    Summary

    Russia gritted his teeth behind his ever present smile as his eyes caught the movement on the other side of the conference table. As usual, he was by himself, sitting on one end, with two empty seats beside him. There were more seats than nations at the meeting, allowing the other countries to pick and choose. 

    They all chose to keep away. 

    No matter.

    Summary

    Standing before the tall ornate mirror hanging from the wall of his opulent private chambers, Barok van Zieks faces himself and shudders. Beneath at least three layers of expensive, expertly pressed, exquisite garments, carefully worn with the utmost call for modesty and propriety, lies the biggest secret of the tired prosecutor's life.

    A secret he is all but certain has already cracked apart, dangerous in the hands of others far more careless and insufferable than he.

    After becoming a vampire, Barok van Zieks learned to resist his desire for human blood. His pledge not to bite anyone was an easy vow to keep, one he never felt tempted to break.

    At least until the foreign lawyer came to London, and Barok's craving for his blood became impossible to resist.
