THE BILLIONAIRE VAMPIRE ROMANCE
I’ve loved Kendall Jason for eleven years—through mergers, moves, and midnight calls that always ended too abruptly. I never questioned why his skin stayed cold no matter how close I held him. Why he only ate garlic-free meals. Why our bed was always empty by 2 a.m. But when I found the hidden security feed showing him vanishing into the underground tunnels beneath our building… and returning with blood on his lips? That’s when I realized: the man I’m engaged to doesn’t sleep at night. He hunts.I wasn’t supposed to be awake. But insomnia had me scrolling through the home security app at 3:17 a.m.—and there he was. Kendall. My fiancé. Stepping out of the service elevator in the basement garage, his white shirt splattered with something dark. Not wine. Too thick. Too red.
He moved like liquid shadow, heading for the black sedan. I zoomed in. His mouth… it was stained. And his eyes—reflecting the dim light like a cat’s. My breath froze. Then the screen glitched. When it came back, he was gone.
I checked the logs. No entry. No exit. Just a gap from 2:48 to 3:22. Like the system erased him.
My hands shook as I pulled up the file Elias Grant—some guy Kendall paid weekly for ‘consulting.’ His address led to a shuttered clinic in Queens. Abandoned. But the front door was smeared with fresh blood.
Now I’m standing here, staring at the knife block in our kitchen. Do I confront him when he gets back? Run while I still can? Or follow the trail to whatever hell he’s hiding?
