Greenville Vampires

It's Christmas Eve, and Mila Bernabe has nowhere to be, no one to see. So when her handsome customer needs his order delivered, she offers to do it, even if it's not in her job description. It's only when she pulls up to his dark and foreboding mansion that she realizes she might be in over her head. Now, like Alice, who fell into Wonderland, Mila is about to enter a strange world, unlike anything she's ever experienced before. This short story was originally published in the multi-author anthology, Holiday Bite (now out of print)!

A vampire, a witch, a pirate ship, and a kraken… The vampirates of the Blood Queen have discovered their prized pet-a kraken-has been disturbed. Time is of the essence, and they must find a witch who can calm the beast. Will Quartermaster Haskel Huntsman be able to keep his word and return Cicely to her home once the task is complete? Or will she be unable to leave once she steps on board?

Can Zephyr blow away the darkness in Elda's life? Or will their families convince them that fae and vampire must remain apart? Elda is a vampire enforcer, having served her family for millennia. Stoic in nature, she's never found anyone who's stirred her emotions like the pixie barista at her favorite café does. Zephyr is half fae, half wolf-shifter, and she's lived her life like any other paranormal creature until she meets Elda. She knows the vampire is her mate, but it's forbidden. She tries to hold off on her attraction but can only deny fate for so long. Zeph's fae council is convinced that a vampire will drain any fae they can get their hands on, but Zeph is ready to challenge that thinking and prove that true love between light and dark can exist. Zeph believes in her, but Elda doesn't know if she does. What if there is a darkness inside of her that can't be controlled if she lets herself have a moment of bliss with a fae?
