A Vampire’s Fate
Goodreads / Amazon / Barnes & Noble / iBooks / Kobo / Other Retailers -- EXCERPT: So, you’ll let her fight?” His brother Griff asked. “Calvaire! No.” Ren jolted with dread at the idea of Rosalie facing that brute Bouchard in combat. “I’m the one who should fight this trial. I’m the Gauthiers’ protector, not just her husband.” “Shit, man,” Cass suddenly lifted a concerned brow as he set his drink aside. “This is your wedding night. Shouldn’t you be with her right now?” “I’m sleeping on the couch.” “Dude.” Cass shot him a pained expression. “Yeah,” he rasped as longing took hold of him. His breathing deepened and he imagined how he could slide between his sheets next to her enticing body and explore every curve he should be calling his. Take her as she cried his name in the depth of passion. “So, you haven’t…” Griff started. “Never?” “No.” He cleared his throat and dug his nails into his palm, not wanting to discuss the matter further. “Don’t you want to, though,” Griff said. “She’s quite attractive.” “Dude, she’s his wife.” “Well, apparently not,” Griff retorted. “Not in that sense, no,” Ren huffed. “Why the hell not?” Griff picked the crushed can from the deck and passed it to Cass who had started to pick up the empty drinks. “Well,” Ren started, “first I barely know her. And second, she has a boyfriend.” “Ex,” Cass corrected, dropping the dead beer cans into the brown paper bag marked with the logo of the Fortins’ grocery store. “Whatever,” Ren said. “So, you two will just like, live together. But…nothing?” Griff asked. “That’s the plan,” Ren acknowledged. “This is a fake marriage. We’ll just divorce in a couple of years.” “Fucking messed-up plan,” Griff smirked. “Yeah.” Ren shrugged hopelessly. “Some honeymoon.”
