WARNING: Please be aware that there is sexual material in this work and if you are not comfortable with that please DO NOT READ! Mariah is a spunky reporter, who's family caters to the vampire world of Genoa City. Tessa's an enforcer for the Vampire High Council, in Genoa City to clean up a mess. But will a dark secret from Tessa's past get Mariah killed. Or will Tessa's love be enough to save her. This story and outline were put together by myself and Bmaglyn13, but the writing was me. Though she did read through it and suggest some changes. She also designed the cover. Please know that this is planned out for 10 chapters, and I'm taking care and time to write each one. The introduction is not one of the ten chapters, but it contains information pertinent to the storyline.
