The Seductive Process
Phase One: Separation—Stirring Interest and Desire
1-Choose the Right Victim:
Everything depends on the target of your seduction. Study your prey thoroughly, and choose only those who will prove susceptible to your charms. The right victims are those for whom you can fill a void, who see in you something exotic.

I gripped his face with both hands. My breath came in deep, painful gasps. My vision blurred.
I didn’t cry when Ilana died. I hadn’t cried since the last time I stabbed my lover. I swore to myself—and to Vincent—that night that I never would again.
But I had been wrong. I had been wrong about so, so much. The world had just lost an incredible force. And my presence here was not enough to make up for that.
In this game, only one of us would win. And it shouldn’t have been me. It shouldn’t have been me.
Nothing existed except for him and the light I had just snuffed out of this world.
ONCE UPON A time, there was a king who had three beautiful daughters. The girls grew up as lovely as the day was long. They made grand marriages, too, but the arrival of the first grandchild brought disappointment. The youngest princess produced a daughter so very, very tiny that her mother took to keeping her in a pocket, where the girl went

His tongue moved slowly over the wound. I hadn’t been expecting the tenderness of it. Soft, and gentle. An apology, and a promise.
He lowered my hand. Swallowed my blood.
I wanted to look away. I couldn’t.
“Oraya of the Nightborn,” he murmured. “I give you my body. I give you my blood. I give you my soul. I give you my heart. From this night until the end of nights. From daybreak until our days are broken. Your soul is my soul. Your heart is my heart. Your pain is my pain. I bind myself to you.”
I wanted it to all be a lie. But it was not a lie.
The first object in a male’s personal history and in cultural importance is the mother. It is in properly internalizing her as an object that the male learns everything from heterosexuality to heterosexuality (homosexuality being generally regarded as a failure to learn), including: how to be a separate human being, that is, how to separate from
“That,” said Alucard, “is the work of Sea Serpents.”
Lila’s eyes widened. “Please tell me you’re talking about mercenaries and not giant ship-eating snakes.”
Alucard raised a brow. “Giant ship-eating snakes? Really?”
“What?” she challenged. “How am I supposed to know where to draw the line in this world?”
“You can draw it well before giant ship-eating snakes."

We barely made it halfway through.
It was an impossible task. Every time I had him, I discovered a new piece of him I wanted to claim. It was the opposite of satisfaction. With each climax, I only desired more. By the time we found ourselves crawling into the bed out of sheer exhaustion, I had come up with far, far more than a single night’s worth of fantasies.
“As long as you stay back here, even at high noon, the light won’t flood into this room. But you can still see the sun in the mirror. It’s… it’s nice in the middle of the day. The sun reflects off the church spires.”
I said it so casually, as if I hadn’t spent hours perfecting the placement of that mirror, making sure it framed everything I found so beautiful about the sleeping city in daylight, the way no one but me could see it. Until now.
Raihn was quiet for a long time.
“Careful, princess,” he said at last, his voice rough. “Someone might think you’re actually nice.”
But his words mattered so much less than the persistent tug of the smile across his lips. And every day after that, he dragged a chair to that turn of the hallway, and he watched the sun rise and fall over Sivrinaj as if it was the most precious gift in the world.
In times like that, it was too easy for me to forget the grim reality of our situation.
But the darkness of it slipped through, anyway.

In a dark time, the eye begins to see.
I meet my shadow in the deepening shade;
I hear my echo in the echoing wood—
A lord of nature weeping to a tree.
I live between the heron and the wren,
Beasts of the hill and serpents of the den.
Islamic scholars’ distance from state authorities went back to the midseventh century, when the Umayyads established their dynasty by persecuting
the Prophet Muhammad’s descendants and violently crushing any opposition to
their rule. This violent consolidation of power led to the disenchantment with the
political authority in the eyes of many Islamic scholars. These scholars’ aloofness
with respect to political authorities was reinforced in the late Umayyad and early
Abbasid eras, from the mid-eighth to the mid-ninth century. During this period,
the four main Sunni schools of jurisprudence (fiqh) were founded by independent
scholars – Abu Hanifa, Malik, Shafii, and Ahmad ibn Hanbal – all of whom
refused to be state servants. Moreover, these founders were imprisoned and
persecuted by authorities due to their dissenting opinions. Shii religious leaders
faced even more persecution by the political class.
Sayfa 3
Voltaire said about God that ‘there is no God, but don’t tell that to my servant, lest he murder me at night’. Hammurabi would have said the same about his principle of hierarchy, and Thomas Jefferson about human rights. Homo sapiens has no natural rights, just as spiders, hyenas and chimpanzees have no natural rights. But don’t tell that to our servants, lest they murder us at night
