In his first year in Los Angeles, Angel, the vampire with a soul, came across an inter-dimensional hunter named Jhiera. The seductive woman was only trying to protect other females in her culture from being stripped of their emotions -- intense feelings that gave them dominance over men. Angel fell victim to her heat, but Jhiera had to return to her own dimension.

Now she's back, and Angel is astonished to see Jhiera again...and to have the same feelings for her come rushing to the surface. But Jhiera's in L.A. on official business: She's on the hunt for a young woman who may be the key to unleashing an inter-dimensional war -- a war led by a powerful sorcerer determined to free China's terra-cotta army of fierce samurai from their long imprisonment.

In Sunnydale, Buffy Summers is back from the dead and is casting about in her new life -- as school counselor, guardian of Dawn, best friend, keeper of Spike's sanity, and, of course, as Slayer -- hoping to find something, anything, that will give her back that feeling of fulfillment she deeply craves. A demonic army with a dragon at its head is so not what she needs right now....

I must oblige...

We kiss. Juices mingling, his skin hot against mine. I kiss his cheek, then down to a warm neck. Lips brush velvet skin, tongue tracing a moist line along the pulsing heaven of an artery buried beneath. A hoarse whisper escapes his throat, begging for more. Does he know what he asks? I think not, but who would want to disappoint such a needy, yearning being?....not I...

I pull back, drowning in the heady scent of lust and lifeforce. The draw is too strong though, I cannot fight it, do not want to if truth be told.

A Mind of Darkness (poem des Nocturnal Night)

I'm turning away from thy light
and lay myself into blackest night
I adore the sleepless nights
awe this endless death
A view of creation are a view of Illusion
this synopsis of sublife
a start from mud
But here I'm as anyone a part in this play
of neverending lives
of remembering it all over again
Hail to endless night away from the ugliness of the sun
showing the ugly new world growing here
all around us
A world taking away personality and human contact
a frozen lake of endless tears
and in endless pain
