Crimson Tree Publishing is proud to present Burning Nights, the sixth book in The Ancient Fire Series by Julie Wetzel.
After a wedding filled with werewolves, fay, and vampires, Vicky is looking forward to a nice, quiet honeymoon away from the chaos of Darien’s daily life. But nothing is ever simple with an Ancient Vampire around.
When the Vampire Council of Hawaii finds out Darien and his new bride are coming, they are determined to see that Darien is honored properly. But vampire etiquette isn’t for the faint of heart.
The nights could burn when lines are drawn… and Darien finds himself in a turf war he never intended to start.
Excerpt:
“Oh,” Kusanagi called,
stopping Darien before he could get out of the room. “By the way,
you have two days to remove yourself from my island before you
violate your visitation rights. And since you did not formally
request permission to stay, I expect you to be gone.” He lowered
his face and glared at Darien from below his brow as he went on. “If
you choose to remain, I’ll take it as an act of war and I’ll have
full rights to deal with you as I see fit.”
Darien met his glare with
one of his own, but did not respond. Biting his tongue, he turned and
left through the sliding door. The squeaking of the floor irritated
him more as he stomped his way to the car with Mano hot on his heels.
“Keys!” Darien snapped holding out his hand.
Mano dropped the car keys
into Darien’s palm without question.
Climbing into the driver’s
seat of the black sedan, Darien jammed the key into the ignition and
took off without waiting for Mano to get in on the other side of the
car. He needed some time away from everyone to cool off and think
about what to do. He glared at the confession still crushed in his
hand before crumpling it more and throwing it down on the passenger’s
seat.
That sheet of paper took
most of the bite out of his threat to call the Great Council. And
Kusanagi’s smugness had shown he knew it. They may reprimand the
man for not allowing Darien to take his justice properly, but with a
signed confession they probably wouldn’t look very deep into the
matter. Especially since Vicky had lived. Had Vicky died, they would
have torn the Hawaiian Council apart to make sure the right person
was punished.
Darien drew in slow, even
breaths as he made his way back to the hotel. As he got his temper
back under control, he decided on a course of action. He’d call the
Great Council and report the offense. With Kusanagi’s background,
they might take a harder look at the situation, but Darien doubted
it. Then, after he had reported Kusanagi, he was going to gather
Vicky up and get the hell out of there. This whole trip had gone from
bad to worse, and the only way to keep things from escalating was to
leave. Maybe in a hundred years, when things had settled down and
their kids were grown, he might think about trying this again. Then
again, probably not. Island hospitality wasn’t what it was cracked
up to be.
