Chapter 23 - Love In The Darkness
Rita was walking around the city very worried. She had no idea where to find Damon, besides, was afraid about him, after all, he was definitely devastated and one could not know what kind of an idea would show up in his head.
After an hour of searching, Rita finally spotted him on the bridge.- Damon?- she ran up to him, unsure of his intentions, though on the other hand a jump off the bridge could not kill a demon, so her fear was basically unfounded.- Rita? Rita Spencer?- Damon looked at her in disbelief.- What are you doing here?- he asked after a moment.- As soon as I found out what happened, I had to find you. Selene is devastated, she had an argument with her aunt, locked herself in the room and doesn't want to see anyone.- Rita replied, catching breath after running.- Believe me, I didn't want her to suffer. I... I was just afraid that if told her she would hate me completely, meanwhile, it all happened anyway...- Damon said in a broken voice.Related chapters

Alistair couldn't believe what he heard from Johhan. It wasn't until he heard Damon's words on tape that began to feel the fury overwhelming him. Alistair trusted Damon a lot, so he felt the more disappointed in this turn of events.- That damn traitor! Not only did he betray the Underworld, but also me, as I was like a father to him... I took this orphan to the court, not even knowing who his father was and who he would be after growing up... Ah, that damned foundling, he will remember me forever.- said Alistair, pacing back and forth across the room.- He wants to protect her? Okay, let it be, Damon will die with her then.- he added.Johhan and Salvadore watched him, standing in front of the throne. They felt a great deal of satisfaction inside, but of course they could not express it directly.- It's great that you recorded it. It was a bull's eye, irrefutable proof of Damon's guilt.- Salvadore whispered to his brother.- Well, I was very well prepared. Human t

Selene heard the rustling of leaves and immediately looked up. She jumped with terror when saw four men walking towards her.- Did we scare you?- said the man with dark blond hair in the front.- What do you want?- she asked, stuttering in fear.- We have to complete the mission that Damon was supposed to do.- replied the second man, with black, half-long hair, standing on the right side of the blonde.The other two stayed to the side. One of them was terribly thin, tall and had almost white hair, the other was slightly shorter, with a dark complexion and black, slightly curly hair. Sinister smiles appeared on both of their faces. The blond man in front approached her.- What a pity I have to kill such a lovely sorceress... You have your father's eyes.- he said, touching her face.Selene was shaking with fear. At first, there was chaos in her head, but when the blonde mentioned her father, she looked into his eyes in surprise.- How do you...- she

First, Damon patrolled the area around the Monroe family estate, straining all his senses, and when didn't sense even a hint of the presence of demons, he sat down on a tree branch and watched the area. Damon's main goal was now Salvadore. He had never liked this haughty, annoying demon, but when found out that he was the one who had killed Selene's father, hated him even more than usual, and knew very well that Salvadore would not give up and would want to complete the mission at all costs, so Damon had to kill him. Salvadore had always competed with him and certainly wanted to sneak into Alistair's favor now, after all, the game was all about taking over the throne of the Underworld, so he was a very dangerous opponent. Damon knew Salvadore all too well and was sure he would do absolutely everything to achieve his goal.- Now they will probably attack one by one, slowly, sneakily and from hiding. They know there are too many sorceresses in the house, and quite powerful too, t
Light & Darkness: Book 1 Chapter 27 - Whispers of Jealousy
Teresa walked around the garden while making sure nobody interrupted Selene and Damon from meeting them. Alice let her know the whole thing, because she and Rita needed an extra ally, and Alice trusted Teresa enough that had no doubts that she would be on their side. Teresa was touched by the love story of Damon and Selene, so she thought about it constantly, but at the same time was also alert in case any disturbing vision came to her.Marco got into the garden without much problem, because now almost all talismans were losing most of their power. Such protection was perhaps very effective against some evil spirits, but not demons. Having passed the talismans, Marco was slipping quickly between the trees now, trying not to catch any branches and therefore make any noise. He only stopped when saw the one behind the trees that had cast a spell on him. Her curly blonde hair floated in the breeze, and she looked even more lovely with that slight smile on her face. Marco wanted to

Chris went to scout the garden of the Monroe family house, while Salvadore and Johhan stayed outside the walls, waiting for news from him. Chris roamed the garden, taking the form of a raven. The silence around surprised him, and nobody patrolled the garden. It was completely empty everywhere.As Chris got closer to the house, he heard voices, and also felt magic emanating from inside the building. In raven form, he easily sat on a branch of a nearby tree and peered into the dining room and saw so many sorceresses and wizards at once for the first time in his life. They were all sitting around the table talking, and Chris was surprised to see that Marco was sitting on the windowsill, staring blankly at some point in the distance, clearly thoughtful. Finally, Chris spread his wings and flew towards the wall, then over it and landed on the pavement, transforming into his human form.- So, what's the situation?- Salvadore asked him, a little flustered.- Everybody's insi

Chris has returned from subsequent scouts and this time he had better news.- How is the situation now?- Salvadore asked him immediately.- They're done talking. Now most of them are scattered around the house and garden.- Chris replied.- So, who's attacking now?- Johhan asked, looking at each of them in turn.- I'll go.- Salvadore replied first.- What? Why? You've already been there lately.- Chris said, frowning, for he was very eager to fight.- Don't you dare to argue with me.- Salvadore replied in an indignant voice and scowled at him.Chris was about to cut in on his word, but seeing Salvadore's expression, he fell silent immediately. Johhan looked down, and although wanted to say something, he skipped any further comments. Johhan knew his brother very well and knew there was no point in arguing with him.Salvadore crossed the wall to the other side and immediately jumped on a tree branch, looked around as he checked the area, then jump
Light & Darkness: Book 1 Chapter 30 - Resting
Johhan and Chris had a great time battling Marco and Damon. They deftly escaped their blows, and enjoyed every skirmish. However, their good mood vanished as soon as the sorceresses appeared on the horizon.- I think we have a problem.- Chris remarked.- Time to disappear.- Johhan replied, winking at him knowingly, which meant it was time for their maneuver.First they drove all attackers to the very edge of the garden, then rushed straight into the wall, baffling the demons and sorceresses chasing them for a while, cause it looked like some kind of suicide mission. But then Johhan and Marco rose right in front of the wall and found themselves on the other side of it in no time, there they came across Salvadore and with him they quickly went to the portal that teleport to the Underworld.- They're gone, damn it!- Damon was clearly irritated, and punched the ground with all his strength.- I should have guessed they'd make this maneuver.- Marco added, guilt c

Before everyone knew it, another school year had arrived. Before it started, there were several more attacks from Salvadore, Johhan and Chris, but Selene was watched day and night. Later, even during her lessons at school, Damon was always somewhere around, ready to protect her, although he doubted that Salvadore would attack Selene in a place with a lot of people. Maybe he was getting more and more desperate, but for sure was not so stupid. No matter how powerful some demons were, they never risked exposing themselves to too many mortals at once.Jennifer and Sarah, Selene's school friends, also did not leave her side, as if they subconsciously knew something was going on, although in fact they were still blissfully ignorant.- How are you and Damon?- Jen asked excitedly.- Everything is fine... Even auntie got used to him.- Selene replied, recalling the last days of vacation and aunt Meredith, who was talking to Damon more and more, and as heartily as ever.- T
