A Flicker of Hope

Kegan Tulach already knew that monsters were real. He'd faced them. Watched in horror as they killed those he loved. Then run from them. It was his response for the past two years. But now, on his twenty-first birthday, running wasn't an option. He had no where to go. It was time for him to face his worst nightmare.
There weren't many people who could do what Bjorn did. Fight monsters and live to tell the tale. It was a job thrust upon him as a kid. If he had known the true hell that would be cursed upon him, he would have preferred to die even though he'd only been fourteen at the time. Now, years later, he had hope that the curse would come to an end. The question was, would he choose the death he'd so desperately craved for more than a millennia, or would he do the one thing he swore he'd never do? Choose love.
If Kegan and Bjorn can find a way past their fears, they may discover something worth living for - each other.
This is a stand alone with an HEA, but reading the first book is recommended for full enjoyment.
