Draga & the savage: Dragobete
by Jenny Allen
Luminita
As a woman in medieval Romania, the inability to control my fate quickly grew from annoyance to a festering wound. Even as a Durand, who can rip the soul from a man, I have no place in power because I am female. When I left my home in Kotor, I vowed to prove the world wrong. Then I stumbled across a true mystery who eventually called me Draga, Beloved.
Aaron
After seven thousand years of life, I thought I'd uncovered all of life's secrets. Blood was my only joy as a vampire. When the Mongol's Golden Horde descended on us in 1241, I seized the opportunity to indulge myself amongst their atrocities. That is until a chance encounter earned me the name Salbatic, the Savage, and forever changed my life.
This is the 1st novella in a series exploring the life and times of Luminita and Aaron from the world of The Lilith Adams Series.

Draga & the Savage: Dracul Part 1
by Jenny Allen
Luminita
History is a muddled thing riddled with bias and agendas. Some recall Vlad Dracul III as a hero to the Romanian people who fought the nobility. Others claim he is the vicious Impaler of Wallachia who butchered thousands. Fiction paints him in a supernaturally evil light as the vampire of Bram Stoker. In my experience, all of these were true. I thought I could control the future Voivode, but one tragic mistake taught me how very wrong I was.
Aaron
Two hundred years have passed since I've laid eyes on Luminita, my Goddess of Blood and Chaos. I fill my days with war, acting as General to John Hunyadi, the Regent of Hungary. It's a satisfying enough existence that allows me to indulge my bloodlust, but when Vlad Dracul appears at the Beszterce court with his new bride, my world fractures. I am once again face to face with my goddess, and I will stop at nothing to free her.
