There were cracks. The house fractured and creaked under the strain of their growing family. A bed should offer comfort with a thick quilt embroidered with silk.

Charlotte: Fracturing
Winterfest cried upon its eve. A fine layer of white blonde hair adorned the blue-eyed boy. Charlotte felt the cold as the baby was born.

Charlotte: Cracks
Blood shared and bound them as relatives, as siblings. Daciana held tears, her words bitter and cruel, as the boy ran to join their play. She stepped between him and Luliana.

Charlotte: …Natural Instincts?
Part Two The tale of “With Great Power…” was one every occult understood, none more so than vampires. Levelling up their abilities in one direction creates a weakness in another.

He praised Charlotte andContinue reading “Charlotte: Season of The Vampire”

It surprised her, she preferred comforting Cornelius’s bad dreams.Continue reading “Charlotte: Lucky Ones”
Charlotte: Cornelius Vatore-Grace
Charlotte knew meeting her siblings would be problematic. She never expected open arms, but her brother’s hostility surprised her. The years had failed to soften the heartache caused by her disappearance. Patrick spoke warm and loving in his affection for the girls. He offered the family life Charlotte was unable. She was grateful, but theContinue reading “Charlotte: Cornelius Vatore-Grace”
Charlotte: Guilty Drinker
In the years since she left Newcrest, Charlotte had died. Her resurrection remained a guarded secret. She began learning what she could from Caleb and his books.
