Miari went to her basement during the day. Only during the day. Even in the cover of darkness, this one was too weak to do anything during the day. Wasn’t her first catch. Her first study. But it was a curious thing, the discipline in this one. No blood hunger at all. St least not…

Nathan had been staring at that map all his life and it just didn’t make sense. Why in the hell would something be marked in such a dead zone. It was basically the middle of the desert but even with GPS, there was no way to tell what, if anything, was there. He leaned back…
