Bloodlust and Bylines

Zusatztext

Investigative journalist Frank would do anything for the next big scoop, and a chance to break the news to the world that vampires really exist is too good to pass up. But his fact-finding mission to an undead hangout takes a terrifying turn when he's locked in a cellar with a starving -- if sexy -- bloodsucker and no escape in sight. Forlorn vampire Viktor hasn't had a bite in months, ever since falling foul of über-vamp The Mistress and being imprisoned for his sins. Delivered to his cell like Meals on Wheels, Frank's the tastiest morsel he's seen in a long time. Viktor can't wait to get his fangs into him -- and there's something about Frank that makes Viktor lust for more than just his blood.  To escape the mysterious Mistress's prison, predator and prey will have to work together -- if, that is, they can manage to rein in their baser appetites for long enough!  Note: this short story was previously published under the title Becoming the Spoils.
