Trinity pressed her foot harder, the razor blades cutting into the vampire’s neck. His arms flailed out, trying to yank her foot away from his neck. His legs kicked wildly, but Trinity had a good ten pounds on the scrawny vamp. Tilting her toe downward, she sliced deep into his neck, finally cutting his head off. In a whoosh he disintegrated into a pile of dust, his last breaths used to scream his way to death

“Remind me again why I have to be the bait?”
Dante heard Jonah’s voice in his ear as he hid behind the dumpster. Lowering his voice, he replied, “Because I was bait last time.”
“Right. You’ll tell Ariel I love her if I don’t make it?”
“You’ll be just fine, Jonah. I’ve got you covered and Basil is lurking about, ready to jump in and snatch the bastards. Just stay calm.”

There was blood, all around him, pools of it, teasing him, calling to him, and all he wanted was to drink it. The scent of it, like strong copper, filled his nostrils and tantalized his tastebuds.
He wanted it more than life itself.
“Jonah? Are you okay?”
“Please, stay away from me.” She stepped up beside him and he could hear her blood rushing through her veins, her heart as it pounded in her chest. With each whoosh his body responded.

"You wanna unfreeze me now?""Right, because I look stupid."
"Well—"
"Don’t."
"You walked into it, toots."
She narrowed those big, brown eyes at him. "Don’t call me that. If I let you go the first thing you’ll do is jump me and bite my neck."
"Doesn’t have to be the neck and I’d probably do more than just bite you."

"I love you with all my heart, Gabriella. Today, we will be one forever."
Her body pulsated with the orgasm that rippled through. As she arched her back, crying out with her release, he lowered his mouth to her neck. When his own release burst free, he penetrated her neck with his teeth. "Cooper…no!"

The scent of blood permeated the air, tingling his senses. “Taste him.” The arm was shoved towards his face and though inside Dusty cringed, his tongue slid out to sample. “Good, now find him. Run, kid.” The young boy was released and he ran as if his life depended on it. It did.
 “Whatcha waitin’ for, Destroyer. Go get him.”
“What?”
 “Get him.”  
“You want me to chase him?”
“Yep. You taste his blood and should be able to smell it as you go on your search. Come on, Destroyer, earn your name.”

"What? You’ve never seen a vampire before?"
"A what?"
"A vampire."
 "I heard you. I thought I’d seen it all, but I guess not. Now we’ve got junkies playing vampire," The detective chuckled with a shake of his head. One look at the guy told her he was serious.
"Oh jeez, he’s a virgin,"

"What is that?" "Your enemy." Taking her hand in his, he led her to the dummy. "Meet Buster." "Buster?" "He’s here for you to beat on." With her brow lifted, Deborah replied, "Come again?" "I can feel you hesitating when I’m teaching you self defense. I know it’s because you don’t want to hurt me, so this is my solution. Today, you’ll put everything you’ve got into Buster. Now, go get changed so we can get started." "You want me to pound on this rag doll?" "I do indeed. He can take it."

Standing on a ladder stood a man in tight cut-off jean shorts and nothing more. His body was bronze and rippling with muscles.
Sweet heavenly God, the man was magnificent.
“Ex—” She cleared the lump in her throat. “Excuse me.” Oh, baby,
look at those muscles bunch as he moves. “Hi.”
“Hey.”
“I’m your new neighbor.” And hadn’t she hit the jackpot with him. Who could ask for a better neighbor than a god like that? “Cassie Evans.”
“Welcome to the neighborhood, Miss Evans.”

 “Officer, oh, officer. I need your help.”
“Is there a problem, Mrs. Dunbar?”
“Yes, yes, oh, dear.”
“Just relax, Mrs. Dunbar. Take a deep breath and tell me what’s wrong.”
“It’s Mr. Jingles, he’s stuck under the tree.”
 “Okay, just relax. Was he conscious when you left him?”
“Oh yes, and yelling his head off.”
“Okay, that’s good. What part of him is under the tree?”
“His tail.”
He paused not just in step, but thought as well. “Come again?”
“His tail. I heard him crying, so I went out to see where he’d gotten to, and I found him stuck under the tree.”
“His tail?”
“Yes,” she said with exasperation, leading him to the back of the house. “See.”
One look and Vic wanted to curse out loud. “That’s a cat.”

“Constable Healy. Beth?”
“Justin?”
“Yeah, it’s me. Jesus, look at you, all copped out. Holy hell, look at you.” He swiped the hat off her head and whistled as all that blond hair tumbled free.
“Give me back my hat, Justin.” She yanked it from his grasp.
“You look incredible.”
“I see you haven’t changed much. Still breaking the law.” She pulled out her pad and began writing.
“What is that?”
“A ticket.” She snapped it off and held it out to him. “Slow down.”
“Funny.” He tore it in half.
“You can’t rip up a ticket.” She proceeded to write out another one.
“Give me a break, Beth.” He took the second one and repeated his action with the first.
“Fine, have it your way.”
She pulled out her handcuffs, and he looked down at them. “What the hell are you doing with those?”
“Cuffing you. You have the right to remain silent—”
“You can’t be serious.”
