The Two Axes

In the earliest dawn of history and mythology, the M¿ori Divinities, crafted three powerful spiritual objects to safeguard their world and ensure the continuity of their lineage. These objects possessed extraordinary abilities and were revered as symbols of divine protection. Over the ages, various creatures from different realms have become aware of the existence of these spiritual objects, and their extraordinary abilities, and have tried to seize the artifacts for their own nefarious purposes.
Powerful Demigod parents, Papat¿¿nuku and Ranginui, who created the world and all living things in M¿ori cultural history, want their son Talahani, who is next in line to the throne, to learn how to control his incredible strength and abilities. In order to prepare their son for the challenges ahead, Papat¿¿nuku and Ranginui have sent Talahani to attend the Legacies Academy, where he can learn how to harness his powers, so that he will one day be able to protect, serve, and become a wise and responsible leader for their people, one who works alongside others to achieve common goals.
Lauren Garuccio is a petite and feisty red-haired vampire, who found herself in a unique situation when she discovered her heritage-a combination of Taniwha and Lepidoptera. Tragically, her parents met an untimely end at the hands of the Debauched on the streets of Paris. Left without a family, Lauren was taken in by the Gramaze coven, who became her new guardians and mentors.

When Lauren is first introduced to Talahani at the Legacies Academy she finds herself inexplicably drawn to him. It's not just his good looks that captivate her, but also his confident demeaner, which sparks a curious fascination within her.
When Talahani's brother sets out to steal The Two Axes, Lauren and Talahani must work with others from the Legacies Academy and the Gramaze coven in a collective effort to thwart his plans.
