Excerpt
Rosalind opened her mouth to reply, but her words caught in her throat. The man’s pulse was visible in his neck as he tilted his head questioningly, a rhythmic call that drowned out everything else. She could almost taste his blood on her tongue, imagine how it would slip past her lips and flood through her cold body with delicious heat.
“I … I …” she stammered, gripping the edge of the bar so tightly that her knuckles, impossibly, blanched even whiter against her deathless pallor.
“First time here?” the bartender asked, misreading her hesitation. He leaned in closer, his scent overwhelming her senses. “Don’t worry. I’ll fix you up something special.”
Rosalind’s world narrowed to that pulsing vein. For a moment, she wished that he would sense what she was. That he would panic. Run, so that she could give chase. She didn’t want to just feed—she wanted to hunt. Rosalind’s lips started to curl away from her teeth when something broke through her growing bloodlust.

Audiobook
There is no "proper" audiobook at this time, though it is something being explored.
HOWEVER — for accessbility purposes — there is a free audiobook made with a synthetic voice. The intention is to provide something that is slightly better than what low quality text-to-speech software can provide.
M. A. Glaude does not believe that this is a replacement for human audiobook performers. It is only meant to be a supplementary service until such time as a proper audiobook can be produced. The AI-generated narration may contain occasional pronunciation irregularities. Thank your for your understanding.
