Blood And Steel Book Summary Novels & Stories

Confused, I stare. Then he gestures ahead of us. I turn. And gasp. “You’ll need to bathe in this virgin blood if we’re going to defeat every other woman in Chase’s life.” I stare at the massive tub before me in horror. Dark crimson blood fills it almost to the brim. The metallic scent instantly assaults my nose. Virgin blood? Just to have Chase? Just to defeat other women like this Lucy Roshid? The smell hits me harder. The news about Chase. The image of that blood. Lucy Roshid.

Steel met flesh. Aiden fought like an animal cornered. He ducked under a claw, drove his blade upward, ripped through a throat. Hot blood sprayed across his face. Another rogue slammed into him, claws raking his shoulder. He twisted, caught it by the neck, and drove his knife home. When it fell, he was alone. Completely, horribly alone. His wolf howled inside him, the sound tearing through his chest. Then everything went black. Dante felt the pull before anyone told him.

Steel met steel, the clash of swords echoing across the field as our armies collided in a storm of blood and fury. I slashed at the first enemy in my path, my blade biting deep into his armor. He fell, but his body didn’t stop moving. His hand reached for my ankle even as his life drained from him, the dark magic animating his broken form. I kicked him off and kept fighting, but it was clear now—their wounds meant nothing. They would fight until their bodies were unrecognizable, driven by the Overlord's dark power. I fought like a man possessed, cutting down anyone who dared to stand in my way. But even as I tore through the Overlord’s soldiers, my eyes kept searching for him. The Overlord.

His hands were steady, like killing hadn’t cost him anything at all. Ashley shivered. Was it fear or awe? Jax looked at her for a second. An acknowledgment that she’d seen him as he was. Ashley dropped her gaze, her heart racing fast. She just realized survival with the Vipers wasn’t just about riding fast or keeping secrets. It was about blood. Their blood. Her blood. Theirs spilled to protect her, hers now tied to them by a bond she couldn’t escape. And God help her—something in her wanted to see Jax fight again.

I yanked the bag downward with all my strength, then drove my knee up, slamming it straight into his stomach. A dull grunt escaped him as his body staggered backward. He collapsed against the stair railing, his face turning pale in an instant. Brian recovered and rushed at me again. I did not give him the chance. I bent down fast and grabbed the metal cash box my dad had thrown aside earlier. Bang! The edge of the box smashed down onto Brian's foot. "Argh! My foot!" He clutched it, rolling on the ground in pain. I did not stop. I grabbed my backpack and sprinted down the stairs.

Stripes. Burning across my body like fire. The air itself seemed to change. The wolves hesitated. Just for a second. That was their mistake. I moved. Faster than before. Stronger. Unstoppable. I tore through them. No hesitation now. No strategy. Just dominance. One after another. They fell. Until only one remained. Celdor stepped forward. Finally. I tilted my head slightly, blood dripping from my jaw. “You should have stayed hidden.” He didn’t respond.

He was dealing with a true-blooded Vampire, the rightful heir of the Vampire kingdom and dark empire. He didn't even have time to scream before I ripped his throat out and sunk my hand into his chest. Black Blood oozed from the gaping hole, his heart still beating as I ripped it from his body. He dropped to the ground, his red eyes wide with shock. I tossed the heart beside him crushing it under my boot. I leaned over him, my face an inch from his. "Long live the king." I spat, ripping his head off his body and making my way to the castle.

I looked down to see my own blood, pooling over the open pages of the book given to me by the sprites, a blade with black diamonds on the hilt and a large deep red ruby sitting inside a metal frame at the base of the handle, protruded from my stomach. Gasping I could feel my life fade away, I took one last look to see that Joshua had been ran through, his lifeless body laid crumpled on the cold bloody ground. I could hardly recognize the scream of terror that escaped my lips before I felt my life leave my body. Draven.

The moment I opened my eyes, I felt like I was reborn in new and more powerful body. I could feel the overflowing energy on my veins, the heat of fire around me, my soul aching for blood, and my every nerve screaming for death. Ren Lancaster's death. "You really look so much more beautiful when you are all on fire. Maybe I should marry you soon. What do you think, my queen?" I moved my hands in rhythm with the beating of my heart to form the phoenix attack.

I hoped to play the hero–or heroin. Blood painted the stone walls of the fortress, they smelt like fresh blood. Before me in a long hallway was a huge door with few lifeless men littering the door entrance. My heart thuds as I make my brave steps towards the door. What's behind the door could be the dreadful one who slayed the men I met on the way. Also the one who might be keeping Emmett captive, because for what I know, he was immortal.
