" I felt the presence of the night all about me: a living, breathing entity, whispering soft words against my flesh. I had never before felt the silken touch of the night caress me as I did now. It was a frightening, yet exhilarating experience. It was as if the night itself were attempting to seduce me. "
― Rhiannon Frater , The Tale of the Vampire Bride (Vampire Bride, #1)
