On nights of wolfish howling
fragile, an owl descends,
soft watchful eyes cocooning
the hunter’s wounded pet.
This world has but three corners.
This trap is a healing cove.
Here lie by cruelty bandaged
willing hostages bound in love.

“Luke, tortured by madness, has two companions–rivals for his affection: the fair and loving winged elf, Diana, and the dark, seemingly cruel vampire, Julian. One provides calm and comfort; warm, tender moments and a simple joys. The other provides satisfaction of darker needs, release so to speak, but also has the power to exercise control when all else fails. With a protector more fragile than he and a guardian that may well be a predator, Prince Luke lives, between sanity and madness, in this constantly precarious arrangement…and here hopes to convalesce.”

Both written and drawn by the ever-amazing Delurianne! Her style fascinates me. All the symbolism she’s put into this with Julian’s reflections in the window…is brilliant. I’m at a loss for words.
