The sun shone through the clouds in lazy shafts, punching holes in the blanket of grey overhead. I turned my head towards the sky and smiled as sunlight spilled over me, filling me with its warmth.

I was standing on the top of a hill, looking out over a reddish-brown desert interspersed with cactuses and enormous rock formations which were too incredible for words. A shadow circled overhead, and I spotted a bald eagle soaring across the cloud-filled sky. It watched me, wheeling through the air in lazy circles before turning and flying away.

I tracked the path of its flight, and in the distance, I noticed a line of greenery which marked the start of a forest. But right here, nothing substantial grew. It was a playground for the wind and the creatures who thrived in its mischief.

I looked down and found myself wearing the strangest clothes. A thin cotton shirt lay beneath fighting leathers similar to Magnar’s. The outfit was sculpted to my curves, cinching in at my waist while revealing much more of my chest than I was used to revealing.

Fury was in my hand, its presence warm and reassuring, but somehow it wasn’t the same as usual. Like its personality was missing, a dullness where its wit and bloodlust usually lay.

A warm breeze picked up and my long hair was tossed around me, the sun glinting off of it as if it were actually made of spun gold.

The sound of clashing steel reached me, and I turned to look down the hill at my back, blinking in surprise at what I found there.

A fearsome battle was taking place between four figures who were bathed in the sunlight spilling through a hole in the clouds overhead, and a tide of vampires clung to the shadows surrounding them.

I stepped closer, recognising Magnar even from this distance as he swung Tempest in a mighty arc, destroying more vampires than I could count, ash billowing away on the wind.

More monsters swarmed forward to take their place and he lunged at them too, his powerful body moving to the rhythm of the battle like he’d been born for it.

The man to his right roared a challenge as he cut through foe after foe of his own. His skin was paler than the others, but his hair was as long as Magnar’s and braided with golden beads, as was the long beard which coated his jaw. He raised his sword above his head, and I recognised Venom just before it carved a vampire from nose to navel, finding his heart along the way and scattering him to dust.

My mouth fell open as I realised who the man was. I was looking at Magnar’s father. The man Erik Belvedere had murdered and turned into a vampire.

This wasn’t my dream. Magnar must have fallen asleep beside me on the train, and I’d found my way into his.

Holy shit.

I glanced around, wondering if I should try to get out of here, to step out of this place and leave him to the privacy of his own mind.
