Vassago is a Seeker haunted by his dark soul, making him dangerous and mysterious to everyone around him—except Lore. A Goddess who safeguards an ancient curse. Lore is a goddess who wards an ancient curse. She and Vassago have shared a connection for centuries, but he has always chosen his oaths to the Circles above all else, especially her. Hope Annandale barely managed to survive the Circles, only to end up back at Shadowbrook—alone and afraid—with no memory of the Circles, or Stone. With Hope safe, Stone can take his rightful place by his father’s side, as Prince Stolas. Torn between duty and love, Vassago and Stone will be forced to decide where their loyalties lie, and what they will fight for—love or honor.

Vassago is the second novel in the Dark Soul series and is a riveting tale of passion, danger, and forbidden love. Intended for mature readers.

Download or read book Romeo Spikes written by Joanne Reay and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-08-14 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working the Homicide squad, Alexis Bianco believes she’s seen every way a life can be taken. Then she meets the mysterious Lola and finds out she’s wrong. More weapon than woman, Lola pursues a predator with a method of murder like no other. The Tormenta. If you think you’ve never encountered Tormenta, think again. You’re friends with one. Have worked for one. Maybe even fallen in love with one. They walk amongst us—looking like us, talking like us. Coercing our subconscious with their actions. Like the long-legged beauty who seduces the goofy geek only to break his heart, causing him to break his own neck in a noose. Or the rock star whose every song celebrates self-harm, inspiring his devoted fans to press knives to their own throats. The pusher who urges the addict toward one more hit, bringing him a high from which he’ll never come down. The tyrannical boss, crushing an assistant’s spirit until a bridge jump brings her low. We call it a suicide. Tormenta call it a score, their demonic powers allowing them to siphon off the unspent life span of those who harm themselves. To Bianco, being a cop is about right and wrong. Working with Lola is about this world and the next . . . and maybe the one after that. Because everything is about to change. The coming of a mighty Tormenta is prophesied, a dark messiah known as the Mosca. To stop him, Bianco and Lola must fight their way through a cryptic web of secret societies and powerful legends and crack an ancient code that holds the only answer to the Mosca’s defeat. If this miscreant rises before they can unmask him, darkness will reign and mankind will fall in a storm of suicides. Nobody’s safe. Everyone’s a threat. *** TORMENTA: THE FACTS Walking amongst us—looking, sounding, and acting just like us—is a type of demon called Tormenta. And, as demons go, they are particularly . . . fiendish. *** A hand locked hard around her neck and the muzzle of her own Magnum, impossibly pulled from its holster, twitched an inch from her chin. “Do I have your attention, Detective?” Alexis Bianco found herself staring at a swath of cropped blond hair, the only feature of her assailant visible in the darkness. She mustered a nod. “Then listen good.” Lola’s voice was no more than a whisper but it seemed twisted tight, sinking like a needle into her ear. “Humans are born with a predetermined life span, an allotted number of years to live. Some consume their spans and pass away. Some have their spans prematurely snatched from them by murder or mishap. But some surrender their lives by choice. Humans call it suicide. Tormenta call it opportunity. From their method comes their name. They torment their human prey into giving up their lives.” Bianco swallowed, attempted to speak, but no words came. She licked her lips, easing a path, and tried again. “You—you say these Tormenta walk amongst us . . . in plain sight.” “They are everywhere.” “I’ve never seen one.” “Weren’t you listening?”

Download or read book Salon de l Aristocratie Infernal written by Panik Bedlam and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-03-19 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion has always been a playground of Ritual Theater, and often the mythic pageants of old are rife with secret knowledge held by spirits. Since the awkward transition between religion and science began centuries ago, much of the wisdom that brings change and progress has been labeled evil and infernal, to be handled with great caution. Although powerful and dangerous, sometimes it is only a genial and politic attitude that is needed to keep these devils in check. Artist, Chaos Witch, and Rogue SubGenius, Rev. Panik EVlynn Bedlam uses their ability at illustration & magik to create an intense yet whimsical and sometimes darkly humorous world of characters inspired by ancient esoteric concepts, brought to life in contemporary forms. Using a style the artist describes as "Pop Comic Surrealism," they have created a post-modern spiritual characterization of complex and severe concepts that faced our ancestors and who continue to challenge us in new and more complex forms every day.
