The Vampire Guardian of Calabar

When the vampire Ansa comes back to town, everyone rejoices... except for her submissive mate of eighty-years. In Ansa's absence, Bassey has learned to survive without Ansa's harsh words and painful touches. Bassey now seeks independence, but when rumors of a possible invasion by foreign vampires start to spread, Bassey must find a way to protect, not just herself, but every other busher that has the tantalizing blood that vampires require to walk in the sunlight. In the end, will she accept Ansa's protection and domination, again? Or will she find the strength to stand up for herself and her people?
