I am a writer at heart. Here are some of my favorite moments from some of my work… Just click the name to view the work as a whole (Or what I have done of it thus far... lol)
******************************************************************************************************************
For the first time in a long time, I was ashamed of myself, of what I was, of what I was capable of doing. The dull aching pain in my chest, where my heart would have been beating, made me feel completely hopeless. It was like I was standing on that cliff, as I had all those centuries ago, just wanting death. Even now, I am still a monster, the one thing that my father and than myself despised the most. I am a killer and it was something I had grappled with for a long time.

I looked down at Natasha again. Here was this single human that filled the final empty space in my long dead heart. I had tried to keep my distance from her, and while she may not know how much she means to me, no amount of strength I had would ever keep me away anymore.

Scanning the room once more, her eyes quickly settled on the man who had just entered the ballroom. He stood casually at the top of the stairs waiting to be announced, with an elderly woman on his arm – his mother or aunt mayhap. The air was quickly sucked out of Lilly’s lungs and the loud din of the ballroom seemed to die down. All eyes were on the man on the stairs.
He was tall and his elegant black evening jacket stretched against his broad shoulders. Wrapped around his narrow waist was a sash of red, blue, and white, which stood out against the black of his suit. There was a dangerous air about him, accented by the hard square lines of his jaw and the steel blue of his eyes. His jet black hair was slicked back and the ends curled around his ears.

EMILY
Then let it! I would rather die than lay beneath that man and call him my husband.
ANNA
You know as well as I that he will stop at nothing to have you.
EMILY
(slides down the pillar)
Than he will have me dead! I will not marry a man I do not love.
ANNA
(approaches EMILY and knees down in front of her)
You will grow to love him.
EMILY
(snaps her head up, glaring at ANNA)
Never. I will never love another knowing that in my heart, my love lives.
ANNA
(frustrated)
He is dead, Emily. We both saw it with our own eyes, nothing is going to bring him back.
EMILY
I don’t believe it! I cannot believe it!
(The Contract, Act I Scene One)
