The
Vampire's Curse: Life Eternal
by
J.G. Gatewood
Genre:
Adult Urban Fantasy
There's
no other way to say it; cancer is a bitch. When I was fifteen,
Doctor's diagnosed me with a rare brain tumor and gave me five years
to live. With my death imminent, I made a deal with the Devil. Well,
not the real Devil, but one of his minions for sure. Out of options,
I accepted an offer for eternal life. I agreed to become a vampire.
And all I had to offer in exchange was one year of service to a Duke
named Aldric. What is one year in the grand scheme of things?
Especially, when I'd live forever.
Now,
two years later, I have a different view of vampires. I live in the
shadows and have no contact with any of my friends or family. I hate
what I've become and If I could go back and do it all over again, I
would. To make matters worse, Aldric is summoning me for my one year
of service. When I refuse, they hunt me like an animal. I'm run over
by a car and witness my mother's death at the hands of Aldric's
minions. No one stands up to-let alone refuses-Aldric, but enough is
enough. I can't live like this. I'm always watching over my shoulder,
and fear each new person I meet is on a mission to kill me. This is
not a second lease on life; its torture and the only way it will end
is if I kill Aldric. It's time for him to die.

GUEST POST
Are
your characters based off real people or did they all come entirely
from your imagination?
Most
of my characters are completely fictional. I usually get an idea for
a story and then build the character from there. I do pull
characteristics from people I know, but I usually just grab pieces
from many and combine them to create the character. With that being
said, I have had four people specifically ask me to make a character
based on them. In those situations, I do my best to capture their
personality on paper, and so far, they’ve all been happy.
