    Summary

    Out on parole and down an arm, Simon's chances of landing a legal, steady paycheck grow slimmer by the day. When his parole officer plants the idea of becoming a blood and plasma donor in his head, it leads him into the dark corridors of the City Under the City - and directly to Dr. Ryland Grace, a vampire who lives under a museum.

    Simon's Contract is simple: provide a meal on a schedule, get paid. Purely business... well, until it isn't anymore, at least.

    ...whoops.

    Summary

    The worst part about it, Simon thinks, is that when his skin starts to slough off, it’s replaced by a film of blood. And when that starts, the line of demarcation that separates what was strictly him and strictly other starts to fade. Even when his left arm detaches with an uneven rip and the voice in his head stops being his voice, he still hopes there’s a way to distill his real self from the sludge.

    Simon subscribes to the idea that people get what they deserve as a consequence of their actions. Something along the lines of karma. It brings a sense of closure, and he’ll take closure where he can get it. With that, Simon submits himself to the notion he’s getting exactly what he deserves. This is how it’s going to end - with him blindly slinging an axe in a battle for unsatisfying gulps of metallic air, fumbling around the dark for a line that used to exist.

    But he wakes up. And the first thing Simon’s traitorous brain thinks is that this man has the kindest eyes he’s ever seen.
