CHAPTER ONE
Purge
ALEX SET HER hands down on the bar, resisting the urge to adjust the wig on her head. It was strawberry-blonde and much bouncier than her own straight dark hair, but it itched like the saliva from a winged cat. It also made her look more like Paranormal Barbie than the Paranormal Vigilante.
Which was exactly the point.
Purge was a Convictionite club. The enemy’s club. She was supposed to be blending in, not waving her sword around. She hadn’t even brought her sword—or any of her knives. Logan had told her the bouncer at the door would frisk her up to look for weapons. He hadn’t been wrong. Unfortunately. Alex felt naked without her weapons.
No, that’s the skanky outfit you’re wearing. Her dragon side grinned into her mind.
You said you liked it.
Of course I like it. I have no taste. And neither does your boyfriend.
Alex turned her head to glance across the club. Logan stood on the other side of the dance floor, his arms braced against a metal rail, accentuating his muscular form beneath his fitted black clothes. Like a panther ready to pounce.
He must have noticed her appreciative stare. His green eyes locked on her, and his lips lifted up into a smirk. Pulsing points of red light poured down from the overhead lamps, popping against his face in time to the music.
“Aren’t you supposed to be scanning the area for threats?” she asked him, lifting her glass in front of her mouth to hide her moving lips.
“I am,” he spoke through her earpiece.
“While ogling at me?” she teased.
“I can scan for threats and watch you at the same time.” He paused, then added, “Also, assassins don’t ogle.”
“So what do you call what you were just doing?”
“Glaring with purpose.”
Smiling, Alex shifted in her seat, the skin-tight fabric of her scarlet skirt sliding up her thigh as she crossed her legs. Even from across the room, she could feel his aura flare up.

Résumé
Branded as an abomination, Dragon Born mage Alex Dering has spent her whole life hiding what she is—a secret her father died to protect. Eight years after his death, Alex finally gets the chance to track down the mage responsible.
But her vengeance is put on hold when she gets a lead in London on the Blood Orb, a magical artifact with the power to control vampires. Retrieving the orb from the hate group that holds it won’t be easy; thwarting their plan to exterminate every supernatural in the world will be even harder.
To make matters worse, a mysterious killer is stalking Alex’s every move, determined to end her life. To survive this, it will take all her magic, a lot of help from a dangerous ally, and a really big sword.
Blood Magic is the second book in the Dragon Born Alexandria urban fantasy series.
This book is a novel of 70,000 words (paperback: 284 pages).
