THE AMBY AWARDS 2022 WINNER (Best Series) Book One (Book Three of the trilogy is on the WATTYS 2022 SHORTLIST) Wattpad featured story. The Adept Pen 21 finalist. Samara, a young woman from London, visits Bran Castle in Romania during a Halloween night. Somehow, she's always felt drawn to the story of Vlad the Impaler, the historical character who allegedly inspired the writer, Bram Stoker, to write his Count Dracula. Annoyed by her noisy friends, she strolls behind her group when they enter the castle and thus gets approached by their tall dark and handsome guide. Samara can't fight the attraction she feels for him, even after he claims to be Vlad Dracul himself, obviously making fun of her...or? At the end of the tour, unable to resist her curiosity, she follows the guide through a dark corridor and time travels to another time, a late medieval world populated by very unusual vampires, where she had once belonged. The mysterious guide turns out to be her husband, none less than Vlad III, the Prince of Wallachia, the Impaler... Dracula. Samara's memories start to trickle back slowly, both good and bad. The man she loves so much that she feels overcome by her feelings for him is not exactly as he was when she left him before, when she... died. A lot of things have changed in her absence, in six hundred years. But she is changed too, having grown up in the 21st century this time around, she is not quite the same girl as when she lived in Vlad's castle, in the late medievals. Will the great love they feel for each other despite their long separation be strong enough to overcome all their differences? Will Samara and Vlad accept each other as they are now and fight for their love? Will they defend it in the dangerous world they live in, full of people, or better vampires, who would rather see them apart? In this place where nothing and no one is what they really seem to be at first sight? Cover: @WakeWriteWrath

I've taking inspiration from some of my favorite well known sources to bring this story to life. Some of them include The Lord of the Rings, The Witcher, Eragon and even Harry Potter. If you enjoy epic fantasy stories then I think you'll enjoy my story The Chronicles of Arnora: The Curse of the Blood Moon. This is an original story of my own creation with my own original characters. Before I started publishing my story on Wattpad I've had several people read it and they've told me it was good and they enjoyed reading it and I hope you all enjoy it as well. I've always been told I have a very active and creative imagination and I should use that i it a like and follow for more chapters to come. Please feel free to point out any grammatical errors you find that I may have missed as I'm constantly editing the story to make it better. *If any names in my story are that of real world people it's completely coincidental, I use a random name generator, which creates countless names, to help with the naming of some of my characters.

Long ago, before the Lutrosy Empire, powerhouse of the southern continent, there existed a small sect of priests who worshipped an unknown god of history. This god is said to have given onto it's few worshippers a piece of itself, The Tome of Past. The one who carries the tome is said to have been given a great mission. To collect the stories of the deceased to put into the tome. It is said by the ancient stories and the whispers of superstitious peasants that the tome grants an individual the ability to experience the past of the deceased. However, the Tome is thought to have been lost during the formation of the Lutrosy empire when King Francesco Severoth marched his armies to West Replure and conquered his brother's lands before unifying the middle of the southern continent. Now, with the tome becoming ancient legend, there are few who believe it existed at all. After all such a powerful artifact would have been found by now by the machinations of lore obsessed wizards or god inspired clerics yet it remains lost. But fate is a mysterious beast, a book that many powerful figures would risk their lives for ends up in the hands of a young man who knows not it's true value... Hi, I'm the creator of this story, I go by Flyingtelop as my online handle. I made an unfinished story awhile back that was really bad. I've returned with a vengeance though and learned more about writing. This is a significantly improved product from my other story, The Forest Of Madness. This story will not have a consistent upload schedule, I plan to put everything I have into this novel so each chapter will take a lot of time for me to complete. Each chapter will hold at least 10,000 words of hopefully decent quality. If a chapter's bad I will literally rewrite the chapter so it shows as much quality as I can muster - Flyingtelop
