ah, that short dress. The passion, the intensity, and the overwhelming sensation that had consumed me. As I sat up, the foggy haze began to clear, and I felt the familiar, unsettling sensation receding from my mind. It was the same thick, fuzzy feeling I experienced whenever Marina communicated with me telepathically. It was as if something was slithering through my thoughts, leaving a trail of unease in its wake. I couldn't help but feel a strong aversion to this sensat
