Thirty-Eight

ROLPHE’S EYES WERE closed as he contemplated his situation. He wasn’t in his body. He was in an astral realm where Col was being contained in a relatively small, parklike setting. Rolphe was comfortable being in that kind of environment. Long ago, when he’d been with a woman named Chessa, she’d shown him how to travel to places very different from the physical. He’d once experienced a beautiful world where energy was much more fluid and changeable. He could take any form he wanted. He and Chessa often chose wolf bodies so that they could run free in the vibrant landscape together. But those days came to an end with Chessa’s death.

Chessa was the gypsy who’d given him a virus. It killed most people, but somehow Rolphe survived. He didn’t know about viruses back then and thought himself a vampire. He craved blood and found it easy to kill for it. He told himself his new way of life wasn’t so different from his life as a soldier.

It was a lie that Rolphe had to eventually face. He couldn’t escape his upbringing, with its teachings about God and right and wrong. After years of trying to avoid the truth, he knew he’d eventually pay for his transgressions. He’d burn in hell for eternity.

Arel changed Rolphe’s life. Arel passed on angelic blood. Instead of it helping Rolphe to feel better about himself, it did the opposite. The holy substance brought all of Rolphe’s wrongdoings to the surface. Faced with a long lifetime of wickedness, Rolphe had to fight the most intense battle of his life. He’d do anything to stay alive, to avoid the hell that waited for him.

He also craved the very thing Arel had given him, angelic blood. It was both a damning agent and the most wonderful intoxicant he could imagine. He was determined to get more of it by feeding on William. Arel constantly fought Rolphe’s evil desires, but Rolphe was tough and determined. Finally, Arel exhausted himself and nearly died.

Rolphe took advantage of Arel’s weakened condition. After some cunning plans and trickery, Rolphe got his wish. He wantonly feasted on William’s blood and would have killed the man if it hadn’t been for some unexpected intervention. The incident was Rolphe’s downfall. The guilt he’d been suppressing couldn’t be held back any longer.

When Arel found out about William’s fate, he rallied. No matter what it took, he was going to stop Rolphe. Rolphe’s heart gave out before Arel could take action. Riddled with self-loathing and hating what he’d become, Rolphe’s physical vessel failed.

Those events were still vivid in Rolphe’s mind. What followed would always remain with him. Arel could have left him to die, but he didn’t. Arel’s deeper nature, the one that went beyond the boundaries of anger and judgment had prevailed. Arel took pity on Rolphe and helped him.

Rolphe wondered about how to do the same for Col. But Col was a soul who had no intention of bowing to guilt. Col had no remorse for his evil ways.
