Valerian Empire

A dark time when the creatures of shadow descended unto the tranquil human lands, making their existence known. A time followed when empires were led by humanity's conspiracy and betrayal, a time filled with hatred, but unbeknownst to the humans, they were only mere puppets, pawns of greater beings of darkness, entities with the power to crush anything and everything in their way. What happens when a small human girl catches the eye of one of these so-called greater beings, a pureblooded Lord? Can an ant such as her survive the political strifes and fearsome feuds between the lands and the monsters that control them. For those who fear vampires, ghosts and the unknown, I offer two words of advice… Tread lightly. -------- "Why should I avoid him? He was a perfect gentleman, a good man," Katherine Welcher argued in his defense. "Good or not, neither matter," Alexander Delcrov warned her, "As long as you're under my wing, you shall behave and listen to my words. Do not let any man kiss you, Katherine. I don’t want others to call you improper." "There was nothing improper about it! And I'm not yours to obey," she blurted out in annoyance, feeling her face flush with embarrassment for the second time this evening, "I mean, you can't order me aro—-" "So disobedient," he stated with nonchalance before moving his hand from her waist to her back, pulling her closer to him as they danced. His breath tickled her nape. "So you’ll only listen if you are mine?"

One bite- Part 1

Both Katie and her cousin Ralph sat in front of the graves of their families in the cemetery.

It was a quiet morning, with the birds in the distant chirping and the sun shining bright in the sky. Katie caught hold of her dress when a breeze swept past them picking up the dried twigs and leaves along with the dirt of mud with it.

She caught sight of a woman with a little girl at one side of the cemetery. The little girl had her hands joined near her chest, eyes closed as she prayed for the one in the grave. As they passed by the woman bowed to which Katie did the same from a far distance. Though she didn't know them or hadn't striked a conversation before, there were some people she often met in this place to offer their thoughts and prayers whom she had got familiar with as months had passed during her stay in Valeria.

Her prayers were quick and therefore she walked towards a particular grave while giving her cousin time and space to mourn his parents.
