Bruised Pair

by Bt. Hearst, Crimson Chains (Illustrator)

NO WEAPON FORGED AGAINST HIM HAS EVER SUCCEEDED.

Desperate to put an end to centuries' worth of boredom, Laurian seeks out a book that should not exist—one with no title, no author, and rumors of unimaginable power. When a mortal scientist named Wilfred intercepts the book, the two of them come to a terse agreement: a willing test subject in exchange for shared results.

Striking fear into a vampyre's heart is no easy task, but Wilfred knows of other ways to get a man's blood pumping—whether he be alive or undead.

BRUISED PAIR is a queer, erotic short with a human/vampire relationship.

Wahhhh, Bt. Hearst's writing is seriously so gosh dang beautiful. It's absolutely ELEGANT, like every word and phrase it set down with specific purpose and paints a picture so vividly. I can't get enough of it!! This was a very interesting and mysterious short story, with some blood letting getting kinky. Amazing!!
