Fourteen years ago, the moon had saved him. She had given him life. He had never known why.
Now, when the forces of light and dark threaten to bring Corona to its knees, only Varian can end it once and for all. But he doesn’t feel so sure—he has no weapons, no power.
All he has is a precious knowledge of self-destruction.

Sequel to Steady Beats the Heart that Bleeds Red
[indefinite hiatus]
Hello to my readers!
I am so glad to be back and bringing more to this story, though I am sorry it’s been so long. A massive thank you goes out to all of you for your incredible support and continued interest in my work. I don’t know that I would have kept this up without you. So thank you.
This is the sequel to Steady Beats the Heart that Bleeds Red. It will be referenced quite often, so this will definitely make more sense having read it first.
We’ve traveled down a dark road and found our way to the other side. Now it’s time for another adventure with Varian, featuring new battles, old enemies, and, of course, all the angst.
Chapter 1. Overture.
Chapter 2. Forewarning.
Chapter 3. Summertime madness.
Chapter 4. Tell me it’s okay to bleed.
Chapter 5. Do not go where I cannot follow.
Chapter 6. A precious knowledge—
Chapter 7.
Chapter 8. —of self destruction.
Chapter 9. I hope they remember you.
Chapter 10.
Chapter 11. Hymn for the fallen.
Chapter 12. And as the dust settles,
Chapter 13. our enemies conspire.
