The Enforcer: Eternal Redemption
Updated at Jun 20, 2024, 13:10
Think: Clueless meets Dracula The Enforcer: Eternal Redemption Fantasy/ Paranormal Is about a group of Vampires living in the modern- day world. Several, Edwin Aldemeer included, are centuries old. Edwin is a member of the elite warrior class who protect a council of elders that act as the governing body for these creatures. Power struggles arise continuously so these underground citizens must be policed. Edwin was sired by a powerful female from the North. He is ruthless, cunning, intelligent and has never been defeated in battle. Althea Adams is a recently turned daughter of Marcus Grigory Ignatius whose bloodlines run back to Roman times. Marcus is an Ancient. His power has no boundaries. His mental acuity far exceeds most of his kind. He is a member of the Council. Althea has learned of a young vampire who has fallen in love with a human female. She is introduced and chaos ensues, for she is a hopeless romantic at heart. Humans are mortal enemies of the Realm. The Code does not allow for any fraternization. The penalty is death for all concerned. Edwin is dispatched to eliminate these disobedient rebels. He is very efficient at his job. However, Edwin is well acquainted with Marcus Ignatius and his daughter. He finds Althea immature, unreasonable and slightly deranged. But he certainly does not wish to end her young, promising life. Or make an enemy of the powerful Ignatius. The more time Edwin spends with Althea, the more a reluctant attraction grows. Her outlook on life is refreshing, thought-provoking which Edwin finds quite fascinating, were he honest with himself. He champions her cause in the end, all the time planning a one- time sexual encounter that he hopes will eliminate the irrational emotions he feels for the female. Then he can go on his way, leaving the problem to a more capable individual of his breed. Althea takes it upon herself to help the young lovers and she does so by going against her Sire’s wishes but more so, by reviving his son, who Marcus supposedly killed decades back. Nathaniel was also involved with a human female who he loved beyond his life but in trying to turn her, he killed her. Nathaniel did not wish to live and asked his father to end his life. Marcus could not find it in his soul to do so. And now, Althea has resurrected Nathaniel. Marcus fears his son will hate him for not being able to do the one thing Nathaniel ever asked of him. Althea has disobeyed her Sire one too many times. Or has she. Marcus is secretly pleased to have his son back in the family’s embrace. He and another Ancient devise a plan to bring Edwin and Althea together. But first, the Enforcer must prove his love and loyalty by test. Althea needs to be loved unconditionally, her insecurities run deep. Her trust is not easily won. Passing the test will be the most difficult task Edwin has ever been assigned. Edwin is a mature, stable, capable being. Althea is...not. So, the clash between these two would-be lovers is the crux of the appeal of the story. Althea is sharp-witted, sarcastic and wary but her heart is as soft and gooey as a marshmallow, once the walls come down. Edwin must breech these thorn covered citadels with determination, conviction and the patience of a Saint. Thea’s journey to womanhood is a confusing, delightful journey for the reader. Edwin’s transformation from a stern, no-nonsense, cynical warrior is heart- warming and amusing at times.
