Vampire Cohorts

It's never possible to run from your past. Sooner or later you have to turn and face it, either to fight the monsters that wait there, or to submit and fall beneath their claws.As a reincarnated Master vampire, I should've expected that to be tough. My memories of my past had been tampered with and hidden out of reach, so it proved difficult to prepare for the fang-baring creature snapping at my heels. On top of that, the one man capable of helping me understand who I'd been also believed he could only protect me by distancing himself. That I'd once been his wife made no difference in his mind; he'd failed me in the distant past, and he wouldn't allow it to happen again.It didn't help that I had secrets; things I couldn't share with Conn for fear they'd destroy him. There was darkness in my past and it was coming for me, but I suspected it would swallow my former husband, the man who I couldn't confess to loving, and who couldn't admit to loving me.

This is Valhalla, Little Warrior... Here there's pain. Here there's hell. Don't stay here for me...Right from the dawn of civilisation, war had wrought ruin on those fools who put their faith in love. It stole soldiers from sweethearts, warriors from wives, and it ensured that grief burgeoned; a putrid, swelling pustule that ate away everything good about love, like some necrotising bacteria on wounded flesh. It turned joy to despair, and corrupted hope until only thoughts of vengeance remained.I knew that.I'd felt it before; the suffocating weight on my chest which came from knowing the sun had winked out and plunged me into a world of darkness, ice, and hopelessness. Fenrir's maw had devoured all the sunlight from my world, and that understanding stole my breath, just as it had in the past, until my lungs burned against the bands of horror and grief that constricted around them.Conn had died.My mind rebelled against the notion and fire erupted around my hands again, magic skittering over my skin and crackling in the air around me, but there was no one left to fight. We'd let them go. It didn't matter that I'd slaughtered many of them, or that soot and ash still stained my skin from the rain of fire I'd brought down on our enemies. It wasn't enough. Not considering what they'd stolen from my cohort... What Fenrir had stolen from me.How could I survive this? How could I do this again? Angela is the author of the Vampire Cohorts Series.

"Your hatred is a constant reminder of every mistake I've ever made... but I can't bear it anymore. I can't stay afloat on a sea of hatred forever."I wanted to demand someone take my grief and regret away. I didn't care that my pain proved my love was real, because it also reminded me that it was a lost cause.Let my love be a burning fire, a flare of heat and energy that returned life to one who deserved to live, but then burned away everything I was so that I never had to feel anything ever again. Let that be my legacy. Let my life end with the defiance that had torn my Leof from Tiw's grasp. I didn't want my friends to make me wither in the aftermath, hopeless, and hollow, and never again strong enough to make a stand. Just let me sleep.Only I couldn't sleep. My friends wouldn't let me. Not while BritVaC planned on seeing Conn executed, and humanity wanted us eradicated. Osgar had kicked the hornets' nest, stirring up mortal hatred until we were all at risk, but which feud must I face first? Osgar? Osier? The very mortals who'd see us all burned at the stake? Would BritVaC back me into a corner? Or would my next conflict be fought against the very man I'd sacrificed so much to save?The feud Conn began the moment he banished me from Milbank House posed a greater threat to my wellbeing than any of my enemies, but the only way I could wrestle that power back from him would mean doing the one thing I'd refused to do during all my years as a slave. It would mean accepting that we were over. It would mean accepting that I was no longer my Leof's Little Warrior. Angela is the author of the Vampire Cohorts Series.
