The Pierce family has already lost one love, Caspian, when he felt he was no longer worthy of their family name. Will Danika follow his footsteps and will he be able to save her from a fate far worse than his own? For your enjoyment a little TEASER........
I need to give Nathanial more details about me, my existence and what is come.
“This place is wonderful!” He gives me one of those crocked half smiles and runs his hand through his truffle brown hair in the way that melts me.
“I know. We found it one night when we were looking for food.” I explain. “I figure now would be a good time to explain everything to you.”
“Perfect. I want to know everything.”
“Well I’ll begin with a little vampire history, what do you know about vampires? Actually never mind, I’ll just explain if that is ok?” I mutter, nervously tapping my foot.
“Relax you don’t need to be nervous, I’m not going to judge you, just explain and I will listen, saving all questions for after your explanation.” He soothes me within seconds.
“Fair enough, but I do want you to stop me if it becomes too much for you to handle.” I insist.
“From the beginning there has been a myth that the first of our kind was Cain, the son of Adam and the first murderer. Cain murdered his brother Abel because God preferred the gifts Abel gave to him over Cain’s gifts. It was out of pure jealousy Cain killed his brother. God could not believe Cain had done such a thing and as his punishment Cain was cursed by God and transformed in to a vampire, forced to walk the earth alone night after night for all eternity. Cain was therefore exiled from the people and forced to stalk the civilization. He feared the sun because it burned him and it was extremely painful. So he would come out at night to hunt the mortals, he was ravenous for blood.” I begin to pace a little.
“Cain met a powerful witch called Lilith who some believe to be Adam’s first wife. I personally don’t understand how that is possible. I mean if you believe in God don’t you believe that Adam and Eve were the first human’s created if that’s true how was Lilith his first wife?”
“Sophia, you’re rambling.” Nathanial chuckles.
“Sorry, right. Okay so Lilith has also been called the Goddess of night, a demon and the bearer of disease, illness and death. She showed Cain how to use his own blood for magick and evoke his unknown mystical powers. From Lilith, Cain learned how to create others of his kind. This process is called ‘Embracing’ a mortal must be bitten by a vampire, the venom or poison in their saliva combined with a few drops of the vampire’s own blood, begins the transformation. The mortal body ceases and the immortal body takes over. Now this can only happen as long as the mortal is not drained of too much blood, there must be enough to keep the heart beating. The vampire blood and venom enters the mortals system as the heart pumps it through the entire body the Embrace begins.”
I pause for a moment to gauge his reaction, which is nothing except complete and intense interest.Come join the Pierce family and their friends on the next stages of their journey September 1, 2011 and then follow it with Mystic Embrace when the magick takes over on November 1, 2011
