The Diamond

Death walks alongside me,

But the reaper is no match for me.

I’m trapped in a world full of monsters dressed as men, and those who aren’t as they seem.

They won’t keep me forever.

I no longer recognize the person I’ve become,

And I’m fighting to find my way back to the beast who hunts me in the night.

Warning: This is the second and final installment to the Duet. You must read Haunting Adeline first.

They call me a diamond,

But they’ve only created an angel of death.

The Hunter

I was born a predator,

With ruthlessness ingrained in my bones.

When what’s mine is stolen from me in the night,

Like a diamond hidden within a fortress,

I find that I can no longer contain the beast.

Blood will paint the ground as I tear apart this world to find her.

And bring her back to where she belongs.

No one will escape my wrath,

Especially not those who have betrayed me.
