Violence, abusive behaviour This man had approached Faith within seconds of her leaving the motel. Nothing about him was attractive; he looked like he had been randomly generated by a people machine and plonked in front of her. But if she closed her eyes, used her imagination he could be anyone… It wasn’t how thisContinue reading “Chapter 2.05 – Kick Him Harder”

The movie that they had selected, Bloodthirsty Bunny, was promised to be a ‘gruesome romp throughContinue reading “Chapter 2.04 – First Date”
Chapter 2.03 – It Will Be Dark
Caleb returned to the motel room to find Melinda watching cartoons and Faith glaring at him. He stared at her and she stared back. “You look different,” he said, studying her. “Do I? How?” Faith scoffed after about thirty seconds of Caleb’s silence. “I’m missing about twenty inches of hair.” “Oh, yes. So you are.Continue reading “Chapter 2.03 – It Will Be Dark”
Chapter 2.02 – Forgot My Kidney
Note: drug references Lilith looked down at the heap of man that Seth had dumped on her doorstep. “Special delivery for Ms. Lilith Charlotte Vatore. Please sign here.” “And what exactly am I supposed to do with him?” “Vixen, has it been that long? You dine on him, of course. Do you remember where theContinue reading “Chapter 2.02 – Forgot My Kidney”
Chapter 2.01 – Embrace Disgrace
“Thanks for that, Bob. We’ll have more on the potential alien toddler invasion in Strangerville later, but first on to our top story. “The search continues for April Moss, 18, daughter of the late superstar Sandy Moss. It is believed that April is in the company of her two friends who are also missing; theyContinue reading “Chapter 2.01 – Embrace Disgrace”
Chapter 1.52 – Full of Holes
The first thing that struck Seth was that all the lights were off in the house. Despite having excellent night vision, Lilith always had lights on, even if there was no-one home. It made it look ‘lived in’, she would say. It didn’t matter that not a single soul ever passed here, she liked toContinue reading “Chapter 1.52 – Full of Holes”
Chapter 1.51 – Absolute Chaos
It had been a most satisfying night. As Seth lay back under the stars, satiated with what turned out to be a surprisingly succulent sanguinary experience with William Wangshaft, he admired again his new trophies; a kidney, as promised, for his feisty fledgling and a most unexpected memory. Will’s reel had mainly comprised of beer,Continue reading “Chapter 1.51 – Absolute Chaos”
Chapter 1.50 – Monumental Fuck Up
It had been a gruelling day with the police and the journalists and it was gone midnight when Chuck finally opened the door to their home.

There was only soContinue reading “Chapter 1.50 – Monumental Fuck Up”
Chapter 1.49 – Stay With Me
I had envisioned that I would make his acquaintance, ask him some questions, take my time. I’d learn all about vampires and make a solid decision, gradually befriending him and maybe, one day, asking him to turn me. I would be calm, rational, patient. Like most of my plans, it went totally bum up. “IContinue reading “Chapter 1.49 – Stay With Me”
Chapter 1.48 – Self-Destruct
Violence, suicidal thoughts, Will (collective groan) Joe looked up, expecting Caleb to take his usual chair by the fire, surprised when he took a seat at the bar. “Bad day?” “Just give me the bottle, Joe.” Joe clicked his tongue. “That would be irresponsible of me,” he said, pouring one glass. Caleb threw back hisContinue reading “Chapter 1.48 – Self-Destruct”
