I leave the bar leaving my beautiful wife behind to keep investigating her friend. I cannot take this much longer, being away from her is killing me slowly. As a vampire, being without my mate is going to cause me to die prematurely. We need to find a way to end this soon, no matter how we have to end it. I hated to send her away, but she was the only one that could do this. We, the few council members who know we are still married, thought this was the perfect cover. When the decision was made to send in my wife to uncover Jules' atrocities, it broke my heart into a thousand pieces. She, on the other hand, took the mission like a chance to prove herself. She wants the authority to see her differently and to know that she is worthy of being with me. It is not her that needs to prove anything. I will never feel like I deserve her or her love. She has always been loyal to the authority and should not have to do this for them to honor our marria

The Auction Just a little drama among vampires
Jules POVI go into the city looking for Jamie. Frenchman was not much help at all, or maybe he just not want to help me. I have a feeling he is working with Lester. I know he is hiding something from me, but I am not sure what just yet. He has not been the same to me since I was thrown out of the authority years ago. I could care less what he thinks or anyone else in the authority, but I need to find Jamie. I only need to find Jamie before he decides to start talking about things he knows nothing about. The little bastard better keep his mouth shut. He does not want me to shut it for him. I have to find him first.I spot Renae and Tara in a bar on Royale. They are coming out with a drink in each hand. I need Renae to help me. Hell, Lester will never help me. Lester will hang me. I know he has Jamie and I know Renae is helping him. So, why in the hell would she or Lester help me?"Where are you two headed with both all that liquor?" I ask
The Auction New Orleans
Tatina and I arrive in the French Quarter, which she once loved, but now is overshadowed by bad memories. Maybe I can help her make new memories. Memoires of the night we were married, not memories of Craig and the things he did to her. We were closer than I let on to Lester; it is none of his business where we are, and I really do not want him to know that we are already here in Louisana. Lester called right as Tatina said I do, perfect timing. It makes me wonder if he knew we were here, which is another reason I did not tell him where we are precisely. So much for my promise to keep her out of New Orleans. I feel like I lied to her, and that is the last thing I want to do. I don't want him knowing our whereabouts these days. We have tried to keep our profile as low as possible since we started busting up the auctions. Plus, I still have to worry about Dominque. I never did get that bastard after he arrested me and took everything I worked so hard for;
The Auction She is missing
Lester Dufrene POVI am sitting at the bar where I am supposed to meet the love of my life, Renae. I should have pulled her out of this a long time ago. I was stupid for letting this go on as long as it did. Who am I kidding? She wanted to help. She hated the auctions, even the legal ones. The auctions were a terrible idea, something the vampire authority should have never gotten involved with, to begin with, but we did, and now my wife is caught up in all of it. My beautiful wife is in the middle of all of this, and it is my fault. Why would they want a human girl anyway? Just to torture me? These bastards will hurt her, and I know it is true.My phone dings it is Draco; they have Jules at a hotel just outside of the French quarter, Ronica’s place. I have to hurry and get to her. I know Tatina has a temper, and she will not play with him. Tatina will kill him before I can get my wife back. I cannot blame her after what she went throu
The Auction Lettie
Renae POVI try to open my eyes, but my eyes are so heavy. I am so weak. Where am I? I am not sure. I remember being grabbed on the street when I was trying to ditch Draco so I could get to Lester. Why is Draco and Tatina here? It all happened so fast. I got distracted when I thought I saw Jules’s brother Horace. It is strange because I thought he was dead or missing or something. Didn't Craig kill Horace or something after the incident at an authority auction like maybe three years ago or maybe not quite that long ago. I cannot think. I know he was wanted by the vampire authority at some point. Someone wanted him dead. Why can't I think? What is wrong with me?My brain is too fuzzy to think. I look around the room to see if I can figure out where I am and what exactly is going on with me. Who took me? Why am I here? I look around. I see other women. The room is dark, so very dark, or is it my vision. I am not sure. Think Renae, focus
The Auction Tibo
Lester POVMy driver drives through central city to Tibo’s place. There are not a lot of people out this late at night in Central City. Humans stay away at night. The vampires come out and play in Central city and every one knows it. My driver dives slowly down Tibo’s street per my instructions. I want to see if there is any movement in his house or on his street before I get out of the sedan. I have to be careful. I know they are watching for me and I am sure they know that I am coming for my wife.When my driver parks in front of the house, there is a light on in the house. Not a white light, it is a greenish light. Maybe someone is in business close by and that is the signal. My driver comes around, opens my door, and the light goes off, comes back on, flashes a few times, and then goes off again. That is strange. My driver shuts my door. I hear movement from the porch area and someone moving toward me.“Tibo, is that
