Ruby teardrops, a swift flick of the wrist. I didn't mean to kill her. Crimson liquid seeping through, my dagger erected in her chest. It was an accident. Screams echoing, desperate pleas. I didn't mean to kill any of them. My cobalt skirts heavy with every swaying step I take, every corpse I step over. 

 They made me.

[Completed] Corrine Adara has a secret so vital that if anyone were to find out, her and her entire family would be executed immediately. As a result, she lives in hiding among her family until one fateful night, she meets the Mad Prince of Daemons. Nikolas Veil is known as the Mad Prince for good reason. One could say he holds two spirits in his body; their personalities so different that they go by different names. Niko is responsible, sweet, and gentlemanly. Kol is violent, devious, and dangerous. Neither can agree on a single thing until they meet Corrine. When Corrine's secret is revealed to the Prince of the Daemons, she's certain her and her family will be executed. Instead, in a surprising turn of events, Prince Nikolas demands her to marry him. And Corrine, unfortunately, has no choice but to accept. Excerpt: "Look at me," He growled, releasing his grip to grasp my face in his claws dangerously. He forcefully turned me to face him, but I just as firmly held my eyes closed tight. "Let me go," I demanded breathlessly. "Look at me or I'll rip your eyes out right now," Kol demanded in turn. His grip tightened and his other hand lifted, reaching with those sharp claws no doubt to pluck my eyes from my skull. My eyes flew open and I gasped in panic, looking at those hovering fingertips. He froze above me, stunned. Tears stung at my eyes as I realized they were fully bright, molten gold before a Daemon; meaning I was doomed regardless. Daemons had wiped out all Seraph already. They wouldn't allow me to live and they would punish my father for hiding me. "Don't hurt my family," I pleaded abruptly, a sob escaping my throat as I began to tremble under him. "You can hide your eyes?" Kol asked with great interest. I choked on a response, but nodded quickly in fear. "Don't rip my eyes out," I requested tearfully. "I would never."

The only thing the murderer left behind was a delicate web of vines woven through the headless corpse. The number kept on increasing, while fear settled in the town. Detective Lorcan tries to find the serial killer responsible for their demise and all the headless bodies sprawled all over Kalis, as the forest grows in the eerie silence of their deaths and the smell of their blood. ************************************************************************************************** "I need to arrest you." was all Lorcan could manage, she aimed the revolver straight at the barber, breathing through clenched teeth, willing her lips to stop trembling. Claeg shook his head and a smile touched his face, eyes shining in the dark like emeralds. "You cannot" the grim expression on his face easing into a bitter smile. He slowly moved towards the grave, the machete gleaming in his hand, a faint stain of red smeared over it. "Don't move or I will have to shoot you" Lorcan warned, her voice firmer than before, but it seemed to fall on deaf ears, as Claeg still moved at the edge of the grave and then paused. "You cannot kill me. When people like us die, Et'hiwas spirit is passed over to another worthy person, who is then bound with the forest, a guardian gifted with incredible potential." Claeg repeated the words under his breath and then loudly, they sounded more like a parable, passed down for centuries, living only in the heart of some people. Lorcan lost her grip around the revolver before tightening her hand again as Claeg stared down at the machete in his hand. Contemplation lingering on his face. "Will you do me a favor, Detective Lorcan?" Claeg asked calmly, his eyes moved to Lorcan's hands before gazing back to her face, "Will you bury my head?" he looked at her, flickers of hope dancing in his eyes.
