A vampire who still celebrates Christmas, and a werewolf looking for a place to sleep for the night. For two enemies, the holiday spirit may be just what they need to heal old wounds.
The last thing Armand expected to find out by his woodpile was a werewolf. The man is freezing, injured, and in desperate need of some help. But for vampires and werewolves, centuries of old conflicts make being friends now nearly impossible. One night of comfort by the fire might be enough to sway a chilly heart, if both Armand and Puck are willing to take that chance.
Christmas gifts come in all shapes and sizes, and the nicest ones, at least if you like surprises, are the unexpected presents. For a lonely vampire, even one who would never admit to such a human emotion, Christmas would normally not be a consideration, never mind any seasonal offerings. But Armand is different, and so is his Christmas.
Vampires and werewolves live in an uneasy truce in this world. Armand has a peace treaty with the local alpha so he can live in relative peace and obtain the blood he needs by hunting local prisoners – with the alpha’s approval. What Armand does not expect is for one of the wolves to turn up injured to the point of needing help – not that the wolf would admit that. And the wolf does not expect the vampire to be nice enough to help. But the holiday spirit works in mysterious ways… even for paranormal beings, it seems.
If you like sweet Christmas stories where old conflicts are buried, if you enjoy enemies suddenly getting along, and if you’re looking for an entertaining, sweet read with very little drama, then you might like this short story.
