The world has ended, and most of Earth's human population has been wiped out. Soon only vampires will be left, but that's a problem in itself. What will they eat? Who will they hunt? Nori and her new lover, Milo, are going to save the planet: so they can devour it.

"The first day passes, and she's the only thought taking up space in my mind. I have to remind myself to keep the fury burning, to not let it cool into acceptance. It's not about her. It's not about me, either. It's about them. My family. They shouldn't have gone out like that. I've got to do something about it. If I have to choose between my faith or action, I've made my decision which side I'll come down on. My faith wasn't solid ground anyway. Years of war have worn away at it."

My Vampire Nurse

I have a hard time letting Milo go, letting him grow into the vampire he’s destined to become. I do feel the need to hover, to protect, to manage, though I’d never admit it to him. He’s had enough of that for a lifetime, and he’s not even technically alive. He’s a fledgling, not a child, and his status as such probably won’t last too long. Since his one slip up, he hasn’t let himself off his leash during any hunts. He wants his control to be beyond reproach, and since that first feed, it has been. It’s a bit eerie, in fact. Fledglings are like human teenagers, prone to moods, to unending hunger, to bursts of inexplicable energy. He hasn’t allowed himself any of it.
