Ariel’s shock was evident despite the distances that separated them. Shea wanted her to try to reach Gabriel? What she’d felt from Mikhail and Gabriel was an unbridled lust to consume. What if they pulled her in and she couldn’t escape? Further, Gabriel was considerably older and more powerful than ...

Mikhail’s reason warred with the driving desire for blood. His reaction to Ariel’s presence remained a troubling thought buried behind the consuming need. But Raven’s scream dragged him from the blood lust and just millimeters away from the precipice he was so willing to go over, long enough for him...

Belle studied Byron for a very long while. Whatever internal debate she was having remained hidden only to her own counsel, and no hint marred her beautiful features. “Les tours que nous avons employé la dernière fois ne fonctionneraient pas une deuxième fois.” Belle at last spoke, and she of any cr...

Byron’s search took him into every dark nook and cranny of Paris. La Belle was the source of the blood in Paris, and indeed for much of Europe. She was older than most of the masters, and so powerful that few could resist her call. Every fiber of Byron’s body screamed for her destruction, but if he ...

"We are what we are. But you have not answered my query. If, in truth this Le Noir is about, why do you seek me through these means? Had it not been I who touched on that unprotected link, what do you believe would have happened?" Ariel paused, the blood lust had not affected any of the fe...

Ariel stilled as an alien and unknown consciousness touched her own. It was old and very powerful, but she couldn’t detect the kind of malevolence she’d felt from the Prince, or from her brothers. She reached toward the consciousness, ~Are you the one they call Tass?~ She waited, ready to slam down ...

Byron was buried deeply into the ancient texts of the French National Museum archives. There had been a huge increase in the vampyre population in the early 1600’s, and he wanted a look at the writings of the times. He hadn’t been in France at the time, but he knew several Carpathians had been sent ...

Mikhail spun around as Ariel made her presence known. There was a feral need in his eyes when he spotted her. He instantly attacked Ariel. Teeth and claws ripping as Ariel instantly dissolved into mist and fled. She couldn’t hope to go toe to toe with Mikhail, escape was her only hope. Raven screame...

Gregori wrestled with his own internal demons. Savannah was his mate, she brought light and life into his bleak world. This kind of hunger should no longer exist for him, yet here it was, driving him to the very edge where he would lose his soul and become that which he had hunted for so many centur...

Ariel felt the wash of insatiable hunger when Gabriel had been awake, but since he had been sent to sleep, it had not troubled her. When the Need slammed into her this time, she let out a yelp that startled her customer in the show room of her art studio. Her hand went protectively to her stomach as...

Dominik rose as Mikhail arrived. He had long thought about approaching the Carpathian Prince, but somehow he felt it would do little good now that his kind were nearly extinct. But he rose and bowed deeply. “Good evening Prince Mikhail of the Carpathians.” Mikhail studied the Dragonseeker a moment, ...

Ariel’s voice was wearing thin as they repeated the great healing chant over and over. The En Sarna Pus was reserved for only the most gravely wounded. The beautiful voices blended together repeatedly as Lucien fought to hold onto the faint spark that remained of Gabriel. Ot ekäm ainajanak hany, jam...

Ariel knelt beside her brothers, prepared to open her wrist to Gabriel when Dominik intervened. The Dragonseeker’s metallic green eyes locked with Lucien, “Allow me to do this thing, Gabriel and I have had many discussions these last months, and we have many common understandings.” Lucien nodded onc...

Ariel was working on a commissioned piece when three telepathic connections formed. She froze where she sat with molten bronze ready to pour. Her sister in law reached her first, asking if she was coming, then Lucien, saying he needed her, and feebly and very faintly, Gabriel’s, telling her to stay ...

Dominik and Ariel worked through the night incorporating as much Carpathian magic and Dragonseeker sorcery into the gem as they could. The carbon matrix of the diamond held the secrets of the Carpathian people, and the protections they could instill for the child. The blackness of night began to mak...
