Only a select few in the human world knew of the existence of the V-Unit, a small group of highly trained Marines - who happened to be vampires.
And it would have stayed that way.
But when events in the vampire world threatened the stability of the human world, the powers that be called for the unit's specialized services.
An intrepid war correspondent, Bronson Rudan, who'd seen more than his fair share of fighting, stumbles across the unit by accident, and is drawn into their world.

At least, that was the plan...

Excerpt from Life After Living
After a trip to the bathroom, Vance made his way to the coffee maker. He stood there a moment, mystified as to why there was no coffee. As the cobwebs finally cleared he remembered that Jeff was no longer here. He was the one who had always set up the coffee maker the night before. Sighing heavily, Vance went about making coffee.
“Was it four or five scoops?” Vance asked out loud, even though he was the only person there.
The black-and-white Border collie, Bonnie, cocked her head to one side as she watched the human struggling with making a simple pot of coffee.
Vance looked down at the dog. “If you think it’s so easy, you do it.”
Bonnie whined and then turned and went out through the doggie door.
“Yeah, didn’t think so,” Vance grumbled while he filled the pot with water.
When the smell of coffee started filling the kitchen Vance sat down on one of the stools at the breakfast bar and waited. He looked out the window over the sink. It was another beautiful sunrise. The sight was so familiar that he could close his eyes and still visually see the hues of deep purple fading to pink that would turn to pale yellow as the sun rose higher in the sky. Even so, it was as if his eyes were open, he had it so firmly imbedded in his mind. It was a sight that he never grew tired of. Only now he would be seeing it each morning alone. Jeff was gone.
Vance took a sip of the hot, black coffee when it finally finished brewing. He sat and enjoyed his coffee for a few minutes before walking towards the bedroom. Stick to the routine.
Socks, a clean jock, jean shorts, and a faded Grateful Dead T-shirt would be the attire for the day, just like any other day, though a different T-shirt. A quick trip to the bathroom to brush his teeth and he’d be ready to go. He looked in the mirror. “Almost time for a haircut,” he said to his image. His hand froze in mid-air, the comb seemingly mocking him. Who is going to cut my hair? Jeff always did it, but Jeff… is gone.
“Vance? Where are you?”
“I’m in the bathroom, Janice. I’ll be right out.” He quickly ran the comb through his hair, wiped his mouth once more with the hand towel before carefully folding it over the towel bar. Stick with the routine. Looking in the mirror one more time, sighing, he turned, leaving the room that he and Jeff had taken such care in planning and renovating.
“You’re such a good girl, Bonnie,” Janice soothed as she filled the empty stainless steel food bowl. “Did Daddy not feed you this morning?”
“I would have gotten to it,” Vance said, clomping into the room, his work boots still untied. “Jeff… normally took care of that.”
Janice looked closely at Vance, her eyes squinted. “Vance? What are you doing?”
He looked up from tying his boots. “What’s it look like I’m doing? I’m tying my boots.”
“Honey, your husband just died. You’re entitled to take a day off you know? Besides, aren’t there other things that… you need to take care of?” Janice kept watching Vance. “Um… did they… like, say conclusively what… you know…?”
Vance stood up, his face blank, knowing what she was asking. “Yes. Major heart attack and yes, Janice, everything has already been taken care of. I did that last night at the hospital. Jeff always said that he wanted to be cremated then his ashes spread around the property. He never wanted a big fussy funeral. I released his body to the local funeral home while at the hospital and they’re going to call me when he’s ready to be picked up.”
