I completely forgot to share our teaser on Thursday, so for the last teaser of Pride Month, here’s Kara being “very proud of herself” …instead of preparing for an apocalypse. 😂
Rose gave her a skeptical look. “You haven’t had time to warn them that they’re all going to die, but you’ve had time to tell them I’m your new girlfriend?”
Kara grinned, her light blue eyes sparkling. “I’m very proud of myself.”
Rose tilted her head, flashing a sassy smile at her. “Aren’t you always?”
“Uhh, hello?!” the vampire interrupted. “You said the world is ending?!”
“I know,” Kara sighed. “And I have no right to ask you to do it again.”
Rose turned toward Kara, studying her with a frown. “Ask me, anyway.”
Kara’s light blue gaze shifted up, meeting Rose’s. “What?”
Rose stepped closer. She reached up, brushing her fingertips over Kara’s face. She watched as Kara’s eyes closed, as she leaned forward. “Ask me, anyway,” Rose repeated. She tilted her face, her lips brushing Kara’s. “Because I’ll say yes.”
Her voice was barely a whisper, now. “I’ll always say yes.”
For the second Teaser Day of Pride Month, here’s Rose and Kara having a Totally Normal™️ bedtime dispute. 😅
“You’re not keeping a battle-axe in the bed that we share.”
Kara stepped closer, before taking another sip of her drink. “Why not?”
Rose lifted both eyebrows, unable to hide her smile. “Because it’s sharp!”
Kara leaned closer. “So are you,” she said, tapping Rose’s chest with the bottom of her glass. Her lips curved into a smile. “But I still keep you in my bed.”
Rose opened her mouth and closed it again, blushing at the implications. Finally, she managed, “Mental sharpness doesn’t hack people’s heads off, Kara.”
Always relevant, I think, but definitely right now. ❤️
“Hatred doesn’t win with numbers or weapons. It wins with silence. It wins when people sweep it under the rug or try to justify it. It wins when people defend the indefensible. It wins when we’re too scared or too apathetic to fight back. And I won’t let it win. Not today. Not ever.”
I meant to post this one last night, but here’s Rose being secretly sappy. 💙 Happy (belated) Teaser Day! 💙
But the feeling in her chest, now? The warmth and comfort and security that settled inside of her? The desire to go nowhere else but here? Was that home?
Because if it was, then maybe this was the closest Rose had ever gotten.
Hey, guys. I hope you’re all doing well and staying safe. 💛 My internet’s been down a lot lately, so I’m a little behind on our weekly teasers. But here’s the one for this past Thursday! 💛
Rose turned to the princess. “And what’s wrong with who I’m dating?”
The princess started to laugh—until she noticed Rose’s glare. She cleared her throat. “Oh, you’re…serious,” she mumbled, her eyes wide. She set her glass on the table and straightened. “Well,” she said nervously, “you must know…Kara Unnarsdóttir has quite the reputation. She’s defeated entire armies by herself, assassinated world leaders, seduced queens and conquered their kingdoms…”
Rose shrugged. “People are allowed to have hobbies.”
P.S. — A small request for anyone who’s already finished The Reign of Darkness: It doesn’t appear to have any reviews on Amazon yet. So, if you enjoyed it and don’t mind leaving a review there, I’d be super, super, super grateful. 💛 Regardless, though, thank you so much for reading! Love you guys! 💛💛💛💛
And a massive thank you to those of you who have left reviews elsewhere! 💛💛💛💛
If you’re one my of paperback readers, they have the paperback up on Amazon, now. ❤️ (It went up yesterday, I think?) They don’t have it linked to the Kindle version yet, so I’ll include both links. ❤️
Powerful vampire, Rose Foster, and her girlfriend, Kara Unnarsdóttir, take refuge in a hidden kingdom of vampires, as war breaks out between vampires and humans. Rose is shocked to find that even though she doesn’t know them, the vampires of this kingdom know her. Not only that, but they’re prepared to follow her into battle. Yet, they refuse to tell her why.
World war rages on in their absence, threatening the extinction of both species. Rose soon realizes that, even though she doesn’t want power, if she wants to prevent genocide, she’ll have to take her place as a Commander of Power.
But when Kara uncovers a terrifying piece of information about Rose, she must decide, once and for all, if her loyalty to the woman she loves is strong enough to withstand even the end of the world. Or if it’s time to do what she does best: betrayal.
AHHHH, it’s (finally) up! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 (Now, pardon me while I go panic and cry for like three years. 😭)

In this final installment of the Creatures of Darkness series, the Eklektos will either save the world or destroy it.
The Reign of Darkness, the fourth and final book of the Creatures of Darkness Series, will be released on March 3, 2020! 🧛♀️🌈 So…just a little over two weeks from now! 🖤
I’ve been reluctant to post a release date because, between life events and rewrites, it can get really unpredictable. This last year (or so) has been a tough one, and my writing time has been more limited than ever. And on top of that, each time I would get close to finishing, I would decide to rewrite it all over again. 😅
My anxiety is partly to blame for that. This is the final book of the series, after all. I want it to be perfect (or as perfect as possible, anyway). I’ve been dreaming up this book for so long (since I started the series), and I want it to be the satisfying, worthy conclusion that I’ve always hoped it would be. 🖤
Your support of this series—and of Rose and Kara—has meant the world to me, and I will never be able to thank you enough for it. 🖤 But I hope I can at least give you a satisfying conclusion to the series—and one that was worth the wait. 🖤
Two more weeks! 🖤
P.S. — I’m extremely sleep-deprived, so if this sounds a little sappy and rambly, that’s probably why. 😅
