There are rules to being a soul seductor. Take more than you give. Aim for purity. Seduce and vacate. Do not fail. And most importantly, do not fall in love. No one knows what happens when you break them because no one’s ever tried. HAWKE I love my life. Hate the hand I’ve been dealt but love the power I hold. Unfortunately power comes with a price. The only family we know are the ones who are just like us - the men who backed away from the light and answered to the devil’s calling. I’m different from most. I wasn’t given a choice. Someone else chose for me. Still, it’s the only hand I have - the only cards I can lay on the table. I’m content with being great; content with having a past that’s worse than my future. Everything was okay. Everything was just fucking fine. But then Zorn had to disappear and fuck all that up. I don’t have a past that consumes me. I know no life better than the one I live now. He did. He chased it. Now, I’m chasing him. And in the process, I’m breaking every damn rule a soul seductor abides by including falling for her. LORELEI My sister’s a nut job. My dad’s two shades away from dead. And then there’s me. Retired normal person, aspiring criminal. I’m doing what criminals do- running for my life. Except it’s not the law I’m running from. I messed with the wrong guy, bought a debt I couldn’t repay. He won’t stop until he finds me and I won’t stop running until I get caught. You’d think that would be enough to make me want to back into a safe corner. No! My dad’s on his deathbed and it’ll take a great deal of money to buy him a decent life. So I run from one criminal into the arms of another. In one night, I’ve had a gun pointed at my head, stolen two cars, watched a man have brains blown over a poker table and to top it all off, I kissed a psychopath. Now the psycho wants more. He won’t stop until he gets more and I’m at the opposite end of the spectrum. But there’s one huge problem: the ‘more’ he’s looking for isn’t a ‘more’ I have to give.
