A Brief Excerpt From 1978's Brick Bronson and the Bride of Nosferatu by Stoney M. Badess
Petra knew Brick well enough to see the shame in his eyes.
“What did you do?” she asked him wearily.
Without a word, he turned his head and lowered his collar, revealing a very fresh-looking bite mark on the right side of his neck.
“A vampire?” she sighed.
“Uh-huh.”
“A female vampire.”
“Uh-huh.”
“A young busty, female vampire?”
“Uh-huh.”
“And I suppose you melted her face off after she bit you, right?”
Brick looked down at the floor, embarrassed to be such a walking, talking cliché.
“Uh-huh,” he admitted sadly.
“That’s it,” Petra insisted, “no more cough syrup for you.”
