Joleene Naylor is the author of the glitter-less Amaranthine vampire universe, a world where vampires aren't for children. Comprised of a main series, a standalone prequel, and several short story collections, she has plans to continue expanding with a trilogy and standalone novels. 
In her spare time, Joleene is a freelance book cover designer and for-fun photographer. She maintains several blogs, full of odd ramblings, and occasionally updates her website at JoleeneNaylor.com. In what little time is left, she watches anime, plays PokemonGo, and works on her crooked Victorian house in Villisca, Iowa. Between her husband, family, and pets, she is never lonely, in fact, quite the opposite. Should she disappear, one might look for her on a beach in Tahiti, sipping a tropical drink and wearing a disguise. 

Pulled into a world of darkness, Katelina's fate becomes intertwined with that of Jorick, a dark, enigmatic vampire. To stay by his side, she must navigate intrigue, terror and bloodshed as they are drawn from one battle to another. Dreams of peace seem elusive, and are complicated by mysterious vampires, old relics, and an ancient master. Join Katelina and Jorick in a world where vampires don't sparkle and night is eternal.

Fethillen landed the helicopter in a snowy field outside of the city. The engines stayed on and the rotors whirred overhead, even as she walked back to the cargo area. Katelina caught Jorick's eye, but he didn't comment.


"We wish to remain undetected, so we will part ways with you here," Fethillen shouted over the noise of the engines and rotors. "We have two hours until sunrise. That should be enough time for you to get to the Birlik. You have official titles. You can use these to seek accommodations and ask questions. Of course, you will not mention us." 


It was an order, not a question, and Katelina expected Jorick to tell her to get bent. Instead he nodded. 


Fethillen added, "If all goes well we will meet tomorrow night. If not, it is hard to say."


In other words there was a chance they might abandon them? Though Katelina wasn't fond of the Black Vigil, she didn't like the idea of being left behind.
