Julius felt warm. Really warm, and comfortable. Cozy was a good word.  Part of that had to go with where he was, but most of it had to do with who he was with. Well, that and the incredibly comfortable blankets he was currently resting under, his arms wrapped around Claire. Up until she startedContinue reading “Chapter 46 – A New Morning”

So it turned out Julius didn’t actually have to fight a random woman in a restaurant. In fact, it was kind of the opposite. The random woman in question turned out to be a werewolf by the name of Jofrid Otakin, she was apparently Fergus’s cousin–her dad was the grandnephew of his mother’s father orContinue reading “Chapter 44 – The Winning Streak Continues”

“So are you all masochists at that church?” Cyrus asked the instant they all sat down at the table, eyeing Julius’s bandaged up body, “Because there’s such a thing as taking a fetish too far.” “Don’t be gross, pops,” Mira retorted, earning a pout from her pops. “What?

Plachor was about what Julius expected, while also not at all what he thought it would be.  For one thing, darklander architecture was fucking weird. According to Seona, it was “gothic”, which apparently meant a ton of clustered structures and intricate designs on every single building. Also lots of spikes and spires springing up allContinue reading “Chapter 40 – The City of Blood”

Julius crashed straight into the chimera, charging low as it met his advance with one of its own. He had to move to avoid the horns, move to avoid the teeth, and drove his fist hard with all the rage he had into the side of the beast’s head, knocking it off to the sideContinue reading “Chapter 38 – The Charred Region”

It was impossible to tell how much time had passed on the ‘journey’–everything became a blur of fire as the angel flew Julius to wherever they were going–and the instant Julius regained control over his body again, he had to brace himself as Michael dropped him straight to the rough ground.  A plume of ashContinue reading “Chapter 37 – The Dark Lands”
