Dark Hunter's Oath and Code

[betrayedbylove]

Oath

I am Darkness. I am Shadow.
I am Ruler of the Night.
I, alone, stand between mankind and those who would see mankind destroyed.  I am the Guardian.
The Soulless Keeper.
Neither Human, nor Apollite, I exist beyond the realm of the Living, beyond the realm of the Dead.
I am the Dark Hunter.
And I am Eternal... unless I find that one pure heart who will never betray me.  The one whose faith and courage can return my soul to me and bring me back into the light.

- Quoted from Sherrilyn Kenyon's Night Embrace
