Yes, it’s that time of year, when we have to check names off
the naughty and nice list—and when it comes time to find presents for our
supernatural friends, it gets all the harder to find just the right gift. Etiquette
is everything. One doesn’t rush out and buy Vlad a garlic press or suggest hot
rollers for the werewolf in your life.
But what happens when Santa Claws reciprocates and brings
you a gift? And what if that present is
an adorable hellhound puppy? Regifting
just isn’t an option, and refusal might just be the difference between being a
dinner guest and—well, you get the picture.
Don’t despair. Yes, generally, hellhounds are considered
hard to adopt. The glowing red eyes tend to put some people off, especially
families with small children. However, the breed has many hidden charms. Here
are five excellent reasons to consider accepting that hellhound with a big
smile on your face:
1.
Hellhounds have well-developed mechanical
abilities. He can fix the car and chase it.
2.
They love being physically active, and will help
you get in shape, too. There are potential problems with some sports,
however. The tennis courts, with all
those flying and bouncing balls, can confuse his instincts. If you want your
partner to actually hit the ball with a racquet, take someone else.
3.
The hellhound male looks even better in denim
and leather than fur. The ones doing the drooling will be every female for
blocks around.
4.
They’re faithful, loyal, and always know when
you’re feeling down. Plus, you actually CAN send him to obedience class.
5.
Who else will bring you his leash, plus some
naughty suggestions on how to use it?
So, if you find a canine surprise under the tree, you might
just want to count your blessings. Or get your jingle on. Just imagine a hot
guy with all the protective loyalty of a devoted canine, add a dash of demon
wickedness, and you’ve got the picture. For a closer look, check out Frostbound: the Dark Forgotten.
As a snowstorm locks down the city, more
than the roads are getting iced. Someone's beheaded the wrong girl, and
vampire-on-the-lam Talia Rostova thinks it was meant to be her. Now she's the
prime suspect in her own botched murder—and the prisoner of her smoking-hot
neighbor.
Lore is a hellhound, bred to serve and
protect, so he's not freeing Talia until he's sure that she's the prey and not
the hunter. You'd think a beautiful woman in his bedroom would be a good thing,
but trouble-prone Talia has run afoul of someone more sinister than your
average lunatic killer. An ancient Undead is wreaking vengeance on the city—and
on her—and Lore will have to go far beyond a stake to put him back in his grave