The Auction Horace and His Auction House
Horace POVI begin to set up for tonight’s auction, and I cannot wait to see her face when I slap her on the auction block. I have a special prize to go on the auction block if Lester does not come for his little human wife. I may take his money and auction the little bitch anyway. I wonder what the vampires and wolves would do to her little human body. The thought of her in pain makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. I have never liked Renae; she always acted like she was better than me. She is a human. Her only talent is fucking vampires. From what I hear from Jules, she makes a good striper, too. I would love to see her end up in some hellish place, someplace where she is used, abused, and tortured. I believe it would do my heart good. I could take her home with me to play with every night, if nothing else. Maybe I could send Lester an occasional picture of her to torture him. The things I could do to her and make her suffer.I make my list
The Auction Lester
Lester POVI have to get her back. I am not sure how much the authority will help me to get her back. I sit here, and I look at the screen blankly. What can I say to make sure he does not harm her? I know what he is thinking, and I know she is probably completely out of her mind on whatever drugs they are pumping into her body. At least, there is comfort in that. She probably has no idea what is going on around her. I hope we can get her out before she comes awake. I do not want Renae to suffer. I cannot bear the thought of her hurting in any way. Fuck, why did I send her into Jule's place in the beginning? This should not be happening.I could offer him immunity for his auctions. Renae will be furious with me if I give Horace immunity. Maybe if I provide him with immunity and then Tatina could kill him before the ink is dry on the contract. I could pay him, but there is no guarantee that he will let her go once he has the money.
The Auction The Auction House Raid
Tatina POVDraco and I pull into the Holy Cross church; as we are about to go around into the basement, I notice a lot of activity across the street. They think they are playing us. Someone got some insufficient information to Lester.“Baby, the auction is over there, not here. Someone did not tell the truth when asked about the auction,” I say to him, pointing toward the lights.We both watch as familiar buyers go into the building. “Are you seeing this? Look, Tibo lied to Lester. That snake. It would be best if you let Lester know before they let him go, and he can warn somebody,” I say to Draco.“Yeah, you are right. I will text Lester to let him know that Tibo lied to him, just in case he thinks about going soft on him. I doubt it, but you never know,” Draco says.He pulls out his phone and sends a message to Lester. “Alright, let’s go,” Draco says.I look

The Auction Renae and Lester
Draco POVTatina is terrified; hell, I am afraid. I am happy to see Renae and Lester here to help keep her calm and maybe put her mind somewhere else. Renae gets out of the car and is running straight into the house to see Tatina. Renae comes up to check on Tatina. I know it will be hard for Renae to see her like this. It is hard to see her, such a vibrant soul that Tatina is, and now she is weak. She will not be fragile for long; as her powers shift and her cravings grow, the doctor assures me that her powers will become stronger than ever after the babies are born. Her focus is not on her vampire transition or losing any of her identity as a fairy. Tatina is only focused on the two babies growing inside her, and as she changes, I can hear every thought in her head. She worries for them so much. It consumes her and makes it hard for her to care for herself. I guess that is most mothers."How is she?" Renae asks me
The Auction Tatina is turing
Tatina POVI awake in the bed alone and afraid. I feel strange, and maybe a little afraid of what is happening to me. I crave blood. It is like a burning desire that aches within me. I need blood. It is all I can think about right now and that loud thundering sound coming from within me. What is that? Why does it sound like there is a storm brewing inside of me?"Tatina, my love," Draco whispers to me from the bedroom door. I look up at him. He looks concerned and so devilishly handsome. I lick my lips and think Ummm I would love to drink from him. Blood, it is what I need, not sex, just blood!"I am so hungry, my love, and I hear this noise. It sounds like two thundering storms coming from within me. I am not sure what is going on with me. I am just so fucking hungry. I need blood. Please let me drink from you," I hiss at him.Draco opens the door and comes inside the bedroom. He looks more concerned as he comes into the room
The Auction Vampire Side
Draco POVTatina is still asleep when I get out of bed this morning. She was wild and on fire for me last night, which I enjoyed every second. We finally went to sleep when the sun was coming up this morning. I lay with her for a few hours and then decided to get things ready for our visitors today.Tatina has a million ideas for Lester and Renae. She is excited that they are taking over the hunt. If there is anyone that carries on in our place, it is Lester and Renae. I hope Tatina is serious about staying out of the hunt. We cannot put a child in danger. I will not do it. I will live for her and our child. I will do whatever is necessary to keep both of them safe.I go down the stairs and finish uncovering furniture. I can speed around and clean the house faster than she can. I cannot have her getting sick from the dust in the house. I finish the living room and go into the kitchen. I clean it up and then remember that she has to eat. I
