Enjoy a snippet from last week: Flowers and Fangs, Chapter 5 #
This week's snippet more from Flowers and Fangs, which is a RONE Finalist for best New Adult tale! Thank you so much to those who voted. This couldn't have happened without you. Now for the second round–the judges will read the stories. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Chapter 5. This is in Sloane's POV.
Quick update from last week: Sloane just clobbered Derek in the head with a coffee cup. In her defense, he told her vampires are real, threatened to stake her, then claimed he wants to save her. What would you do?
We're skipping ahead a few paragraphs in Chapter 5. Derek has gone after Sloane and she's trying to open the gate and escape...

She threw the lock on the ground. Her hand held the handle, but before she could unlatch it, she was tackled to the ground.
She struggled and managed to knee her captor. She was rewarded with a grunt, but the guy's arms were made of iron and his grip didn't falter.
"Let me go," she demanded.
"Derek?" another man's voice called from the direction of the house.
Her movements stilled for a moment then she frantically struggled again. If there were two of them, her chances of escape were becoming slimmer.
"Stop it," Derek hissed in her ear as he clamped a hand over her mouth.
He knew this man who called to him, but for some reason he didn't want to reveal his location.

Derek Hayes and his family are preternatural hunters. Stake and dust is their motto, but Derek has a difficult time accepting his sworn duty when Sloane McBride, his ex-girlfriend from high school, is the one he's been sent to eliminate. Once infected from a Nosferatu bite, there is no turning back. Sloane has been bitten and she will eventually change.

Stake and Dust, Book I- These are stand alone stories. (ONLY 99¢)
A Lamia, a sea creature worthy of John Keats' prose, teams up with a vampire with serial tendencies. When young promising artists are found dead, the Preternatural Bureau sends Cassandra Hayes to the Hamptons to help a fellow hunter track down this lethal duo. She's only spoken to Mr. Green once on the phone and when she meets him in person, he is not what she expects. His hunting skills are spot on, but there is something the man is hiding, and she's determined to find out what it is despite the attraction developing between them.
Tremayne Graystone, a vampire from one of the oldest septs, is not pleased when he finds a dead hunter left on the doorstep of his pub. He should have never answered the hunter's phone, but someone is trying to frame him and he wants answers. Surely he can masquerade as Mr. Green, the hunter Cassandra is supposed to meet, before she figures out his true identity and stakes him. She's a Hayes, from a long line of vampire hunters, and fraternizing with the enemy is simply not done, but as they work together and follow the clues, the lines become blurred when he falls for the hunter's charms.
