Being immortal had is perks and it's downsides.
Perks: living out fantasies that people can only dream of, experiencing new things, living the past, beauty forever, etc.
Regrets: watching friends and family grow old and die, be stuck at the age of 16, never getting a real job you are probably over qualified for, living off the lives of others forever, and even more than etc.
My name is Sophia Marie Elizabeth Kingsmith and I am 229 years old, single, forever 16, and have lived a million lives. I've had adventures quite literally out of fantasy books. I've pirated the whole Atlantic sea, experienced all of the World Wars, and I am a vampire! Yup! Fangs and all.
However....there is something a little different about me...*looks around* Can I tell you a secret? Will you keep it? Not to tell a soul?
Okay, okay, come in a little closer. Nope, closer.
Haha! Like I would actually tell. I haven't lived this long just to give away my most secret secret of my whole existence just to tell a stranger. You'll just have to wait and see.
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.
