Thirst (The Last Vampire)

Christopher Pike

For five millennia, Alisa has masterfully controlled her vampiric nature, feeding without killing and living in secrecy to evade detection. Her carefully constructed existence shatters when her creator reappears, intent on hunting her down, forcing Alisa to confront her deepest instincts and break her own rules to survive. Her desperate quest for survival leads her to Ray, a young man who holds the key to her continued existence but also has every reason to fear her. As Alisa draws closer to Ray, her carefully guarded heart begins to stir, introducing a dangerous new vulnerability and raising the stakes far beyond her own immortality.
