To Love A River

In a dystopian future where Vampires emerged from the shadows in order to stop humanity from becoming extinct, a young woman with a dark past meets a charismatic stranger. As time goes by Private Love Aikawa of military unit 4-7, finds that she may not be as human as she first thought, and that humanity may not be the side that she should be fighting for. Battling rogue vampires, mutated creatures and her own past, Love works to unravel the mysteries behind the secretive Helsing unit. This novel starts intentionally slow through the exposition, everything kicks into gear in the latter half of Volume 1, so I hope you stick with it and enjoy the WILD ride! I also added some song recommendations along the way to listen to whilst you read certain chapters, I hope this helps boost the experience. Public Spotify playlist for Volume 1 is under the name: TLAR - Book 1 https://open.spotify.com/playlist/07czy216X1xB6F1mfRtl31?si=3cff937234e64589 Please comment and vote for your favourite characters along the way :)

Chapter 47. Songs in the dark

<< Ungodly Hour - The Fray >>

As Love retracted her mask to take a drag from the cigarette, Elora watched her from across the fire pit. She hadn't taken much notice as they ate, too consumed by the meal itself; but now that she could see her face in full, even with just the light of the fire to illuminate it, she could see that something had changed. 

Love had always attracted attention with her tall, slender frame and long dark hair, not to mention the cold steady gaze of her light grey eyes, but seeing her now Elora noticed a stark difference from just a week prior. 

Her complexion was healthy and bright like a porcelain mask that appeared to glow with radiance by the firelight, her eyes shining with life. And even with her hair pulled up into a ponytail she could tell that it even appeared thicker and darker than before, absorbing the light that touched it. 

Was this what even just a week of clean air and an abundance of food could do?
