With the Lakota beauty in mortal danger, Tiernan offered himself up as her protector, insisting they stick together 24/7.

The
Annals of
Alchemy and Blood THE LAST VAMPIRE Deep
in a Texas cave, the military unearths a five-hundred year-old corpse,
its desiccated flesh teeming with mysterious DNA that can transform
mortals into beings of unimaginable power. Captain Scott Boulder,
leader of a Black Ops unit that has been endowed with these superhuman
abilities, is among the first to benefit from the find. But when,
with the help of a voodoo priestess, the creature is conjured to life,
unleashing an ancient evil bent on reinstating its poisonous kind on
earth, Scott knows he must return the monster to the grave. Powerless
to fight this evil alone, Scott seeks the aid of reclusive
anthropologist Leah Maguire, an expert in the mystical rituals of the
past. To keep humanity from entering a new Dark Age, Scott and Leah
will battle unspeakable horrors and will sacrifice everything they hold
dear-perhaps even their own humanity-to destroy the last vampire.

have to be alone with him, secluded with him, and accept his untamed
ways to draw out a beast…
