Here’s a snippet of my secondary WIP–a gay vampire Christmas story that I’m working on in between my main project sessions. In this snippet, Arthur, a proper Victorian nightwalker, is sniping at his assistant. She’s only trying to help, Arthur–
As she rises to get my drink for me, I mumble under my breath “Be thankful I’m not a Nosferatu.”
“I heard that.”
I sniff as she comes back with my brunch. “You’re just waiting for the time when I get tired of your attitude and snack on you instead, aren’t you?” I ask.
She shrugs as she sits down. “You already take your now and then nips, Arthur, but you’ll never drain me, not even close,” she answers. “I don’t have the proper equipment.”

Love the banter. She has him all worked out and isn’t taking any shit from him. Hope you post more from this one.

No she doesn’t–her name is Mimsy, by the way 🙂 I tend not to write my “Renfields” as crazed lunatics, but genuine helpers. Thanks for the nice words, and maybe I’ll post a little bit more in my blog tomorrow 🙂
