When Dante drinks the blood of a woman with AIDS, his health takes a turn for the worse. His immune system should be infallible, but here he is: every day, he wakes up healthy, only to attract another painful and rare disease during the day that is miraculously cured at night. It is a never-ending cycle and dreams and reality seem to blend into nothing but pain. And unlike Prometheus, there will not be a Heracles to kill the eagle and break the chains. He'll have to save himself, but can he do that when he's his own worst enemy? There's no antidote for life or suffering. *** Trigger warnings: loneliness, mild self-hate (mostly for being a vampire), passive desire to die, mention of past torture, detailed description of flu-like symptoms, symptoms of depression, anxiety Cover by the wonderful @_coffeewithhoney

Two sets of eyes stare into the flame. Red, gold, blue and orange dance over the small matchstick's head, darkening the tinder as it destructively draws out life from the wood.

[ CURRENTLY ON HOLD = NO UPDATES UNTIL I FINISH MY OTHER BOOK OFF WATTPAD ] "you're in a waiting room of a clinic that promises to cure writer's block" Giving up on draft after drafts of half-thought out stories for the last five years, Gwen Storm was certain that her writing career would never take off. That is, until she finds a flyer slid under her apartment door promoting a new clinic that had just opened round the block. A clinic that promises to cure writer's block. That first step into the clinic and the advice she receives convinces her to return yet again, and subsequently join the clinic as its newest worker. Meeting people from all walks of life, delivering an odd assortment of items to houses and nearly getting bitten by a Chihuahua on more than one occasion, having deep conversations with her co-workers, and getting advice from someone she was supposed to be coaching were all not what Gwen had expected. That whole summer was unlike what she had thought would be. But that's what you do right?
