Threads of Crimson

An ancient vampire who stopped needing anyone. A struggling human who refuses to be intimidated by him. An attraction neither of them expected.

Benji needs money. Selling his blood at The Velvet Vein wasn’t exactly the plan. Neither was becoming fascinated by the ancient vampire everyone else seems to know better than to approach.
Lysandro Moretti doesn’t do attachments. He feeds. He leaves. He certainly doesn’t return week after week because one fearless human with a love of useless facts keeps waiting for him.
Until he does.
Then another vampire corners Benji, and Lysandro’s legendary restraint snaps.
One rescue, one heated encounter, and one very possessive ancient vampire later, Benji finds himself leaving The Velvet Vein with the most dangerous man in the room.

Lysandro insists he’s only keeping Benji safe, but Benji knows better. The vampire who claims he doesn’t need anyone keeps looking at him like he’s already his.
