Longche willed himself to change into his true vampire form. As the helpless vampire watched the transformation, it started screaming. It was still screaming when Longche's rows of razor-sharp teeth sank into its throat. It had been thousands of years since he had drunk the blood of vampires. With each creature he consumed, he could feel himself growing stronger.Growing stronger - and growing closer to the Dark Mother, who was waiting to exact a terrible revenge upon him.

As the helpless vampire watched the transformation, it started screaming. It was still screaming when his rows of razor sharp teeth sank into its throat.

He howled in despair as his body was enveloped by a terrifying and sickening darkness.

He had existed for a long time and was fluent in many languages - most of them_dead ones.

She grabbed his hair and pulled his mouth tighter against her lips. She wanted to possess and devour him.

Lilith came to Longinus in the night, as she often did, and the darkness of the cave was filled with the lustful sounds of their passionate couplings. Afterwards, as he lay back with his eyes closed, she ran her cool fingers playfully across his chest and whispered honeyed words in his ear.

Time after time, they brought each other to new heights of ecstasy, until finally, they lay spent in each others arms in the quiet peace and contentment that only lovers know.

Patience is hard when your very soul cries for freedom.

With a savage grin, he let out an inhuman roar of bloodlust and threw himself into an unholy orgy of blood, fangs, claws, and death.

She was Lilith, First Wife of Adam, Queen of the Night, Mother of Demons, Stealer of Children, and he was her Revenant - her undead warrior. And she would use him, and the power of his spear, to destroy her enemies and punish her wayward children.,

As the High Priestess looked down upon the child, she was struck by her holy perfection. She was a tiny person in miniature, and her beautiful eyes, little hands, and long eyelashes were sublime.

Welcome to Irkalla, the Land of the Dead,_ the woman said. __ am Ereshkigal, Queen of the Underworld.

He knew...there was no redemption for the damned.

Longinus was suddenly aware of her biting his neck, and he experienced the agony and the ecstasy of her dark kiss.

No gods or demons would stop him in his quest of being reunited with her.

But he also knew this centurion, this man of honour, would change her_by giving her love_and love was the most powerful force in the universe.

The moonlight covered the tombstones with an ethereal glow, and the statues above the tombs stood like silent guards waiting for something to happen.

Lilith opened the shutters and allowed herself to bathe in the bright moonlight, as it shone across the Highland Glen.
