Seeking Sanctuary
- Reads 47

- Parts 4
From the day you start to fear the dark -or at least what's hiding in the dark- you are told monsters aren't real. You are told nothing can harm you as long as you are brave and strong.
But that's not true.
I know monsters are real because I see and live with them everyday. I know they can harm me and I know that even when you are brave and strong. They can still harm you.
There's no peace. There is no hope, and there is definitely not a sanctuary. No place is safe, no place is home. Because life in The Fallen none of that is possible, not when you are being hunted and killed by The Damned.

Autumn Wraith took a step a 20-year-old shouldn't take. She was naïve for her own ruin. One wrong move, or should we say one wrong article? She writes about him, not knowing her pen was the knife that was going to turn on her. Her life was anchored to the devil. The devil vowed to keep her as his. Will she survive his obsession? Zyler Stone, 27. They say the devil was once an angel. But this man taught tricks to the horn-headed beast himself. What happens when he falls for a girl he vowed to kill? He was supposed to kill her, but for the first time, his hands couldn't fire that gun. He couldn't kill her. Instead, he decided to keep her for himself. The devil went far for her, too far that she couldn't take it. Will she move to hell with him, or will he move heaven and earth for her? Despite his initial intention to silence her, Zyler made her his. Obsessed with every move she made, he watched from the shadows, consumed by a dark desire he couldn't control. As Autumn's life begins to spiral out of control, she realizes that there's no escape from the darkness that surrounds her. In this heart-stopping tale of danger and desire, Autumn and Zyler are pitted against each other in a battle for control. But as their obsession spirals out of control, it becomes clear that only one of them will emerge from the darkness alive.Complete
Sweet Dreams
Monsters are everywhere, but the human ones are the worst. At least the Creatures of the Night don't kid almost families, friends, neighbors, coworkers. Once reborn they live in the night. Sure, they do all of the same twisted things that humans do to one another, but they don't hide who they are. When you see them you know death is coming. You can predict the sick things they will do to you. But when the monster looks human, you're blindsided. One minute you're in love with a guy and the next he's slitting your throat. Trust me, I speak from experience. Gruesome things that use to make me sick now makes my stomach flutter in joy. I traded charming grins and blue eyes for carved smilies and orbs of onyx. I traded sunlight for the glow of the moon. I gave up living amongst humans for creatures of the night. And I wouldn't go back for anything in the world. I am finally home. I've spent so much time running from monsters that it's my turn to do the chasing. Sweet Dreams...
