Widow Maker - The city lay shrouded in the distance, looming like a fragile virgin clothed in white. The year was 2785. Vincent’s keen eyesight cut through the fog, singeing over the towering steel buildings like a guided laser. He was searching for something lost, something that he would probably never reclaim. continue

The Haunted House - "Over here, I tell you! The coffin is over here!" Mona rolled her eyes up at Frank. Idiot. He was acting if he'd found the secret entrance in the wall rather than her. She had a good mind to turn back and let Frank stand his chances of being sacrificed by the coven of she-male vampires that inhabited the dungeon of the castle. . . . continue

The Crying Veil - Anna's eyes widened in terror as the wedding veil she had situated on her head was suddenly covered with blood - drops of blood. She detected crying, pitiful crying as if someone in her head were in agony.... continue

Mother Minnie & the Vampire Next Door

As if on cue, he told his mother, "I regret to inform you that we just cannot allow you to continue in this unsafe state. As we speak, we are arranging to have you transferred to a very nice home so that you will be cared for day and night. There is nothing that you will want for, mother."

Minnie grazed him with a heated look, barely managing to keep her tongue in check as she drawled, "Nothing except my home."

She knew in her heart of hearts that Sam and Yvonne had been planning something, but she wasn't quite sure what. And now she could see that she had played right into their hands when she had boasted about her cherished neighbor - a lovely vampire who appeared to truly care about her. She sure cared deeply about him. A handsome man with a kind heart was a rare thing indeed - vampire or not!

Sam swallowed hard, perhaps feeling a morsel of guilt over painting his loving mother into a corner. Why couldn't she see what was best for her? Perhaps Yvonne had been wrong about the home. Maybe it might be best to allow his mother to live out her days here. Moving her into a home would certainly kill her spirits, if not her very soul.

But as he looked towards his beautiful wife who had promised him so many things, when his mother asked, "How long do I have here?" he then answered, "Just tonight. We will collect you in the morning and take you to the home. You will like it, I'm certain."

Minnie nodded, then rose from the sofa. "Then you must both leave so I will have time to prepare for the move. There will be some things that I will want to take with me."

Sam and Yvonne shared another look, only Minnie noticed that this time it was flavored with raw shock.

"I-I never assumed you would be so-so condescending, Mother Minnie," Yvonne blurted out, unable to express her shock and good-fortune.

"Then let it be a lesson to the both of you," Minnie told them, ushering them to the door and noting through the window glass that the sun was swiftly setting in the western sky. "When one gets old, they often lose their voice. And when one gets old, they don't have the stamina to fight against the waves that threaten."

The Rat Within - The flame of the candle flickered through the darkened hole of a window, the only evidence that the tiny cottage was occupied. Mammoth-sized rats had slowly eaten their way through the thatched roof, allowing the elements of nature to steal inside. continue

Vampire Show-Stopper, Let the Show Begin - Buck had buckteeth.

Zen snarled as he viewed him standing on stage, looking like an overgrown Texas jackrabbit! What had possessed Henry to choose this ugly boy for the part? continue

Beauty is Only Skin Deep - The Hound & the Fox was THE popular place to be for hair styling, massages, and body wraps. Zelda’s two-year success story was phenomenal, turning a run-down cottage into a booming business, and going it alone at that. continue

The Old Bat - Kate didn’t walk as straight as she used to. Old age had settled in, and along with it a case of painful arthritis. She felt a bit like the large city she had become embedded inside; lost, lonely, ancient. It hadn’t been that way eighty years ago when her family had settled here. She had been ten, and the city had been enjoying its infancy. continue

Please Won't You be My Neighbor - Neighbors. Drake Jones suddenly regretted moving to the suburbs. It wasn’t a good place for vampires to live, and he was paying dearly for that mistake. continue

Code of the Fang - Hot, deserted, evil-ridden desert! What had possessed him to hole up in Texas? continue

The Day of Death - A witch grants an old man three wishes. continue

The Vampire & The Cowboy - He had ridden so far, so long, that Jack's thighs still smelled of smoked leather from the saddle that sat astride his twenty-year old mare, Ladonya. And the horse wasn't happy about the extended ride. She had been blowing through her nostrils at him for the last ten minutes, the last gust a gnat's ass from Jack's ear. continue

The Ethnic Vampire Wars -A thick layer of fog lay captive in the valley below the castle. It was the Ethnic Vampire Wars. continue

Fashion Statement - Vampires - Vincent revolved his dark head slightly, moving his eyes mysteriously over the crowd. They loved him, without a doubt. His popularity was certainly nothing to scoff about. But would they love him still, if they knew that he was a vampire? continue

Pretty In Pick - “Right here – pile it on right cheer,” the hick told Qieu, pointing his half-full fork of spaghetti to his plate. continue

Goat's Pine al la Mode - Goat lived in a valley that was sparsely clothed with pines, red cedars, and sumac that turned a vivid red each autumn. As so was the season, for autumn had settled in for a brief visit that soon would welcome winter. continue

Sweet Tooth, Sweet Fangs - Quinn studied the box of chocolates, finding them irresistible. continue

Vampire Online - Jewel entered the chatroom, settling in for a relaxing night of frivolous chatter. The chats were always entertaining, and a pretty brainless way to chill out for the evening. continue

Oh, My Aching Fang! - “Ouch! Don’t touch it! Get away from me, you old sawbones!”

“Quit being such a baby,” Monique hissed, her beautiful pale face mere inches from Sandar's. “Well, it’s settled, dear. You’re going to need a dentist.” continue

Vampire For Hire - It wasn’t easy, obtaining a decent night job. In the first place, not many businesses were willing to do interviews for the night slots during the late evening hours, after the sun went down. Being a vampire, that was the only time when Jase could face the world – during the dark of night, that is. continue
