RAI - EPILOGUE

T urning was always going to be a part of the plan, but never did I think it would feel like this. A ripping sensation pulling me apart and putting me back together again into something new.

Stronger and faster than I’ve ever been before.

It took me some time to get used to it, but six months later and you’d never know I was awkward and clumsy. Learning to be satisfied enough with Valeska’s blood infusion took me longer than I thought it would, but now I’m able to function without wanting to kill everyone. Well, most people.

Not the scumbag who hangs before me as Valeska holds out the hand drill to me.

We had a long talk and she opened up to me about her past, how she became a vampire and that fucker of a husband who did it after I found the unused room in her suite.

It was filled with letters she’d written to him.

After she let me read them and shared her story, I was glad she’d killed him, and when I found out about her underworld, I wanted in.

All the things I wanted to do to the scumbags of this earth I can do down here with her by my side.

I have to do something now that I have so much time on my hands.

I quit my job because I’d found my sister, choosing to spend all of my time with Valeska, Azara, and Nico, repairing and healing the damage that tore through our world.

We still help the force out when they need information, and I found out Valeska had been donating to my family’s charity for years once she found out who my sister was. I worshipped her body to show her how much that had meant to me.

I kiss her before taking the drill.

“What was that for, mon ame?” Her sultry smile makes me want to forget what I’m doing and take her right here.

“I love you,” is my only reply before the drill whirrs to life and pierces the flesh of a man who deserves to die.

She laughs in delight and it encourages me. We spend hours down there playing with our new toy before I fuck her on the bench with all of her torture tools laid out around her. She’s so fucking beautiful when she is like this, letting me drive into her and coming together.

My still heart aches every time her silver bracelet glints in the light, catching the R initial she had added with hers and Azara’s. I never thought about where my life would end up once I found my sister, but I know now that everything was leading me up to this moment.

I’m finally getting my happily ever after.
