In case you missed it, you can catch up on the Darkborn Saga (or, what I've written so far) here.

Here is the first "chapter" in Episode 3

As much as I love building the world and setting up the characters, I really wish we could jump to where I see all of this going. That's one of the hardest aspects about writing. I always want to "skip to the good stuff," but it wouldn't be the "good stuff" without the context and build-up, right?

Anyway, I hope you enjoy!

Let me know what you think so far in the comments. :)

Okay, so if you're new to the world of my Viking Vampires, here's what you need to know:

ABOUT THE SERIES:

Viking lore meets vampire legend in this dark, gritty, and seductive saga.

Pagans are being wiped from history by southern invaders. Desperate to save her life and people, Hel, goddess of the Underworld, creates an immortal army of warriors unlike anything the legends have ever seen.

Sylas, Arless, Lucian, and Thorne lost everything the night of the fire, including their honor, and they will stop at nothing to right the wrongs done to them and their families. Even if that means they must thrive in the darkness, no longer human, sacrificing their very humanity for their cause.

But as the Darkborn rise from the ash and shadows of their land, wreaking havoc on those who have wronged them, they find immortality comes at a cost. 

Each of them must fight their inner demons amidst the chaos of bloodshed, passion, and the wreckage borne of their vengeance.

Eventually, the chapters will be for paid members only, but for now, they are open for all to read. I'm still exploring the world, so you're welcome to join me. :)

Currently, I'm offering Episode 0 as an origin story for early readers when they sign up for my newsletter (and in here for Followers). So, if you see this cover, that's what it is:

Greetings and welcome to my After-Dark Readers Merch shop and memberships! My name is Scarlet and I write all the things my alter ego dares not write in the light of day.

As an avid romance reader with a master's in history and culture, my stories cross genres and push boundaries, weaving together facts, fantasy, and romance of epic proportions.

When I'm not writing romance, I'm crafting romantic, weather-ravaged adventures as Lindsey Pogue.

This community is where I post behind-the-scenes content, character sheets, rough chapters, character art, and more.

My stuff is epic for all the deliciously right reasons. It's spicy, steamy, gritty, but at the heart of it all is an epic love story that will give you all the feels.

So, buckle up, buttercup! Let's do this!

My current project: The Darkborn Saga; Viking Vampires in a fantasy world inspirsed by Norse mythology. I'll post new content each month, so be sure to create your free account and join the fun!
