A high school drop out living in her twin sister's shadow has given up on the world and herself. With severe depression, anxiety, a rare blood disorder, and hallucinating shadow figures, her life seems to be nearly hopeless. Madeline can't go to school or hold a job without experiencing a panic attack brought on by the dark figures that seem to be everywhere. Living a life in terror and failure, plus a rare blood disorder that leaves her constantly fatigued, is not the life she wanted. The weekly therapy sessions and blood transfusions only can do so much. Madeline decides to end it all, but on that night, the shadow people save her... then tell her that she is the only one that can save them.

Hello! I'd like my readers to know:
Please understand that this is a rough draft, there are spelling and grammar mistakes, more than I'd like to admit, so bare with me. I will frequently edit and rewrite chapters. The story may be too mature for some. Enjoy!
Ari and Soren's adventures continue as Soren struggles with his new vampiric urges and a coven of witches attempts to recruit Ari for their own ends.
*****
As dark dreams plague Soren, Ari finds his new abilities difficult to control. Something is awakening within him, and as his power grows, he attracts the attention of a group of witches who call themselves the Hecataeon. They believe Ari is an emanation of the goddess Hecate - a physical manifestation of her power - and they want that power for themselves. With their relationship facing challenges from within, Ari and Soren must find a way to unite their strengths before external forces tear them apart.
