The Characters
ALBA
Alba is over 200 years old. Her maker abandoned her over a century ago. Alba is
desperate to re-capture the passion she once felt. Alba is a former Countess.
After her maker killed her husband she traded one abusive relationship for another.
Allowing her maker to be in charge of all her decision making, Alba is still frozen in
time as a cautions young woman from the 1800s with no sense of herself. Her marriage
was a loveless one. She has limited experience when it comes to matters of the heart.
Alba must confront her dark past in order to embrace her future.
KALI
Kali is a call girl on the wrong side of forty with an adventurous spirit and addictive
personality. She trades on sexual services and has more empathy and insight into
her clients needs and desires then her own. Kali is curvy and wild, she lives each
day like it's her last and is acutely aware that her lifestyle has a ticking clock that
is slowly winding down and running out of time. Kali owns her choices and makes
no apologies for what she does, she is no ones victim. Kali has a inner strength
and charm that draws Alba in.
