What? Another Vampire story...


Okay... so I have never been a huge vampire fan.  I read an Anne Rice book or two when I was in college and I have seen a few vamp movies but I wouldn't say I was a fan.  

I am about 13,000 words into drafting my 'Light' book and a vampire story is untangling itself from my plot.  Actually a character, more specifically a name of a character is exiting and wants to tell his story.

I know, I know ...the last thing the world needs is another vampire story but I have to go with my flow.   My stories are less fantasy and more paranormal/metaphysical so this will be more about DNA/genetics and traveling between the dimensions.

My Vampire Rules:

This Vampire species had to leave their planet and Earth welcomed them.
You can be born Vampire or change into one.
Humans and Vampires can not reproduce.
Vampires can heal themselves so they are eternal. When they are ready to leave the body they do it consciously.
If a human chooses to become a Vampire they will loose all genetic/energetic  memory of their human family and friends.  Basically the Vampire rebirths you since your genetic make-up changes.  You don't even remember choosing to become a Vampire.

Tristan will be the main character and he will commit the ultimate sin...changing a Human without her permission.  This act could get him killed by the Council.

It's not like Claire didn't love him, she did, fiercely, but she did not want to lose her family connections.

Can Tristan get Claire to fall in love with him again before the Council catches up to him?  Only she can keep him from being Terminated.

There you have it...but it must wait until I am finished with 'Light'.
