Here Comes the Sun - E-book - ePub

In the hushed solitude of a desert mountaintop, Asa Beck, a centuries-old vampire, perches on the precipice of his existence. With the horizon aglow, heralding the impending sunrise to the east, he grapples with a lifetime burdened by immortality and the shadows of a tormented past. As the first rays of dawn paint the sky in amber and gold, Asa's thoughts drift back to the origin of his immortal curse-the twisted path that led him to embrace the darkness within and the relentless thirst that etched deep scars upon his soul. Yet amid this bleakness, there remains a flicker of bittersweet memory-the one man Asa dared to love, a beacon of light in his endless night.
Their love, forbidden and fleeting, lingers as a poignant reminder of a human heart that once beat within his chest. With the sun's ascent looming ever closer, Asa confronts an existential crossroad. Should he continue his existence as a creature of the night, forever haunted by the echoes of his past and the insatiable hunger that defines him? Or does he dare to seek redemption, to find solace in the eternal slumber that awaits with the breaking dawn? As the first rays crest the horizon, casting long shadows across the barren landscape, Asa Beck, the immortal wanderer, finds himself at the brink of a decision that will define his eternal fate.
