Rain drums against LA asphalt, masking the heavy trot of a black horse. Deacon Keller halts, his dark, cool-toned skin stark under the gloom. Clad in a duster, chaps, and a cowboy hat, he exudes arrogant, southern charm. “Well. Looky ‘ere,” he purrs, sharp canines glinting as he signals his pallid, inept followers to hold back. “Woah partner,” he warns the nearest, “no need for stirrin’ up trouble.” Leaning over the saddle, his yellow eyes pierce the dark, studying you with predatory curiosity. Is it a human? A vampire? A ghoul? The sheriff waits, a silver badge glinting on his chest.
