All Chapters of A Light In The Heart Of Darkness: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Chapter 12 Kotaro and Toya tried running each other off the road all the way to Kyoko’s apartment. They had just rounded the corner to her street when they saw a small boy in odd clothing go flying from Kyoko’s window and land on his back in the front yard. “What the fuck?” Toya yelled. Kotaro slammed on his brakes and jumped out of his car. He would have recognized the little brat anywhere. “Yuuhi,” he growled then caught movement out of the corner of his eyes. Yohji chose this moment to run from his hiding spot to the stairs leading up to Kyoko’s apartment. His mind was not fully registering the two vehicles that had stopped in front of the building or who was driving them. The only thing on his mind was ‘rescuing’ Kyoko from whatever the freak of nature was that had crawled up to her window. He saw the boy fall to the ground and nearly laughed. ‘He must have slipped,’ Yohji thought. ‘Use the stairs next time dumb ass.’ “That one’s mine,” Toya exclaimed and ran aft

Chapter 14 Kotaro’s hands tightened into fists as he stood beside Yohji, trying to get him to stand still while cuffing him. “Damn it you nimrod, if you don’t stand still, I’m going to shoot your kneecaps off,” he growled at the half dumb ass, half-vampire. “Then you can sure as hell sit still!” Why was it always him left babysitting the idiots and fools? The bright lights of the police vehicles were starting to bother his sensitive eyes, making him annoyed. ‘You’d think I’d be used to them by now,’ Kotaro thought wryly as two patrol officers took Yohji off his hands. After answering a few questions from the investigating detective, he was congratulated on having thwarted another possible disappearance. He didn’t care if they thought Yohji was the mastermind behind the missing girls… it wasn’t like the county-mounties would ever have a chance at catching Hyakuhei anyway. Kotaro pulled at the collar of the shirt he’d been given by the chief detective and sighed in relief when

Chapter 16 Shinbe’s eyes glowed a wild amethyst as he stared across the room at one of his best friends who he hadn’t seen in over a thousand years. The missing years collapsed… making two life times’ blend into one. Remembering Kamui brought it all together… even his own death at the hands of Hyakuhei. He had crossed the ocean to try to throw off his scent, but the distance had not been far enough… it had only bought him a little over a year. Afraid to dip into that memory too closely, Shinbe shook the disturbing memory away. He pulled the collar of his shirt to the side showing Kamui the unusual birthmark in the shape of a feather. “It seems even the heart of time couldn’t separate us,” the words left Shinbe’s lips in a mere whisper. Kamui’s eyes widened a fraction wondering just how many past lives Shinbe remembered. Deciding not to even ask, he simply nodded in response. “Some things should not be forgotten… not by any of the guardians.” For the second time in over

Chapter 18 Kyoko shivered while she ran for all she was worth. She could still hear Kyou’s angry scream of her name echoing not only in her head but through the deserted city streets as well. Something must have stopped him from following her and whatever it was… she was thankful for the help. She could understand now why he was so furious with her. It was her fault Toya had died in the past… and why Hyakuhei was still alive and roaming the earth, tainting it with his darkness. But damn it, she hadn’t done anything in this lifetime yet. Now here Kyou was… all mad because of something that happened before she was even born and had no control over this time around. But now she was taking control and was bound and determined to make things right. The one thing she was sure of was that the last thing she wanted to do was be caught by him again, at least not while he was so angry. Deep down she was actually afraid he would try to stop her, make her promise the way she had promised Ko

Chapter 20 Yohji had hovered above it all in a daze… watching Kyoko. His body was reacting strangely to her. He could feel the man at the edge of the brawl trying to provoke his movements but he wasn’t in the mood to do someone else’s bidding. He had power now and didn’t plan on playing by anyone’s rules except his own. The dark voice in his head wanted Kyoko but the urge to drain her dry was getting stronger and drowning the voice out. The idea of drinking her blood was exciting, making his body hard and ready. He would take her innocence then bury his fangs into her beautiful neck just as her orgasm hit its peak. He wouldn’t be interested in her much after that… if she survived. When he was done with her, she’d be nothing but a shell, not worth his time. That would show up the fucking security guard and his bad boy wannabe looks. And Toya? Oh Toya didn’t even know what was coming his way… Yohji was already planning on how to kill him without ending the fun too quickly. His
