Tangled Moon: Part One …He lifted her slight body into his arms, recoiling at his father’s scent on her. At least his brothers hadn’t touched her. If they had, she’d have a hell of a lot more than shock to recover from. His brothers liked to use a beautiful woman for more than her blood.…

Tangled Moon: Part Seven …“So,” she really needed to start a sentence with anything other than, so, “they must have known, somehow, that I existed, and then used me to get at you, since I can’t exactly turn into hundreds of rats and get away.” It took him some time. Finally, quietly, “Yes.” She felt…

Tangled Moon: Part Six She took another sip, then looked at her plate and decided to set aside her glass for a fork. She took a bite, not really tasting it, swallowed. “What do you want to know?” he asked. “I don’t know quite where to start. How about, damn, there are vampires?” He smiled.…

Tangled Moon: …Catherine came slowly awake. She blinked up at a high ceiling that didn’t look anything like her apartment. It was too pretty; edged with fancy trim.
