Vanessa Blade Novels & Stories

You did—" Then her gaze snapped to me, pure madness burning through. She jabbed a finger my way. "It's because of her! If it weren't for her, you would've loved me!" Shayne stepped in front of me, voice sharp as steel. "No. Even without Leyla, I'd never love someone as twisted as you." Vanessa's face warped, snapping completely. She yanked a fruit knife from her bag, screaming, "No! If Leyla dies, everything will be fine!"

Earis The sound of a blade slicing through the air made me turn to Vanya. She pulled a sword out of nowhere. “I know you. You're the tour guide at Ravenhurst University!” Vanya snarled, ready to tear her to shreds. “This one is more feisty than you and Cassian both. I'll have so much fun wiping this moment out of your little head,” she grinned, tongue grazing her fangs before she shut the door behind her. Okay, as much as I would love to see this happen I can't let either one of them harm the other. I stood between them, hands stretched out, stopping any act of violence.

Instead of pressing his lips to hers for now he shifts his head just a little and leans in to whisper next to her ear. “Don’t fight and you may enjoy this as much as we will.” Elizabeth tries to step back from him but Blade holds her firm until he moves, bending and slipping his arm down over her arse to the back of her thighs so that as he straightens he lifts her up and throws her over his shoulder. Blade turns, walks off of the balcony, through the bedroom into the entry and back out to where Silas and Xana are still waiting for him. Silas smirks liking what he sees he quickly moves turning Xana, picking her up and throwing her over his shoulder.

“And now, whether it is today, or tomorrow, or next week whenever…Debrassy will keep coming back until he finds out the truth for himself.” As she opens her eyes, bright and blue, with the lights of the tower shining behind her, she looks otherworldly as she tells me her deepest truth. “My name isn’t Addison Archer,” her voice is small but strong. “I am Vanessa. Vanessa Addison Vandersteele and for some reason, the Debrassy family wants me dead.”

“Jessa!” Sawyer lunged forward to shield Jessa without even thinking about it, but Adam was already there. Sawyer instantly stopped moving. What right did he have to try and protect Jessa at that point? At the very same moment he had this thought, Vanessa’s knife plunged into his flesh. “Move aside!” Vanessa once again lunged at Jessa. Her eyes were fiery, and her hatred seemed to be directed not only at Jessa but the whole world.

"So you took on three enforcers by yourself just to keep the maps out of Marcus's hands?" "I took them on so the paper in my coat pocket stayed valid," Abel grunted, his fingers tightening slightly on her knee as she poured the stinging liquid directly into the wound. He gasped, his shoulders tensing violently, but he didn't pull away from her. "I told you I'd hold the line. I meant it." Vanessa wiped away the fresh blood with a dry towel, her movements quick, precise, and practiced. She took the curved needle and heavy suture thread from the kit, threading it with hands that remained surprisingly steady despite the rage and fear warring inside her chest.

Mira sat across from him, her expression serious. "Lord Kael. I need to tell you something." Kael leaned forward. "What is it?" "Lady Isara didn't send me to learn about the academy. She sent me to find the Twin Blades." Kael's heart stopped. "What?" "Your weapons. The silver and gold blades. She believes they're the source of your power. She wants them for herself." Kael stared at her. "Why are you telling me this?"

“Who are you? And why are you haunting me?” He chuckled softly. “I am Nyxian Veyar Your guardian and a Vanisher.” “The Hollow Blade…” she began, but his eyes gleamed, silencing her. “The Blade can be anything you want, a promise, test or a leash is a test and only you can decide whether it will cut you down… or crown you.” Her hands trembled on the railing. Lightning illuminated his sharp features, too perfect and unreal. “Why can’t Axel see you?” she whispered.

I whispered, though the words felt like ash in my mouth. “And yet, she is gone,” Libra stepped into my line of sight, her eyes reflecting the flickering shadows. “You have the blade. You have the right. Why leave his soul to Allah when you can take it yourself? Feed the hunger, little bird. End the cycle by becoming the end of him.” I see the knife in my hand. I don’t know where it comes from, but it’s there, and it feels right. I raise it, and in that moment, I know what I have to do.

Marina began to debate between herself. When she finally decided to leave the room, Marina heard a noise come out from the laundry basket near the bathroom door. She grinned sheepishly when she saw a sign of Vanessa's dress inside it. "You can do better Vanessa. I already found you" she rushed there and stabbed the knife inside the clothes. Vanessa screamed out loud, holding the sharp edge of the knife. She jerked up from the basket, the many dirty laundry flew out. The knife cut her hand deeply. "I told you not to mess with me.." Marina said, she grinned, seeing the blood pouring from Vanessa's hand pleased her. She struck the knife at Vanessa again, Vanessa moved Swiftly and dodged it.
