Esrevinu — A. Scott Boddie

For every waking moment of Esrevinu's life, he has dreamed of a better life, but, unfortunately, he has aggressions that he must release. At seventeen, he murders his parents. With their last breaths, his past disappears, and he does not mourn. Instead, he kills thirteen more times and becomes known as the Harlem Meer Killer. In front of the Elephant Rocks in Central Park-where Esrevinu seeks salvation from damnation-he meets Prince Sebastian, a vampire who immediately sweeps him away, baptizes him in the ocean, and promises to return. Suddenly Esrevinu's mortal life as a serial killer gives way to a new immortal life as a vampire. As he anxiously awaits a reunion with the dark knight, Esrevinu mistakenly thinks that Sebastian's kiss has cured him of his urge to kill. Unfortunately he is wrong. As he takes human lovers, he becomes annoyed with their limited existence and kills each in a? t of anger. The only one Esrevinu can count on for true companionship is Noom, a masculine beast with aggressive hunting instincts. But Noom has no idea that he is about to assist Esrevinu in murdering Prince Sebastian-an event that will lead to Sebastian's father, the King, placing bounties on each of their heads. In this fantasy tale, Esrevinu, a vampire obsessed with his mission to survive Earth's demise, transitions from slaughtering humans to murdering immortals, for Esrevinu only wants one thing-their powers.
