Kasadya: Hellhound Twisted (Book #2 of the
Kasadya Series)
She fought against all odds and became the
warrior she was meant to be … or so she thought. In a world where the rules
have changed, can she embrace her destiny and become the hellhound she was
meant to be?
Kasadya is back in Exsilium and finds her
world a little different. Her half-breed fallen friends join her, and they are
ordered to complete their apprentice training in order to obtain the right to
be guardians. She must learn that her own fate cannot be denied and that others
are set to follow. But most of all, she must learn that to trust is the
greatest battle of all.
The tables are turned and Kasadya is put to
the test. Will she be able to prevent her own death, or that of a friend? Or
will her actions call forth the destruction of Earth and Exsilium?
For a
Phoenix to rise, it must first die. —Chax De Luca

Excerpts -
“Do
you serve because you want to gain access to Heaven? Or do you serve because
you want to, because it is in your heart to?” I challenged them, and silence
greeted me. The few eyes that had
shown aggression now looked to the earth, shamed at the conclusion of my
challenge. They serve themselves, for their own cause. They are not here
because their hearts tell them that this is the right thing to do.
“These
humans are out there every day, fighting to eliminate the demons, and they do
this because they want to. They do this because it was their free willed choice
to do it. You speak about honour and love, yet all of you are only doing this
for yourselves!” I was pissed off, talk about hypocrites!
****
“Just breathe through it,”
Chax tried once more. But my breathing wasn’t slowing down and my normal vision
was almost non-existent. What a final moment. Here in the cold with my Custos,
no final glory, no grand exit, just us in a deserted place. Suddenly a pain
shot through my wing and I screamed in agony. Confused, I looked at the wing,
and then at Chax and froze. He just broke my wing, the pain rippling up to my
back and into my spine. Shocked and suddenly afraid I looked at him, “Now
breathe,” he instructed and I did.
I lay there, pinned beneath
him, and started to try and control my breathing. He was watching me intently,
his eyes boring into mine. “That’s it,” he said after a few minutes. “Take back
control, this is how you will fight it, this is how you will live longer.” I
felt heat on my left cheek and then felt it become ice cold, stopping just below
my jaw. The same was happening on my other cheek. Tears, I felt my tears. Angry that I would be so weak in front of
the one person I wanted to prove myself to, I pushed him off me and got up in
super speed. Walking away from him, I wiped the now frozen tears off my face.

“Oh wait, I didn’t tell you
about this part. So he was looking at the waterfall, then he stepped on to the
top and looked down to try and see me. The next thing he slipped and fell in,
and I do believe he was cursing in Russian.” I looked at Kali and we started
laughing all over again. But clearly Max didn’t approve.
“I did not slip, you shot me
with a light bomb and then I fell into the water,” he rectified the facts.
Nanini turned around on her
butt and looked at him. “Yeah, can you prove it, Godzilla?” she taunted him.
