Chapter
Disturbance in the Women’s Ward
Eva rolled a bloodstone between her fingers. Aside from the bloodstone embedded in the hilt of her dagger, this was her last bloodstone. And it was one of the good ones, too. The ones from the museum that had a drastically longer shelf life than they should. As such, despite having the ritual circle set out and all the reagents collected, Eva was loath to actually put it to use. According to the ritual tome, what she currently had set out should give her a one-way connection to the target, allowing…-

Chapter
Development in Treatment
Eva stepped out of the women's ward gate room to find a corpse lying on her couch. Somewhat unusual. Not exactly what Eva had been hoping to find immediately after teleporting home. Especially because she was still feeling somewhat wobbly and wanted the couch to herself. Slumping into one of the chairs, Eva sent a glare in the corpse's direction. The corpse didn't even look up from her book. "Curls today? Your hair was straight at the cathedral." The vampire sat up on the couch, resting the…-

Chapter
A Vampire, Demon, and a Nun
If Eva had been regretting the ritual before, she was now thinking that it just might be the death of her. Sawyer was still dissecting corpses around the ritual ring. By the looks of things, he would be at it for a while. Which gave Eva plenty of time to focus on the events around her, despite the queasy feeling it gave her. As they moved, first to a van and then from the van to a small smoke-filled bar, Eva held on to Nel. Both for support and because she had decided to wear her blindfold. While…-

Back Among Friends
Eva slid to a stop on the sidewalk a few roads away from where they found Juliana's cellphone. She waited just long enough for Arachne to catch up. "I feel it too," Arachne said before Eva could ask. "Or rather, I no longer feel him." "Just checking to make sure I wasn't broken," Eva said with a slight nod of her head. "Think he got banished again?" Arachne's tongue ran across the edges of her carapace around her mouth, wetting them slightly. "It would be awfully embarrassing if he did. Not that I…-

Chapter
Deserted
Devon stalked down the deserted streets of Brakket City. The streets were more deserted than normal. Few people remained in the city. Only a handful stayed. The brave or the foolish. The apathetic as well. A few stubborn townsfolk hadn't left yet. They had nowhere to go or perhaps they figured that they had weathered everything else, what was one more thing? Some of Brakket Academy's staff had remained behind. Or so he had heard from one of the professors that stopped by the prison on occasion. A…-

Chapter
The Book
A chilly breeze ran over the dormitory rooftop. Eva shivered. The early sunsets and low temperatures in mid September were nothing like Florida. She had purchased pants, but hadn't expected to need them until November or December at least. At this rate, Eva would need to go out and buy some long underwear. Or perhaps look into magical methods of keeping warm. Surely they existed. If not, her runes hadn't failed her yet. She'd just use the same runes that heated her shower water. In contrast to the…-

Book One Epilogue
"Spencer!" Eva crushed a glass vial in her hands. She glared up at the teacher. Or the black band of leather over her eyes glared up. "Gloves off in this class unless they're lab gloves." "I was doing fine until you shouted at me." "You'll soak up materials you don't want to walk around with." Professor Lurcher glowered down at the girl. "Gloves off." The steel spoon bent in her other hand. Grains of paradise spilled over the table. Eva grit her teeth. She threw down the spoon with a clatter…-

Bullfight
Things were going to Hell in a handbasket. Lynn Cross only wished the situation wasn’t so literal. Something went very wrong somewhere along the line. Royalty from Hell itself targeting the Elysium Order. Not just any part of the order, but Charon Chapter. The idea would have made Lynn laugh under other circumstances. Under less dire circumstances. Now the whole town had shown up to burn the order out-of-town like some sort of puritan witch hunt. Fools. The lot of them. The town was…-

Motivations
"I understand that the dean's secretary was filling in during my absence, the topic--" "We discussed rituals again," Mr. Weston all but shouted out as he hopped to his feet. "At first I thought it was going to be some boring thing we already learned last year. Then she started getting into all the gritty details." He paused and glanced around the room with a raised eyebrow. "Or should I say gooey details?" Several snickers ran though several of the students--both male and female. More than a few…-

Reunion
"I hope this washes out," Eva said, tossing her sticky hair over her shoulder. No matter how much she tried to strain it out, it was like the gunk multiplied in her hair as her fingers ran through it. Her fingers were covered in the stuff as well, so she probably was just wiping more through her hair than she was actually cleaning off. "Better than sand," Arachne said. She wasn't even trying to clean herself off. The black ooze added a layer of sheen to her already shiny carapace. Eva wiggled her…-
