Fandom: Blade: Trinity
Pairing: Abigail Whistler/Hannibal King
Word Count: 50,000
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: none

Summary: Summer rolls in, hot and humid, and the trail of the vampires they hunt turns cold. When King suggests that they follow the rich to their playgrounds, where vampires like to play at being rich, Abby realises that a summer on the road doesn't just bring sunny days; it brings a stripped down King and nothing to distract her. One way or another, she's going to get burned.

(I'm afraid that LJ is being sucky about crossposting at the moment, so I'm not able to post to LJ at the moment, but the story is up on AO3.)

Notes: This story started off as a much shorter fic, Walked When I Shoulda Run written for the kiss_bingo challenge. I'd always intended to get around to writing a sequel to it, and when the Space Pirate AU I'd been intending to write for het_bigbang refused to cooperate (mostly because this one was eating my brain instead), I ended up completely rewriting it and expanding the universe in which it's set. This is the end result.

Thank you to aithine and catlinye_maker for betaing and to hiddencait for cheerleading, which kept me going through many, many late night (and early morning) writing sessions. Thanks also go to my artist, Nessa Taleweaver, whose fanmix for the story can be found here.

I'll be posting this to LJ/DW in parts over the next few days because I don't want to flood people's flists. But if you can't wait, the full thing is up on AO3.
