Une leçon d'humilité. Voilà ce que Jason pensait donner à Mallory en intentant une action en justice contre elle pour son attitude exécrable après l'accident. Mais il n'avait pas prévu, qu'en guise de travaux d'intérêt général, le juge la condamnerait à travailler avec lui, et certainement pas qu'il en tomberait follement amoureux, et encore moins qu'elle lui imposerait le parcours du combattant pour avoir osé bouleverser sa vie ! Contraint à une pseudo-amitié, souvent dérouté par la logique féminine, Jason ne reculera devant rien pour gagner son amour, pas même devant les blessures profondes qu'il découvre chez Mallory

When Lisa Dumont travels down to New Orleans to stay with her mother for the summer, she finds herself entangled in a web of century-long territorial disputes between undead and supernatural forces. Lisa soon realizes that she has become torn between the blood-loyalty to her mother, Voodoo Priestess Madam Dumont, and the intrigue she has grown towards Elder Vampire, Hezekiah Mercier - the enemy. And consequently, the heavy discord between the two factions leaves Lisa with life-changing decisions to make that could possibly alter the fate of both groups and everyone else in between. ** **DISCLAIMER** This story is UNEDITED and UNREVISED. I haven't made any adjustments to this story since I first wrote it, which was when I was about 18 years old. I'm 23 now, for reference. I adore this story with all I have, but most of the chapters I haven't even revisited since I first uploaded them. Any mistakes, I'm usually notified of them by readers who point them out in comments. Please tread lightly, for there are undoubtedly historical inconsistencies, incorrect language translations, grammar and punctuation mistakes, and information that hasn't been properly fact checked. This is a work of FICTION. Have fun with it, please! But also beware that this is an amateur piece (that I had a great time writing). Follow me on instagram! @ceaselessmindwrites
