Predator & Prey

I'm not mad anymore Raven; I'm glad that we met, and I forgive you for killing my father. Please honor my last request. I want to die human. Do you hear me? I don't want to go to ash like the rest of them. Do you understand? She couldn't stop the tears from falling, and wasn't complaining about her sudden outburst of sentiment either. Crying was one of the things that made her inexplicably human. A vampire would not cry, so she didn't expect that Raven would. She could see the struggle in his eyes.Raven watched outside of his body as his past self stabbed the sword through, sawing easily through several vital organs until the bloody edge protruded from her back and she collapsed against his chest.I love you, Alain. She whispered, while the sunlight blazed over them both threateningly. Raven already knew what had happened next. He hugged Dara close, and cried, fat tears dropping down on Dara's flush cheeks.***As Raven faces Rastase in a final battle to prevent the apocalypse, the Nexus has fallen, Nightshade Posse is in hiding and the Skin-Walkers seek revenge. A bloodbath is on the horizon, as Hunted Blood comes to its final conclusion.
