Grim Echoes by ryanahunter
94 parts Complete Mature
Maeve's ability to touch others' souls can be heartbreaking and confusing, but when she connects with two murderers, it turns her world upside down. Are they still killers if they only kill monsters? What starts as a random attack on the street stopped by two strangers quickly escalates as Maeve discovers her attackers were demons. Thrusting her into their violent world, Maeve struggles to hold on to her humanity, making choices she never believed she would have to make. Disturbed but drawn to each of them. Will's bestial nature calls to her one moment and rejects her the next. While a powerful attachment to Ander's gentle soul comforts her, but every time they connect, she feels his darkness just below the surface. Will's entire life has been a war against monsters, alongside his best-friend Ander. Honor bound by duty, he is brutal, relentless, and uncompromising in his mission to protect the masses. He didn't understand how much his world would change after saving Maeve, or how she would shatter his convictions. Ander may have magical talents but in his mind, nothing will redeem him from the abomination he is. Bound by more than shed blood, Will, his adopted brother, and only friend. Together they seek and destroy aberrations that poison the world. Until Maeve touched his hand, there was nothing else but the mission. With her, Ander could see a different side of himself, a different life. This is a character driven story written from the 3 main characters POV's. It's a mature adult dark romance & contains dubious triggering situations that some might find offensive. If you want an instant, fearless heroine, Maeve won't be it. Her story is discovering who she is & what power love can bring versus kicking monsters asses. Power & money aren't the only things that make the world turn & those that wield the greatest power control destiny. If you're looking for heroes, Will & Ander are NOT it. If you're drawn to tortured villainous souls, you'll enjoy their saga.

Lillian Steel A girl who's walked between worlds her whole life without even knowing. Her story is as broken as her mind: shatter and left to rot, with pieces missing some to be found and others lost somewhere she'll never reach. She used to scream out her pain, begging someone- anyone to help her, but now she lets it eat away at her in silence. Ironically enough, physical pain is the only way for her to find relief, so she hurts, and hurt, and hurts until there is nothing left to hurt, and the voices are finally silent. All she ever wanted was someone who would understand her screams and silence, and help her stop hurting, but all she ever got was more hurt. Erik Draven A mortal boy, destiny to walk the line between worlds in order to set wrongs right and claim the vengeance his soul desperately seeks. Behind the boy given the gifts of a god, is a boy with a broken soul and a romantic heart. All he ever wanted was to not be alone, but when life constantly dealt him shit hands, he had no choice but to fold. These two broken souls complement each other in ways that make them unique. That uniqueness draws unwanted attention, that threatens to separate the two perfect souls for all eternity. This is kind of based off of the new crow movie, but also not really at the same time. I love Bill Skarsgard and he's hot as f*ck, and what makes any man hotter, revenge and a face/abs covered in blood. This story is set it the same world as the movie (so I guess there are spoilers?). Credit to Lionsgate or whoever owns the characters from that movie, but the plot is almost entirely mine, minus the locations and obviously some of the characters. Enjoy the story :)