The Auction The Mountains
Draco POVTatina and I arrive at a small cabin in the mountains. Lester was able to secure us a cottage when I called to tell him that Tatina was pregnant and we needed a place long term. Lester made a few phone calls for me and managed to find a nice big cabin far away from everyone.Tatina wanted off the radar, and this is definitely it. Tatina gets out of the car and walks around the cabin to see what it has to offer. "There are no neighbors," Tatina says."Nope, what am I going to eat?" I tease her."Me, I guess," she says, laughing."Lester is bringing up extra blood bags for me when He and Renae come up tomorrow," I say to her."Well, you can still eat me if you want," Tatina says, laughing. I love to see her laugh and be happy. This is the most comfortable I have seen her in a long time.I run over to her and pick her up. "I will gladly eat you anytime," I say. I nibble at her neck and carry her to the do
The Auction My LOVE
Draco POVWe all go back to Ronica’s place to gather ourselves and figure out what to do next. I have to get Tatina straight so we can get the hell out of hell. I am done with New Orleans and the vampire authority. I am sure she is too. We no longer have to worry about Samuel or Tara, but I still want to get her as far away as possible. I am sure there are pieces of Tara all over the yard from the explosion, along with a few people that were bidding on the auction. We were able to get everyone out safely that mattered. Lester called the authority building and reported the explosion at Horace’s place. I am sure there will be a cover-up. Samuel’s name will not be tarnished. The vampire authority would never take the fall or let one of their own take the fall. I could care less. I have Tatina back, and nothing else matters. She is my life.I take Tatina into the bed and breakfast. I take her straight to our room. I lay her on the b
The Auction Into the fire
Draco POVI awake early so I can get everything together before Tatina gets out of bed. I get out of bed quietly, so I do not wake her. I turn on the bathroom light to dress. I go to let Tatina know that I am going to check on Natie after I dress. She will need a few moments to wake up and get her a cup of coffee or a coke. I pull back the covers, and Tatina is not in bed. She must have gone to check on Natie. I cannot believe I did not realize she got out of bed. I must have slept hard last night. I dress quickly and go to Natie’s room to check on Natie and see if Tatina needs anything. I open the door, and Natie is gone. No Natie, No Jessie, and No Tatina, where is my wife? What the fuck is going on? I run to Lester’s room. I bang on the door. He opens the door in a panic.“Renae is gone,” he says as he opens the door frantically. Lester and I go to Ronica and Jessie's room to see if maybe they are all in there for some
The Auction Bump in the Night
I awake in the middle of the night. I cannot sleep. Draco is lying in the bed beside me and sleeping so sound. I have not seen him sleep this sound in a very long time. He deserves the sleep. Even though they are no longer human, Vampires still need sleep occasionally. It is a myth that they do not sleep. They do not need as much sleep as humans or hybrids, but they do not need some sleep here and there. Draco has always cuddled me at night, even if he does not sleep, but seeing him sleep so peacefully gives me a lot of comfort.I check the hotel room mini-fridge for a water. I want something, maybe a coke and some ice. I grab the ice bucket and quietly slip out of the room. I walk down to the ice machine and start filling up the ice bucket when I hear a strange noise and a yelp. It almost sounds like a person, but it is weak. I listen for a moment, and the sound stops.I take the ice bucket, walk over to the Coke machine, and get a coke out of i
The Auction Now What
Lester POVI leave the authority building; I need to get home to Renae as quickly as possible. I do not want her stressed out worrying about me when she should only be concentrating on her own recovery. I am still in shock over Samuel and Tara, but too many people are saying it is true now. Renae will be devastated if she is not already.I decided to drive myself. I do not want an authority spy watching me, and no one needs to know where I am going or why. I do not think I have driven since I became a high member of the council. I am sure I will be fine. It cannot be that hard. I get into one of the black sedans. They can trace my whereabouts in these, fuck. I pull out my phone and call a cab. I go to the side street to wait for the taxi. Guess I will not see if I can still drive just yet.As I am waiting, I notice a woman that looks a lot like Tara looking at me. She is watching me. I pretend not to see her. No way in hell I am taking her
The Auction Her Story
Draco POVTatina and Ronica leave me alone with my thoughts. I know I am having a lot of ideas right now. Mostly about how I would like to kill Samuel for what he has done. He is supposed to be protecting people, not making money off of these people. The bastard needs to die, but that would force Tatina and me to go on the run. There has to be a way to make him pay for all of what he has done to these women.The lady starts moving around in the bed. “Where am I?” she asks grumbling and trying to figure out if she is safe or not.“You are safe,” I say.She looks over at me, terrified. “I am not going to hurt you. I am Draco. My wife Tatina is here also. I can get her if you are afraid of me,” I say to her calmly. I know seeing a vampire after being held by one can be a little overwhelming.“Tatina is here. Can I see her? I have heard stories about her,” she says.“Ye
