    Summary

    Fifteen years ago, they were young, human, and on the cusp of a life together. Then, Azriel missed the shadows pulling Gwyn away until she vanished entirely.

    Today, he tracks her as a weapon forged by the Church, his heart encased in the armor of a holy warrior. But when he finally corners her, he is forced to face the terrifying depth of her immortal state.

    She is a vampire, a monster to be put down. But to Azriel, she is still an open wound. Face-to-face in the dark, his sacred vows are put to the ultimate test: can the rigid Temperance of a holy hunter survive the ravenous Gluttony of the monster he used to love?

    Written for Gwynriel’s Happy Endings: Saints & Sinners, in celebration of Gwynrielweeks 2026.
