The plot thickens as a succubus enters the story.
As I
glanced at the people around me, I spied a blonde haired, woman wearing a low-cut,
strapless, violet gown, staring at Nessa. Her pale face looked as if sunlight
had never touched it. I wondered what was going on.
“Why is
that woman looking at you so intently?”
“Because I
am a threat to her,” she said, returning the woman's gaze.
“How so?” What's going on, I wondered.
“She's a
succubus who has subjugated the man with her. She’s afraid I might expose her.”
“I thought
succubi and incubi were creatures of myth.” I gulped. “Besides, aren’t they
supposed to be incorporeal beings that come to their victims in the night?” One
moment we enjoyed our intimacy, the next we discussed demonology about a woman
not twenty feet away.
“They can
only manifest themselves if they ingest enough energy. Even then, they usually
maintain a solid state for short periods of time. Look at the man she’s with.
See how white he is. His pallor is not from lack of sunlight. She’s drained a
substantial portion of his life energy.”
“That's
Harry, an acquaintance of mine. Is there something you can do to save him?” How
could he have gotten himself entangled with a demon?
“I can kill
her. Even so, he might never be the same.”
“Is she
dangerous to you?”
“Hardly.
She can't possibly hurt me." The tone of her laugh chilled me.
“What are
you going to do?”
“I'm going
to tell her to leave him or I will destroy her.”
I still
found it difficult to accept her lethal potential. Despite her grace and
elegant allure, she was a powerful vampire. When she took a few steps forward,
the woman whispered to Harry and they exited the garden.
Nessa
turned to me and smiled, as if nothing unusual had happened.
Unholy Embrace is a swift paced,
action-packed novel about the relationship between a mortal man and his
immortal female vampire lover as they fight werewolves, vampires, and other
creatures in their effort to kill a soul eating demon.
