In the land of Paolark, where justice was a luxury that only the wealthy could afford, Selene made her living as a bounty hunter. She was known for her ruthless methods and her ability to track down even the most elusive fugitives. Her reputation preceded her, and she was feared and respected in equal measure. Selene had always been a woman of uncommon determination and focus, and her single-minded pursuit of her goals had led her to some of the most dangerous corners of Paolark. But now, she had set her sights on a new target - the Prince Kairlan, the Heir to the throne. Kairlan was a man of mystery and intrigue, with a reputation that bordered on myth. Selene had heard whispers that he possessed powers beyond those of mortal men, and she was determined to find out the truth. She spent weeks gathering information about his movements and habits, studying his every move until she felt she knew him inside out. But as Selene closed in on her prey, something unexpected happened. She found herself drawn to Kairlan in a way she couldn't explain. It was as if there was something about him that called to her on a primal level, something that went beyond mere curiosity or greed. Selene tried to ignore these feelings, reminding herself that Kairlan was just another target, another bounty to be collected. But as she watched him from afar, she couldn't help but feel a strange sense of longing and desire. It was as if Kairlan held the key to some deep-seated need within her, a need that she had never fully understood. As Selene continued to stalk Kairlan through the streets of Paolark, she found herself growing more and more conflicted. She knew that capturing him would mean putting an end to his life, but she couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to Kairlan than met the eye. She began to wonder if there might be another way - if perhaps she could find a way to save him instead of killing him.

There are worse things than death. ___ "What is wrong with you?" I seethed. She had my back against the wall, pinning me down so I couldn't move. She was much stronger than me, even when I used my strength to get out of her embrace. I held her gaze and I knew that she was gone. There wasn't an ounce of goodness left in her body. She laughed at my question. Of course, I knew what was wrong with her. But I have to find a way to get her back. "What is wrong with me? Ha, nothing sweetheart." she told me with a smile on her face. "I'm just having a little fun." "Yeah, and fun for you is killing innocents," I growled. "Oh, I hate to say this to you but they aren't all innocent." I finally broke free of her and I dropped her to the floor. I held her down with both arms while I was on top of her. All she did was give me a smile. An eerie smile that made a shiver run down my spine. "I should kill you for what you've done," I whispered. "I should make you pay." "Oh, but Sebastian, you won't," she said. "You know why? Because at the end of the day I'm still me, and you will never hurt me, will you?" I hated that she was right. I couldn't kill her. My mind told me that it would be the best to do it but my heart told me otherwise. I mentally cursed at myself for letting this happen to her. "Elora, I know you're still in there." I said. She was still on the ground, but she was not resisting which seemed odd. "She died a long time ago," she said finally. "Alongside her love for you." ___ Book Two in the "From Death to Life" Trilogy #13 in Bloodlust
