Cole in his Stocking
It doesn't matter if he's been naughty or nice all year. Adam's stocking is still getting stuffed full of Cole, this Christmas.
The
coming of age for any vampire is cause for celebration, a time when
they first taste blood. For Cole, however, his twenty-fifth birthday
brings a terrible choice from his father—either he takes the life of
another to prove his worth, or he forfeits his own life. Cole chooses
the only way his heart will allow, and pays the price with both his
fangs and the rapidly mounting blood starvation that will slowly end his
life, now that his body needs to feed, but cannot. He escapes,
bleeding, barefoot, and wearing nothing more than a simple cotton
sleep-shirt. With his father's sentinels in pursuit, Cole soon finds
himself half-frozen and unable to run anymore. The last thing he expects
when he crawls into a dumpster to hide away for the last few hours of
his
life is to be rescued by a temperamental black cat and...aww hell...his
cherished one, Adam. How is Cole meant to blood-bond to the wolf hybrid
when his time is fast running out, and he has no fangs to even try? He
quickly learns his cherished is far more than he appears, though, and
Adam's friends at the Delta Rehabilitation Centre have even higher
friends, with a score to settle with his father, of their own. It's just
a shame he won't be around long enough to witness their payback.
