Noah likes people watching, so when he notices a cute gay couple who don't seem to have a reflection, he's fascinated. They can't actually be vampires, can they?<br><br>As he learns more about the enthralling pair, he soon discovers his wild suspicion is more than correct. But Noah is hiding a secret of his own, and how could two men from decades or even centuries in the past possibly care, possibly understand, when they discover Noah wasn't always Noah?<br><br>That first hurdle is only the beginning, though. But Jack and Gabe are immortal vampires, so it's hardly surprising Noah isn't the only one who has a troublesome past.

Three of Hearts

When Jack finally lifted his head Noah was glad he was sitting down, because he suspected his legs wouldn’t have supported him otherwise. “God, that was amazing.”


Jack smiled, then bent his head again to kiss away the little trickle of blood that oozed from the double puncture mark on Noah’s neck. Noah sighed deeply, still pressing close to Jack, feeling something almost like an afterglow fill him after the intense experience.


“You can’t possibly be real,” murmured Noah, running his hands down Jack’s back.


“You would be hot as hell even if you weren’t a vampire. And for somebody who’s a hundred and four you’re being really understanding about my issues. You are all around amazing.”


“You flatter me.” Jack smiled. “I’m just doing the best I can.”


Noah smiled and sat back, though he still kept his arms around Jack. “Is it okay if I ask you a personal question?”


“Hah. We’ve discussed enough personal stuff already. Sure, go ahead.”
