The church grim is an animal guardian, usually a dog, that would be burried alive in a graveyard// churchyard. The first person to be buried at a new Yard was tasked with eternally protecting the building and gounds from evil. To make sure no human suffered the job, the dogs where chosen to take that mantle of pride in protecting all that who are buried there. The grim spirit in English and Nordic folklore, oversees the welfare of churches, and protects the churchyard from those who would profane and commit sacrilege against it. It often appears as a black dog but is known to take the form of other animals. In modern times, when black dogs are kept as pets in churches and their attached parsonages, these are called church Grims since they reside on and guard ecclesiastical property.

If that bothers you, sorry. Feel free to ignore that detail if you want to. It's not that important I guess, but it's mentioned a few times in the story. Just a heads up, you know? Another Side Note: This book, as well as it's sequel, are going under some serious editing, so if something's a little goofy that doesn't quite match up, realize I am making some major fixes to parts of the story and dialogue. Along with this, please don't mind that some of it is a little cringe. This is up there with one of my first stories ever made, and I promise, I've improved greatly since then, which you will notice by the time I finish editing what a difference it'll be.Complete

The Medium (Liminality #1)
It begins with the breaking of a gentle monster. Lenny is a defective vampire. Shy, insecure, and literally unable to kill, he tries very hard to avoid notice until the night he is kidnapped by a creature far worse, a vicious abuser determined to turn him into what a vampire ought to be. Worse, Lenny is also a medium, a creature born for the sole purpose of aiding the dead, and Sebastian is definitely a dead thing in need of help. Trapped by Sebastian's lethal mind control and by the compulsion of his own dual nature, Lenny's only hope is Kim, a practical young wizard tasked with hunting Sebastian down, but her ancient and powerful family is not nearly as accepting as she. Perhaps she can save Lenny from his captor and from the spark of violence growing inside him... Don't want to wait on the next chapter?
