EXCERPT FROM CHAPTER ONE

JUDGEMENT OF SOULS 3: The Kiss at Dawn

It was her coming of age.
 
Then she clenched her hands, her knuckles whitened and her smile faded as she remembered the attack on the Elysium, her parents’ banishment from their home and betrayal by the one person she thought she could trust; all those memories, a lifetime away, but still fresh in her mind. There was only one person to blame: a man who had broken her heart and condemned her and her parents to shame. Shaking his image from her mind, she recalled the night she convinced her parents they should sleep until she could redeem their souls from the darkness and re-install them back into the centre of the Elysium. As they lay together, she kissed them, covered their coffin with a slab of stone and left them to the darkness.
