Carmen's Choice

Summary

Former passenger Carmen is stranded on a small freighter in the middle of the ocean and finds herself stranded alone with only 3 chickens for company ...... and the sailor-turned-new-vampire Cort. While Carmen doesn't exactly know what Cort is, she's seen firsthand what these blood-drinking beasts are capable of, so she's not taking any chances. She devised a foolproof method - sleep at sunrise and shoot the vampire in the head at sunset. It took him nearly a full day to heal, so it didn't seem to hurt ...... until the two started talking and Carmen was faced with a choice: go ahead and kill him and die alone, or keep him alive and risk death Hand.
