Summary
Carlisle has been thoroughly ashamed of his nature since the moment a pang of hunger jolted him awake in some London back alley. He has spent every moment since trying to atone for his existence. Though he is satisfied most days, he is even more ashamed - even more terrified - of the specific, gnawing bloodlust that follows dark-haired backwoodsmen.
Somehow still reeling from the loss of his wife 20 years ago, Charlie Swan realizes he's also managed to lose his only daughter. Frantic to explain the sudden and bizarre turn of events that ripped Bella from him, Charlie decides to risk losing what little he has left by playing investigator. But vampiric laws have powerful enforcers, and there might be good reason for Charlie to stay in the dark.
tldr: Carlisle's gay ass is so repressed that attraction and bloodlust are tied inexorably. Charlie gets closer to Carlisle and finds more there than answers.
