In a time when inter relations were unheard of, a girl fell in love with a boy.

Their story spans over decades. What they endured for loving each other, the obstacles they had to face, because it wasn’t legal to love outside your race.

Nichole tells the story of her childhood. The abuse she endured, even violence that was inflicted upon her. The heart choses. That was her motto. She tells her tale in graphic detail.

Zulu-land and all its splendour is brought to life. The young warrior who had saved her life, as a child, was her best friend. As time passed, that friendship evolved into something deeper.

Something forbidden. Nevertheless, the heart choses.

The chief that fell in love with a lady. He was a man with roots that dated back to King Shaka himself.

Not time, nor threats of being imprisoned could stunt this love, these two people had for each other.

Times was on their side, but not all the time. When freedom did come, they had no idea what to do with the concept. Their love was timeless.

Ian and Breno's lives are intertwined like no two people's ever could be. Ian, gentle, kind and so insecure. He tries so hard to be perfect, yet he lives his life in the shadow of something bigger than himself, something he cannot define. Something that terrifies him. Breno uses his charm and good looks to get what he wants. Self assured, charming and deadly, his veneer dissipates and his true nature is revealed when he meets Ian. In a macabre dance of death, one will triumph over the other. The aftermath of who survives will be felt forever.

INTRODUCTION

“Yes, yes, oh hell yes”, exclaimed Shona Radcliff, Mother of Shane Radcliff, one of the chosen five.

Abrux, had a deep furrow on his forehead. How easily are humans pleased, he thought, I offer her two grand to “off” someone and she has a mini-orgasm. Clay-puppet’s the lot of them. I handed the lovely lady her money and the dagger, no butler to do it this time round. He is pushing daisies, poor sod. There is a new trapper in town, and I need him gone as in yesterday. His name is Hunter, can you bloody believe it, of all the names in heaven, hell and earth, this dude is literally named Hunter, and brother let me tell you, the name suits him like a glove.

Hunter de Burg, yeah, is a reformed Fallen, he stands over seven ft tall, and is built like an effing mountain, and fast, he is always one step ahead of me, so now we use the greatest tool in creation, woman. Ask Adam and Samson how that turned out for them, so back to sweet Shona. All she has to do is bat her lovely eye lashes, at this walking rock, drug him and plunge the dagger into his heart, simple? Yeah, I thought so too.

Hunter sat on top of a hill overlooking what used to be the Lane-vineyards. What used to be is no more. I have watched over Tyler Lane, the son of Thomas Lane, for six years, as young as he is, I can feel his inner struggle, read his thoughts, hear him cry for a Father he never knew. He openly despises Abrux, he defies his every command. The words, “you are not my Father”, has been heard a few times now, even though Thomas was murdered before was even a possibility, he sleeps with an old photo of Thomas under his pillow.

I watch over the boy at night. The demons trouble him, and no, not the childhood imaginary kind, real bad ass, horrible creatures. They know Tyler is the sixth, the last key to let Azazel free. They hound him to do it, but as the saying goes, blood is thicker than water. I know Tyler has this constant inner struggle between good and bad. I think I might know the man that can free this scarlet eyed child, from his hell on earth. I will have to call in a favour, or a thousand, but I need Michaelus free, to help this boy. Abrux is mine.

The chosen five, Shane, Rodger, Dennis, Richard, now here is a storm trooper, and Liam are ready. It is Tyler that is hell bent, no pun intended, on being obstinate. The five are now between the ages of seven and eight, they are ready. Dear Lou is still at the diner, and living in her rat hole apartment and dumb to boot. Thomas and Samuel are still in the Golden City, buy I am here now, it’s Hunter time.

I tucked Tyler in, he is now aware of me, but he has not spoken to me as yet. He doesn’t know if he can trust me. I kissed his forehead, I am sure that is something Thomas would have done if he was here. I need to go, the time has come, to speak to the Big Guy, no not God, my friend, Bryan. He is as old as the earth, or that is how it seems to me, he has no wings, nor does he have red eyes, but he has connections, and a direct line to heaven, toll free. I need a permission slip, if I am going to get Michaelus out of Purgatory. So I drove over to Bryan, I swear the dude gets older every time I see him, but I can’t ask him what he is. One day, for now I am calling in a favour.

It took two weeks, do you know how long two weeks are when you have to wait? And I had my answer, and my permission slip. I have never been to Purgatory, I can’t imagine it’s a place one would want to go. So I put on my big boy pants, the brown ones. And headed out. What I saw, might be worse than hell.

Introduction

“Tu verus mundi Lucifer”

(You are the true light bringer to the world)

If this statement had any truth to it, Abigail Mary Marshall would not be fleeing for her life. He first appeared to her on her eighteen’s birthday, at first glance, Abigail, though he might just a party-crasher. The second he prophesied over her future, she knew he was no ordinary man. The words he spoke were too astonishing, annually on her birthday, he would appear, and utter the same words to her. The so called prophesy was to come true, when she turned twenty-five, so Abigail ran, she moved away from her home town, and prayed Michaelus would protect her. That is the thing with wishes and prayers, they come true in their own time or not at all.

Michaelus gave her another option, one she would never consider, he was her best friend, her guardian Angel, whether he accepted the title or not. Michaelus, as Abigail named him, was one of the Fallen, he had spent thousands of years, trying to redeem himself, he sought a path back to Heaven, and she would not stand in his way, he made a choice he regretted, and paid for that choice. The path to heaven is not paved in glory, no, it is paved in blood, sweat and tears. Whether the so called Prophet, was a demon, or the devil himself, remained a secret, Michaelus, would stay mute on the subject, he hoped free will and her faith would save her. Michaelus had fought him, numerous times, but once the words were spoken, it was set in stone. Abigail had turned twenty-five less than a month ago, and is the newest resident to the historical town of Deadwood.

Abigail narrates her life story, through her eyes, her faith and her friendship with Michaelus, and her fear of the man. He changed his appearance every time he would manifest, and in the times he did, she was too frightened to tell anyone, least of all her parents, devoted Catholics, they were good people, but Abigail’s life was not ordinary, and the prophesy, was nowhere near ordinary, the only friend she had was Michaelus, and he had  two objectives in life, one to save her, and give up his chance of ever going home, or to turn his back on Abigail, and pray that his Creator, his Father would forgive him.
