《My Vampire (Book Three)》Chapter 30
Advertisement
The rain is beginning to slow down now, there's a cool breeze that rustles the trees around us into my favorite symphony of sounds from the forest. It's not a perfect day but I'm sure she would have liked it no matter what. I set the shovel down and feel a cold hand entwine their fingers with my own.
I look back at Ada and smile when she stands closer to my side and we look down at my mother's grave.
"She would have liked it here. Buried next my father and my brothers." I say and look down at the small mound of dirt.
"She would have loved it Isaac." Ada squeezes my hand gently and I nod my head. It's been four days filled with burials of all the wolves we've lost including the proper burials of the hybrids done by their families. Desiderius was left by the decision of both Ada and Selene to burn in the sun. Meanwhile Io was burned by her daughter and Gabriel deep into the forest and her ashes reshaped into a necklace now worn by Selene. Also as a sort of gift, Selene restored his immortality in order to continue to protect the pack.
When I first woke up after the fight I wasn't mad at Ada for turning me into a hybrid. I was just happy that she loved me again, that she was okay. But then the reality of our situation began to hit me, I was immortal. I would watch my friends grow old and die. I would watch their children have children of their own and die. Meanwhile I would remain the same, the last of my name, I would never have children and I would never grow old.
Ada squeezes my hand again and I turn and face her. I look into her beautiful green eyes and she slowly smiles making my heart flutter and I place a gentle kiss on her forehead. For the next eternity I wouldn't mind missing out on all of that, because then I would have lost Ada. And there was nothing I wanted more than to spend forever with her.

"We're the same now. You could beat me in a fight if you wanted to." She teases and I chuckle and hold her tight.
"I could beat you in a fight no matter what." I say and she growls playfully and tries to escape but I hold her tight.
"I might even be stronger than you now." I tease and she laughs and wiggles her way out of my arms and begins running through the woods. I look down at my mother's grave and smile sadly down at her.
"I'll visit soon mom." I say and run after Ada. My vision is much better at night now and I'm definitely way faster than I ever was. I find Ada immediately, I'll never lose her scent again. She's leaning against a tree and biting her lip and giggling as she watches me walk towards her and run my fingers down her arms.
"Don't run away from me." I say and kiss her lips.
"I'll never leave. You're stuck with me forever." She smiles and I smile back.
"And where are we going to spend forever?" I ask raising an eyebrow and she shrugs wrapping her arms around my waist.
"Anywhere. Paris. Egypt. Milan. I want you to see everything." She says placing her hand on my cheek.
"Then we'll see everything." I smile kissing her again and feeling like the luckiest man alive.

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!
