Undeadly Sinful

Of all the places I had planned to spend my Saturday evening, the crypt of the Head Vampire of the city was not one I'd even considered. But here I was. Two of Aidan's goons had grabbed me. Right out of the strip club where I was working undercover. No, I'm not a cop. I'm a reporter. I'm also a vampire killer. My name is Jeana Keller.

His white shirt had frothy lace at the throat, and it spilled out over his chest. He wore black leather boots that came to his knees. Also, he had silver cufflinks set with diamonds and emeralds.

He had painted his fingernails black, which in some ways did make him look sort of feminine, but since he was a vampire and all, part of his allure was his androgynous appearance and homoerotic overtone. Every time I saw him, my breath caught in my throat, my heart dropped into my stomach, and my legs quivered and threatened to give way.

This was probably because he used his mental powers to disturb my body internally. Aidan wouldn't
