Raythe Reign's Ever Dark

Chapter 2 of a gay vampire paranormal romance acted by a voice cast of 5 (or more!)

Christian and Julian follow their research to the library, which holds the gate to the vampire city somewhere in its depths. They see something that Christian, at least, never expected to see.

This story will be posted IN FULL on YouTube, Spotify, iTunes, etc. However, any sensual scenes will be edited out to avoid content strikes so that everyone can enjoy the story.

The full version of the chapters are only available in our private Member podcast feed or the audiobook. (And they aren't even that hardcore!)

IMPORTANT INFO

YouTube's decided that our Dragon's Reign ad is 'shocking' and won't run it.

YouTube kisses the ass of corporate stakeholders who don't like dudes almost-kissing (but hate content is perfectly fine!)

DON'T GIVE US MONEY ON YOUTUBE if you can help it. By all means help us get organic reach by subscribing, liking, commenting, etc, but if you want to financially support our company, buy a Membership instead. You'll get the sexy chapters (which we can't post to YT anymore) and everything Raythe writes.

Now that Dragon's Reign is over, you may be wondering what's next. We're producing Ever Dark with a cast of 5 (or more?) actors from Her Grace Reads Studio! In this mini-episode, the actors introduce themselves so you can get to know them.

This is it! The last episode of Dragon's Reign. We hope you've enjoyed this audiobook/podcast, as amateur as our efforts have been (chapter 89, anyone?)

It may have been just a few weeks for you to listen to all the episodes, but for us, it has been almost three years (since September 2019.) We hope you join us for the next podcast!

We really hope you join us for the next season, which is a completely different story (but gay romance and of course magical/supernatural.) We would LOVE to hear what you think, and the best way to do this is to come by the YouTube channel and leave a comment on this episode: https://youtu.be/30boq99-ZTI

Ever Dark is a gay vampire romance story podcast. Every week, we upload one new episode in the ongoing story.

JULIAN & DAEMON

Julian Harrow: His paranormal-researcher parents were murdered by vampires, and he wants to expose - and destroy - them... until he encounters them and finds his destiny when he awakens the vampires' mythical king.

Daemon: Loneliness drove him to enter into a deep sleep for thousands of years because his blood killed all the fledglings he'd tried to create. Then Julian awakens him in his ancient forgotten tomb.

CHRISTIAN & BALTHAZAR

Christian Thorne: He follows his adoptive brother Julian everywhere, including the vampire realm, where he is brutally bitten and drained. Though wary, Christian's curiosity about the vampire world, and his vampire savior, help him navigate this new world.

Lord Balthazar Ravenscroft: Exiled from the Ever Dark for murdering his abusive master, Balthazar wants to regain power and protect his house of powerful misfits. When Christian joins his household, Balthazar only wants to spend time with him.

Ever Dark is a full-cast podcast on YouTube, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. Certain episodes have been edited for non-PG content. Join as a Member of Raythe Reign to get the members-only uncensored and uninterrupted episodes here: https://raythereign.com/membership/signup

The PREMIERE is only on YouTube. We'll be hanging out in the chat and watching the last episode of Dragon's Reign with you. (https://youtube.com/c/raythereign)

Chapter 139 of the gay fantasy serial story, Dragon's Reign, read by the author. Reunited in the Below, Caden and Valerius fly off to High Reach to make love when they've had enough socializing, but WE CAN'T POST IT because corporations find loving, fictional, vanilla sex unpalatable.

Check our ending note about why this chapter is so short, and how you can get the COMPLETE Chapter 139.

Chapter 138 of the gay fantasy serial story, Dragon's Reign, read by the author. Valerius's bachelor party is not the agonizing event that he fears. Instead, he is treated to good food, drinks, and toasts both touching (Mei) and awkward (Tez...)
