The Darkness Finding Friends
1986 I don't know what happened today. Actually, I can't believe what happened today. I was sitting in the living room reading Karaka: Legend of Juno written by Michelle Williams and Kasper was reading Twin Daggers written by Lori Skov Jansen when a freak storm blew out the front window. As we covered the window, I heard Cammie screaming from her room. Kasper rushed up the stairs to see what was going on. He got as far as the top step before I heard the curses. Cammie had been playing with some of my powders. When one of them started to smoke, she ran into the hall and collided with him. The potion fell to the floor bleaching a huge area on the top step. Quinn came home only to find Oshey was gone. I had no idea she had left, and neither did Kasper or Cammie. Before Quinn could panic, Noah called and told him he saw Oshey downtown. Quinn decided we had to play babysitter, while he went looking for her. I hate my life. I hate Oshey. ~~~ "Quinn, I'm glad you could meet me," Noah s
The Darkness A Discovery and Deaths
1986"Welcome to my home." A sudden masculine voice boomed through the room as the lights from overhead flooded whiteness. "How good of you to join me," James said, coming into view. James carried Cammie's body as he walked toward a metal desk."Cammie!" Oshey exclaimed, rushing forward. Quinn and Noah reached out to grab Oshey, preventing her from going further.The tall man looked between Oshey and the girl in his arms. "Cammie? Oh, you mean Macille." James said. He looked down at the girl in his arms again with a smile. "How nice of you to keep her safe for me." James kissed her forehead tenderly."Why don't you put her down?"
The Darkness Endings and Beginnings
Present DayNatalia entered the warehouse and stopped suddenly. Her eyes narrowed as she took a deep inhale, sniffing the air several times. “Jimmy, I think we found the place.”Jimmy tilted his head toward the direction his wife was looking. “How can you tell?”“Do you see that marking on the wall?” Natalia pointed to a small engraving near the ceiling. It would have gone unnoticed if she had not pointed it out.Jimmy walked closer and saw the vague impression of something. “You mean this?”“Yes, that's a warning sign. I'm convinced this is the place.” Natalia nodded.Jimmy glanced over his shoulder to the door. “I figure we have about twenty minutes, let's take a look.” Given that this warehouse was owned by Michelle Pilkerton, Jimmy knew they had limited time before one of her goons showed up.They walked through a series of doors. The warehouse didn't seem abnormal; there were boxes and freight stacked in neat piles. Jimmy stood in the middle of the large room. “What h
The Darkness An Unexpected Letter
A gentle breeze from the south brought a thick cloud cover, which blocked the afternoon sun. Jessica Gotti had not noticed the changing weather until the mail carrier appeared and handed her a bound stack. Flipping through the pile, she took a select handful to her car and dumped them in the passenger seat. Looking over the front window of the gallery, she felt a tickle on the back of her neck, as though someone was watching her. Quickly turning around and finding nothing out of place she rubbed her temples, dismissing the sensation as a sign of stress from the extra work she’d put in, so the opening date would not be delayed again.Realizing it was almost 3:00 P.M. She decided to head home. The drive lulled her mind from the hectic schedule she had been living by. The rhythmic sound of the tires erased all the stress of the last few days. Moreover, for the first time, she knew in her heart that the opening would go off as planned with no backlashesShe was listening to a Final
The Darkness The Night Yada Lived
We killed my father tonight.He didn’t leave me any choice. James, or that is what he called himself in human form, was a killer. He attacked five wolfin across the region before he finally captured me. He taunted me for several days before I knew what I needed to do.I could not allow him to go on. I couldn’t have more blood on my hands. I already had too much blood on my hands with Anos death. James killed him because he was my friend. I still do not understand Lyceums or their thinking, but I am learning. Daily I am learning about the war on the streets between the Wolfin’s and the Lyceums. And I dislike what I am finding out.My education started the day he kidnapped me. It was the day he killed Jake. I rather miss Jake, even if he was a real pain in the ass. A second event happened that day. It was the day Gabriel entered my life. Rescuing me from James set into motion a chain of events that lead me back to the warehouse tonight.My mate Noah was there. He and Quinn had figured
The Darkness Meeting Vincent
April 19, 1991I made my first real kill tonight. I thought killing an undead thing would make me feel some sort of remorse. I don’t, though. I feel more alive than I have ever felt. I feel like I was born to do this job. The feeling scares the hell out of me and at the same moment electrifies me.I’ve given careful thought to my attacker. I was unprepared for the fight and nearly lost my life. I realized that if it had not been for fast thinking and skill, I would now be dead. I guess in the heat of the moment you don’t have time to think, you can only react to your training. I have heard people say the fight or flight instinct takes over. I have to agree. Survival, my survival, was the only thing I had in mind.I wasn’t as fast as he was, and the trophy he earned will mar my thigh forever. I learned tonight that if I am to live in this world, I need to become a better killer. I don’t mean the type of killer that pulls a gun and gets the job done. I mean the type of kil
The Darkness First Blood
“That went well,” she whispered, leaning her head against the wall after shutting his door. Yada knew she would have to deal with other vampires, but she didn’t expect to tonight. Not all the training had prepared her for an actual face-to-face meeting with someone of Vincent’s age. Sure, she had met a few others and even attended a council meeting once, but she was not allowed to speak. Pushing off the wall, Yada found the restroom and splashed water against her face. She looked in the mirror, seeing a pale-faced woman with thick eye makeup standing behind her. The woman’s face powder was heavy, giving her the appearance of the undead. Yada splashed more water on her face and rubbed the back of her neck. The meeting with Vincent proved more stressful than she cared to admit. The light above her head suddenly crackled and flickered before going out. The window behind the woman allowed enough pale light to seep through the blinds, so she could see faint outlines. Beside the
The Darkness He is a Monster
Gabriel bit into his wrist and offered it to her. When she brought it to her mouth, he held her tighter. Her body started to reject his blood. It happened every time he fed her. The human body does not accept the blood of the undead. Out of instinct, the stomach convulses, trying to expel what is ingested. Gabriel told her eventually it will subside. Gabriel waited until the fight ended before biting into Yada’s wrist. The moment he did, Yada’s mind began to fill with images from Gabe’s past.~~~August 2, 1701“Gabriel.”It wasn’t his real name, but a name he decided to use some years ago, after the birth of Christianity, when he settled into a small area outside of Rome. He and his brother were mistaken for a pair of Angels. Some hesitant locals said they could only be the hand of God and referred to them as the Fallen Michael and Gabriel. The thought had always amused them, and the pair decided to keep the names as long as they brought fear to man. As long as man feared
