Prologue
The Descendants - Rise of the Reaper Army/Brindell Bailey
Hell was home to thousands of demons; tens of thousands. A cauldron of sin, the realms were stacked one upon the other, each darker and more sinister than the one above. It was everything humans feared and more. Oppressive and dirty, the halls twisted in an eternity of circles, trapping souls in an endless search for light. There was no time to mark, and no end to crave. And there was the screaming. So much screaming. The primal sound of a soul in agony was something humans would never comprehend. If they knew what awaited them in hell they would wish for eternal nothingness. The fear

The trees were bare, their leaves long gone and snow on the ground would make hiding his tracks almost impossible. He should turn back. There was every chance a blizzard could set in. Not that the cold would have any effect on his body. For Gabriel every day was like a winter’s morning; cold and dark. For years he had felt nothing and, how could he? He was dead.Taking shelter behind the only thing he could find, a decaying wooden fence that had seen better days, Gabriel crouched down and took one la

Back in his cabin, Gabriel swore out loud. He was supposed to be a hunter, a vigilante, but that woman, whatever she was, had completely thrown him off his game.“Damn, it,” he cursed. “Damn her. What the hell was I thinking?”He pace

Aurora fell onto the bed. She would never dare to cry in front of the others, but in the privacy of her bedroom she let out her grief. The loss of Stefan had shattered her heart into a thousand pieces. Her only brother was dead. She had been warned. Her visions had shown Stefan’s death at the hands of a vampire, but it had seemed impossible. No new vampires had walked the earth for hundreds of years. Yet still, she prepared and planned, and hoped maybe there would be a way to save Stefan’s life. Wh

Gabriel crouched down and scooped a pile of snow into his hand. In his palm, the shards shone like diamonds in the moonlight. Every year the snow came earlier. Just by a week or two, but he noticed. Change was all around. He could sense it in the earth and feel it on the wind. It was more than just Aurora and the farmhouse. There was a certain vibration in the air, a shift of some kind. Something was coming.In his former life, Gabriel led missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. He fought the enemy head-on. He was a

Aurora was speechless. She wiped at her tears and turned away from the window. “I don’t believe you Jasmyne. Why are you making up such lies?”But instead of apologizing, her sister got to her feet and repeated the words that had sent her mind reeling.

Back in his cabin, Gabriel’s head was spinning. He had so many questions and that Lucius creature had not provided any answers. Vampires were killers, that much he knew, and yet back in the field, he had not been in any danger. All Lucius seemed to care about was Aurora and some stupid quest. He stomped over to the kitchen and poured himself a glass of water. There had to be a way to find out what was going on.

Aurora was stunned at the ultimatum. “Jasmyne how can you say such things?”“It’s enough Aurora. No one loved Stefan more than I did, but the way you’re reacting to his death is unimaginable. It’s like you’ve gone mad and now you’re out here with this murderer. What were you thinking?”

It was almost time. Melloch could feel the energy crackling through his body. It was electric, igniting his insides, twisting and coiling inside him like a live wire. Soon he would be on the surface, terrorizing, slaughtering, devouring. He and his army would descend upon the earth like a plague. Spread out before him, his army had already begun to prepare. He could feel their hot anticipation rising through the ranks, and he reveled in their thirst.

The Descendants - Rise of the Reaper Army/Brindell Bailey
He had given Aurora the bed, and after watching the clock tick down hour after hour, Gabriel was unable to rest any longer. His head was filled with wild ideas about slaying monsters, saving the world, and he couldn’t deny it; Aurora. She was unlike anyone he had ever met. Sure, he had dated women, even come close to marriage once back when he was human, but never anyone like her. She was stubborn and determined, but there was also a part of her that was tender and broken. At times he was torn between wanting to kiss her, and shout at her all at the same time. He didn’t know what any of it meant, but the scary part was that he liked it.
