A vampire hunter who is born into The Faith, a cult that preaches purity and hatred for vampires, Luke's newest mission is to capture a half-vampire in his town. He starts working at a bar in New Orleans to get familiar with local nightlife, and there he meets Abel.

Abel, with his bright hazel eyes and dimples that frame his smile, wedges himself in the middle of Luke's mission. He's everything that The Faith hates: he drinks casually, his ears are pierced, and he's not shy about making his affections for Luke clear. His relaxed attitude is like a magnet to Luke.

After wearing Luke down, Abel persuades Luke to hang out at his apartment, where he introduces him to his brother. The sight of him shocks Luke: he's a dead-ringer for the half-vampire he's hunting.

Knowing that Abel's brother is his prey, Luke is torn between fulfilling his mission for The Faith and his fear of losing what he has with Abel.

The FAITH

"Did you know that guy?" Luke asked in a hushed voice as they walked back to the van. 


Luke's mouth set in a hard line and he hesitated to answer.


They got into the van with the solemn John and Rob. Tension thickened the air, but Luke's confusion got the best of him and he thought that John might have an answer for him.


"Hey, John?" Luke asked as John started the car.


John met his eye in the rearview mirror.


"That drugstore down there—" He pointed to the shabby corner building. "Are they affiliated with The Faith?" 


"No, I've never heard of that place," John said.


He shifted his legs uncomfortably and pointedly avoided Rob in his peripheral vision. "They had a picture of my father on the wall." 


Rob let out a quiet scoff, and Dillon turned around in the front to look at him in confusion.
