A Vampire Virtuoso, a Faery Prince, and a slew of heinous murders.I have promenaded down the streets and avenues of New Orleans for two hundred years.

I have no time for a tryst and certainly no need for anything more, but he is wrapped into every aspect of our faery drama, and his ocean blue eyes haunt my every step.
