A vampire's heart only beats for one reason—one person. When Denton's dead heart starts thumping at the first sight of Orion, he can't believe it. But Orion, a shy, sheltered, submissive wolf, is more of a challenge than anticipated. But Denton hasn't come this far by being a quitter, and he's certainly not giving up when his mate is involved.
When Mell Eight was in high school, she discovered dragons. Beautiful, wondrous creatures that took her on epic adventures both to faraway lands and on journeys of the heart. Mell wanted to create dragons of her own, so she put pen to paper. Mell Eight is now known for her own soaring dragons, as well as for other wonderful characters dancing across the pages of her books. While she mostly writes paranormal or fantasy stories, she has been seen exploring the real world once or twice.

This was a full bodied short story that was sweet but packed punch. Denton is a vampire with heart...err silent heart that is, until he meets Orien, a wolf shifter. You think this is just going to be another sweet love story, but are soon awakened to the fact it is not. Danger lurks and Denton must let go of his own gentle ways if he wants to protect himself and Orien. Excellent vampire story.
Great short, works well in the limited time that is given. Things move quickly but the chemistry is a lot of fun and the circumstances to bring the two together are both sweet and simple, and intense and dramatic. Great read!
