Spilled Blood Chapter 2

Some families run from their past. The Hawkins siblings hunt it down. Katherine Hawkins never asked to grow up in a world where demons were real and survival meant learning how to fight them. Alongside her brothers—William and Alex—she’s spent years tracking the things that live in the dark. But when an old exorcism tape surfaces and names from a forgotten case start resurfacing—Malcolm Smith, Matthew Conner, Gabriel Spender—their past begins catching up with them fast. Secrets their father kept buried are beginning to unravel. And the deeper they dig, the clearer it becomes: the monsters they’re chasing now are connected to something older, something unfinished… something personal. Now, with danger closing in and trust wearing thin, the Hawkins siblings must head straight into the heart of a mystery that could shatter everything they thought they knew—about their family, their history, and the war they were born into. Because sometimes, the real fight doesn’t start until after the ghosts come back.

Behind velvet curtains and gilded balconies, the opera is more than a performance. It's a hunting ground, a court of monsters disguised as patrons and benefactors. When a masked nobleman claims her talent as his own, Lyria is drawn into a world where music is power, restraint is survival, and desire is the most dangerous temptation of all. The longer Lyria remains under his protection, the more she awakens. Her body responds to hungers she does not yet understand and her are dreams invaded by a silver-eyed predator who promises freedom instead of restraint. As the opera's beauty curdles into something predatory, Lyria must decide what she is willing to become to survive it. The stage is watching. The city is listening. And once the blood sings, it cannot be silenced. TRIGGER/CONTENT WARNING: This story contains mature themes and content intended for adult audiences (18+) Reader discretion is advised.

Un mois d'exil volontaire, suite à une humiliation insoutenable, et toujours ce silence assourdissant de son mari. Lui, Vincenzo, fier magnat napolitain, refuse de céder, même si son empire et son âme sont en lambeaux depuis son départ. Les rues de Naples bruissent déjà des rumeurs de leur rupture, mais ce que ni Ava ni Vincenzo ne savent, c'est que des ombres bien plus sombres s'étendent sur le clan. Cargaisons disparues, trahisons chuchotées... l'empire De Luca vacille. Ava percera-t-elle le mystère du mutisme de Vincenzo avant que l'orgueil et les secrets sanglants de la mafia n'achèvent un amour déjà brisé ? Et si la plus grande menace ne venait pas de l'extérieur, mais d'une trahison intime qui pourrait faire s'écrouler tout un héritage ?

Now, I was exposed to that world, and the lies, secrets and favours were my new currency. The rules were easy to follow and even easier to manipulate. But the last thing I expected was to be thrown in the deep end, fighting for everything I loved." Emiliana was moving on from what she lost, her safety, security, and the love. But what happens when her bodyguard comes back and shows her that the life her family had protected her from, is the life she fits into?
