    About this ebook

    This is the short novella prequel to the book, Blair.

    Blair is a nurse in one of New York City’s grittiest neighborhoods. Day in and day out, she works to save the lives of as many as she can. Call it atonement… for the crimes of her ancestors. Because Blair is not just a nurse. She’s not even just a witch and a member of a powerful coven.

    She’s also half-vampire. Without pure blood, Blair cannot be allowed to use her magic, and she is determined not to use her powers as a vampire to prey on those weaker than herself. So for years, she has passed as a human in order to save as many lives as she can. After all, when your father is Vlad the Impaler,  there’s a certain amount of debt you  owe the world.

    But something dark is moving in the city, and it will take everything Blair has not to unleash her powers on it and be damned forever…

      Chapter 1

      I took the stairs up from the subway stop two at a time and pushed myself into a sprint—or as much of one as I could manage with a purse and a tray of cupcakes. I was going to be late for work, and I still had to stop for food. I was starving, and when I get overly hungry...

      Well, let’s just say I don’t let myself get overly hungry. I pounded over the plaza to the side door of the hospital and swiped my card twice. It never works in the rain, and it always seems to be raining when I’m late. Go figure. Yanking the door open with a very unladylike curse, I slipped down the hallway and grimaced at the way my shoes squelched on the linoleum. I needed not to be drawing attention to myself just now.

      At the door of the blood bank, I stopped. I was already going to be late, but I needed to do this. Checking to make sure no one was in the hallway, I opened the door and peered inside.

      Hello?

      Silence; no one was in there. Good. I walked purposefully to the correct rack, took two bags of O-neg, and slipped them into my purse. Still absurdly carrying the tray of cupcakes—it was Alicia’s birthday, and I’d promised to bring them—I went out of the room and into one of the lesser-used bathrooms.

      I was shaking with hunger now, lights flashing at the corner of my vision. My senses were heightened, and I knew that if I didn’t get food in my soon, it would only get worse. Trust me, being in a hospital is hell on someone with heightened senses. Still trembling, I double-checked the door, pulled one of the bags of blood out of my purse, pierced the plastic, and drank deeply.

      Did I forget to mention that I’m a half-vampire? Sorry, but that was sort of by design. It’s not something I tell...well, most people. Of course, most people wouldn’t believe it, but in my experience, it’s not them you have to be worried about. No, the people you have to be worried about are the ones who know what being a half-vampire means—though that half isn’t precisely the dangerous half in
