Ok, so this is my first fanfic so bear with me. I'm picking up right where Awakened left off. This first chapter is from Neferet's Vessel, Aurox's, point of view. In case you've forgotten, Aurox has Heath's soul inside of him. So go ahead and enjoy.
Chapter 1:
Aurox
Aurox leaned against the rail of the penthouse's balcony. The full moon shone brightly over his head as he gazed silently over Tulsa's skyline. There was a slight breeze which blew his blond hair away from his shoulders. It chilled the part of his arms that weren't covered by his shirt and raised small goose bumps down their length.
He sighed and turned and walked back inside the penthouse. Aurox paced quietly around the main room. He wished to go out so he wouldn't be stuck alone with nothing to do. But he was a Vessel, he had to obey orders.
Aurox let his mind wander back to just over six hours ago.
"Stay here while I attend to the duties at the House of Night. You are not to be noticed. The time is not right for me to reveal your existence."
The Tsi Sgli was powerful; he had sensed that from the moment of his creation the night before. Being a creature born of Darkness himself, Aurox had seen Darkness clinging to her and the sheer thickness of it. It awed him that she reveled in Darkness, being that she was a High Priestess of Nyx, leader of the forces of Light. And yet, he was disgusted by the way Darkness crawled over her skin and clung to her like a close fitting gown. Simple emotions for a simple creature born of blood and evil.
But his emotions conflicted with each other and his own being. Aurox didn't understand it at all. He was born of Darkness, made to perform the evil deeds of his Queen.
Then why was he repulsed by what created him?
I know, first chapter was short. Don't worry the others will be longer. This is more of a preface really. Please review, I want to hear your opinions and suggestions. I have Anoymous reviews on so for those who want to review that don't have a fanfiction may. I don't have PM, but you can post questions in the review as well and I'll answer them in Author's Notes or they'll be answered in another chapter.
