Midnight at Ravenbrook by Sam Burns & W.M. Fawkes


A unique short story about a man who's desperate to help his sister, and another who's finally gained freedom.


From the Midnight at Ravenbrook blurb:

Nothing in this world means more to Knox than saving his baby sister from the mess she’s slipped into. Fresh out of prison and staring down her five-figure debt, Knox knows he has to do whatever it takes to keep her safe—and make up for the years he left her alone.

One more job.

One last haul.

Then, they’re getting the hell out of dodge and he’ll see his sister sober again.

But when he hits an old mansion, Knox gets more than he bargained for. The creatures inside are anything but human, and when the job takes a devastating turn, pale Emmanuel offers Knox everything he’s been fighting for.

Knox has always been okay with a little bloodshed, but Emmanuel’s demands push him to his limits . . . and offer him an alluring new gift: eternity.

Midnight at Ravenbrook is an extra-spicy novella featuring one sharp-edged ex-con, a vampire starving for more than blood, and a battle for control that promises both of them everything they never knew they needed. It was originally published on our Patreon page.


Angel's review:

This story was interesting, it was a unique twist on vampires. After Knox gets released from prison he learns that his sister became an addict when he was gone and owes a lot of money to someone. He wants to help her but in order to get the amount she needs he has to rob a house, and the house he chose was supposed to be empty.. but it wasn't.

There was dual POV's and they were written well and helped give insight into both characters thoughts and feelings. I felt bad for Emmanuel because his mom has held him captive for decades, and has treated him like he's a monster just because of what gender he likes.

I thought this story was good... I just wish it was longer. It felt like something was missing. Plus the way it ended felt as though it ended on a cliffhanger which left the story feeling incomplete. Overall an interesting story that was written well, I just think it would've benefited from being longer.
