A Light In The Heart Of Darkness/Amy Blankenship
Chapter 21 Ignoring the danger, Suki ran toward the block while dodging vampires. She stopped when Shinbe slowly stumbled from the dust cloud waving his hand in front of him and shaking his head to get the earth from his hair. His wings had vanished and he smiled halfheartedly at Suki. “That hurt,” he stated blandly. Suki ran up to him and her open palm connected with his cheek. “Don’t ever do that again Shinbe,” She yelled before wrapping her arms around him and sobbing into his chest. Shinbe beamed happily, “My dear Suki, does this mean you will be the mother of my children?” “Don’t ever do that again,” Suki repeated and hugged him tighter. “You have to actually be alive to father them.” She leaned back just enough to weakly hit him in the chest. “Dummy.” “I guess we can take that as an affirmative,” Kamui said then leaned over toward Kyou’s ear. “Welcome back,” he whispered. Kyou remained silent and stared at Kyoko still within the Lycan’s arms. He understood what

Chapter 22 Hyakuhei sighed contentedly feeling her power flow within him. He withdrew his fangs and inhaled loudly, letting his head tilt back. He looked up at the stars and gazed as if seeing them for the first time. The energy suddenly spiked and he heard the back of his shirt ripping open. Black feathers fluttered around him and he saw a magnificent pair of black wings coil around them. Looking down at the silent girl, he turned her in his arms and held her close. His ruby eyes swept over her face in a way a lover caresses another. He could hear her heart beat slowing and knew he had almost taken her too far. He’d promised her she would not escape him in death again… a promise he intended to keep. The muscles in his jaws tensed as he bit his tongue hard… drawing his life’s blood. His lips descended on hers, forcing them open for a deep kiss… the kiss of darkness. Toya watched Hyakuhei remove his fangs and his eyes narrowed when the black wings emerged from his back. The da

Chapter 23 Toya had been sluggish to move when the light temporarily blinded him. As it faded, he had to look twice to make sure what he was seeing was real. Hyakuhei had turned to stone with his hands cupped around the crystal in the maiden’s hands. He stumbled to his feet and reached Kyoko’s side in record time when he saw her fingers reaching out to touch Hyakuhei’s still form. He didn’t give a damn if the bastard was a statue now, he didn’t want any part of her touching him. She was almost touching his cheek when Toya reached her and took hold of her wrist. “No,” he whispered with forced calm. Kyoko cried out in surprise when the hand on her wrist pulled her back then turned her so fast it made her head spin. She looked up into Toya’s worried golden gaze with curiosity, wondering why he’d pulled her away. “Don’t Kyoko… I don’t want you touching him,” Toya answered her unasked question. He felt his heart soar with relief now that she was in his arms… it was finally over.

Chapter 24 Kyoko sniffled when she heard someone come in and quickly wiped the tears away thinking it was Toya. She stood at the foot of her bed and turned her back to the door trying to hide the fact that she had been crying. Her shoulders hunched up a bit when the bedroom door opened and her visitor didn’t say anything. “Please just go. I’m tired and want to rest,” She said softly cursing the fact that her voice betrayed the tears. Kotaro had made his way to the back of the apartment and saw the light shining under Kyoko’s bedroom door. Slowly opening it, he saw her beautiful form standing in front of her bed with her back to him. At her whispered words he stood in anguished silence feeling like his heart was spilling on the floor. She was dismissing him not even wanting to hear what he had to say. He growled deep in his chest and closed the distance between them. Kyoko heard the growl and shivered… that wasn’t Toya. She whirled around, her nightgown flaring slightly aro

A Light In The Heart Of Darkness/Amy Blankenship
Epilogue Somewhere across The Heart of Time, a young girl with auburn hair and emerald eyes ran through the darkness. Her breath was burning in her lungs as she tried to outrun her pursuers. She knew if she faltered, the demons would catch and possibly kill her. She had watched in horror from her hiding place at the edge of the forest while the rest of her village had been destroyed and as far as she knew… she was the only survivor. She could still smell the smoke of the burning homes floating on the breeze and it sickened her. Hope blossomed in her chest when she saw a rock formation up ahead with a small opening that looked just big enough for her to slip through. Her hands, arms, and legs were scraped as she crawled through the jagged opening, praying she would be safe enough to hide till dawn. The demons would disappear at dawn… that was the way it was. She couldn’t run anymore and tried to slow her breathing so she wouldn’t be detected. Hearing footsteps, she crawled dee
