Bound to Shadows
“I’ll even admit that I enjoy hunting down those rogue supernatural elements who prey on humans and non-humans alike.
But that doesn’t mean there still aren’t times when I absolutely hate my job.
Getting a call-out at three A.M. on a bitterly cold winter night was definitely one of those times. Especially when the call sent me to an area rapidly gaining a reputation as the “it” spot for blood whores—which was the common term for humans hooked on the pleasures of a vampire’s bite.
Nor...mally I didn’t have a problem with people getting their kicks any damn way they pleased, but for humans—and it only seemed to afflict humans, not the rest of us—becoming addicted to a vampire’s bite was definitely one of the quicker ways to court death. They simply didn’t have the strength, the speed, or even the willpower to battle a vampire if things went wrong. Hell, many supernaturals didn’t, either.
And while most vampires were generally law-abiding and took only enough to give the addicted his or her hit, there were always some abusers who pushed for longer, stronger rushes, and there were always vampires willing to oblige.MoreLess
