The Everlasting Flame

Monsters are real and so are demons.

They live inside us, taking form as a mere demon on your shoulder as if it would be so easy to defy them. As if they're a fly, chased away at the wave of a hand.

Sometimes they're jealous, they fight for your spot. They fight for you. Sometimes they ruin you, ripping you apart at the seams until you surrender.

And sometimes..

They win.

Sometimes it is you, now on their shoulder, begging for better. Begging for redemption. Begging for mercy.

But their response is simple yet deadly, because a demon looks like everything you thought you wanted.

"You ask for mercy? Where was mine?"

..

One thing seraphina learns is; not everyone can be a hero. She's tried. But she is not a hero nor is she a savior.

She is Seraphina Mirae Solace.

So the question she asks you, mortals and immortals alike, just how easy is it to slip over the thin line of good and evil?

And just how easy is it for you to lose everything?

...

A novel full of Greek mythological references, badass woman, morally grey characters and plot twists that will have your jaw dropping.

...

"Make me."

I'm unsheating my blade in seconds, pushing it to pierce his skin. Small drops of black blood bead around the blade and he grabs the blade, pushing it closer. "That's more like it," he praises. There's a wicked look in his eyes and for a moment i'm speechless.

"Fuck you," comes in a whisper. His eyes follow the curve of my lips as i murmur the curse. With a lick of the lips, he's looking back up, eyes darkened. "I will," he promises.
