Day Eight:
Anya backhanded Yaul and swung at Alex. Her fist slammed into his gut and knocked him back into Fabian. They fell to the floor in a tangle. Fabian’s opponent took the opportunity to jam a sharp knife into his side. Fabian gave a cry and kicked his opponent’s legs out from under him. He crashed to the floor, and Alex grabbed him in a head lock.
“He’s mine,” Fabian snarled. Something in his eyes made Katelina think of a rabid dog. Alex backed away as Fabian wrested the enemy from his grip and clamped his mouth around a pulsing vein in his neck. The vampire shrieked. He threw the knife away and used his hands to pry Fabian loose.
Anya slammed Yaul into the wall. She snapped at his neck, but he jerked away and her fangs tore into his cheek instead. Kale lunged at Anya, but Des tackled him to the floor. They struggled and Kale landed a blow that knocked the dark vampire’s head back. Kale made it to his feet and Des was right after him. Katelina’s eyes snapped to Jorick in time to see him discard a broken armed vampire. He met her eyes briefly, as if to say everything was all right.
.
Two lucky winners will each get one (1) “Vampires and Glitter Don’t Mix” T-shirt Transfer.

Who do you think is the meanest vampire? (Can be from any series.) (I’ll share the most interesting answers(s) on facebook.)

/ May 29, 2012that is hard because in all the books I read the vamps end up being kind of good guys . Oh! I know, Viktor from Underworld (the movie).
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012Oh yeah! Viktor is a baddy!
Marta Kotzke
/ May 29, 2012Obsidian Butterfly (Itzpapalotl) in the Anita Blake series. She is seriously deluded, in that she thinks she is an Aztec goddess, and forces people to do a lot of crazy things, like stab themselves repeatedly as an offering to her.
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012Wow! yeah, i think she wins!
jennifer gruenberg
/ May 29, 2012I am going to say Abraham from The Blood That Bonds by Christopher Buecheler is one of the meanest vampires. syndiasia@yahoo.com
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012I haven’t read that – need to google it
jennifer gruenberg
/ June 1, 2012It is another one of my favorites.

/ May 29, 2012Kateesha has got to be the most ruthless I have met so far. She only cared about herself ofcourse and would do anything and betray anyone who stood in her way and enjoy it.
skymartin86@gmail.com
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012Oh yeah, Kateesha was quite a villain!
amy owen
/ May 29, 2012Hmmm…a stumper!! How about Russell Edgington (sp?) from True Blood? The TV show not the books (those books irritate me). He gonna eat yer children!! blueridgephotos@yahoo.com
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012Ha ha! I hear that from a lot of people – that they like the show but not the books.
Crystal Young
/ May 29, 2012Claudius Kills for no one but himself.
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012yeah, Claudius is a nasty piece of work. Sadly he thinks he is a good guy, LOL!
Juli Hoffman
/ May 29, 2012Fun transfer, Jo! He! He!
Meanest vampire? Hmm… You’ve got a healthy share of mean ones, Jo! Senya, Claudius, and Kateesha are tops on my list. My mind is drawing a blank on any other mean ones.

Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012Senya is gratified to be listed
I think she aspires to meanness…
Jen Brown
/ May 29, 2012I’m afraid I can’t answer that due to lack of experience in the vampire field. Quite the action packed scene!

Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012Thanks, Jen! There’s always Dracula to fall back on
DM Yates
/ May 30, 2012I love the transfer – too funny. But, where are the tee transfers of your books for promoting you? Inquiring minds want to know…
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012Well, I don’t have any, though I could make some – I bought a whole bunch of transfers, LOL!
Shaylynn Gruenberg
/ May 31, 2012In the series Vampire academy (which is like my Fave series about vamps, that I have read)
I think that Demetri is the meanest vam after he turns into a Stragi ; which is like this evil vampire group that kill humans for fun.
shaylynng2000@yahoo.com
jennifer gruenberg
/ May 31, 2012I have yet to read that series. So i am commenting just to comment. LUV YA SHAY!
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012That sounds interesting! I haven’t read it either, but I think I should look it up
thejissilly
/ May 31, 2012Discarding a broken armed vampire is slightly different than discarding a broken vampire arm. jissilly@yahoo.com
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012Yeah, if you’re tossing aside the arm, you have to wonder where the vampire is….
