Wars of the Dark

Prologue: Death of a Monster

The beast lunged at him, striking his arm and nearly severing it with its teeth had he not sliced the monster's belly with a blade. With a mighty heave, he threw the beast away near the surrounding foliage, and the creature struggled to get up.

"You've lost the battle, beast," he snarled, walking over to the creature to grip it by the throat, easily lifting it up into the air. The beast lashed out with its claws, but couldn't reach. It began to say something, but pressure on its throat stopped the words before they could even be formed. Sinister eyes glinted in the light. "Prepare to die."

The creature whined, grimacing in pain.

With a blood thirsty roar, he brought his hand around and drove it into the creature's chest, fisting the raw, beating heart and yanking it out in a splatter of hot red.

The beast – not yet dead – raised its muzzle and howled sorrowfully to the woods. If the other's senses weren't clouded in bloodlust, he would've heard the mourning howl of another – the sound echoing throughout the night drenched in light from the red moon.

The dead creature dropped to the earth with a dull thump, as the man stared in fascination at his hand – at the still faintly beating heart. He could feel it moving – struggling, it seemed – in between his fingers.

Slowly, his mind blank, he raised the dying muscle to his mouth and bit, a brilliant burst of copper washing over his tongue and down his throat, staining not just his teeth but his own heart as well.

He devoured the dying strength within moments, feeling a strange sensation come over his body as he slowly – carefully – licked the blood off his fingers with a calculating care.

He decided he liked the taste as he turned and left the park, entering the deserted streets on the other side as if nothing had happened.

From far away in the dense trees of the forest, a monster howled mournfully, the sound making the red moon dull and blur – as if it itself was crying.

But no one heard except for the creature itself.
