Eternal Curse: Battleground 8.2 (wip)

For years, Felix and the demon battled one another, with the demon appearing in a new host body each time. The Demon would come in and out of Felix’s life just to bait him and annoy him. When Felix’s wife’s mortality had reached its end during the final days of the sixteenth century, it was that same demon that came to his side for comfort. The demon preached to Felix about the frailty and weakness of humans, and then spoke of the corrupted grandeur of an eternal life built on the pursuit of power. Felix had no idea of his true power and potential, and thus became a puppet to this villainous possessor. With the demon’s guidance and directive, Felix set out to destroy all others like him, so no one would remain to protect the humans he now looked down upon.

Eternal Curse: Giovanni’s Angel chapter 7.3 (wip)

Mira sprang up from her bed, ran out of her room, and then down the hall and onto the deck, leaving behind her robe and forgetting to close all the doors behind her. Looking down at the garden below, Mira saw it again showered in the moonlight. It was grand, white, and bright. Its wings stretched out wide as it faced the night sky getting ready to take off. The great eagle ascended into the sky and soared around the estate two times, before floating off into the distance with what seemed like great urgency. Mira blinked her eyes as she watched the image disappear over the horizon. Once it was gone, she rushed back to her room and tightly tucked herself under her covers, feeling anxious and confused. Had she received a sign or was she simply dreaming of something magical?

Eternal Curse: Battleground 8.1 (wip)

I was amazed by Mom’s boldness; she was such a natural leader, like Fred. Seeing those two together made me feel safe somehow; knowing they were the good guys made me feel that all the fighting was worth it. I just knew that all the battles would come to an end one day, and all the conflicts would be resolved. Fred explained that he’d been seeking out a special and rear kind of half-breed with powers and capabilities far beyond that of the average. He said he knew of only two other such types and that they were called the Descendants.
