Massive earthquakes have caused vampires to come out of hiding and vow to protect the inhabitants of towns in exchange for blood.
During a town meeting, secretary Misty offers herself up as a blood donor to the vampire who protects the town she lives in. She figures it a one time deal, but she discovers the good people of the town she was raised in used her as a willing sacrifice to make the vampire, Ivan, happy.
Ivan wants Misty for more than just her blood. He wants her in his bed and to submit to his seductions. He forces the issues at first (I mean waking to find yourself tied to a bed and then not having a lot of say about moving forward suggests force), but Misty soon finds she's enjoying her time with Ivan and she once she finds out she was given to him by the people she was trying to impress, she vows to stay with him.
I couldn't connect with either of the characters in this one. Maybe it's because it was so short and we had to jump right to the meat of the story. I don't know. This just a story that engaged me at all.
