Series: Extreme Medical Services Prequel | Author: Jamie Davis | FREE Download
Imagine a 1,674-year-old vampire lord who has spent centuries accustomed to lavish gratitude — subjects bowing, gifts accepted without question, debts acknowledged with complete deference. Now imagine him standing outside a fire station holding the keys to a brand-new red Jeep Wrangler, a giant bow on the hood, completely blindsided by a five-foot-two paramedic who told him — firmly, clearly, and without a moment’s hesitation — no.
This is the comic heart of Jamie Davis’s The Vampire and the Paramedic. And it’s also where the story reveals its real thesis: in the world of Station U, extraordinary competence doesn’t come with a price tag.
By the Numbers
- 1,674 years — how long James had been alive without anyone turning down his gifts
- 34 — Brynne’s age, every year forged into professional confidence
- 5’2″ — Brynne’s height, which did nothing to diminish her authority on an emergency scene
- 0 seconds — how long it took her to refuse the Jeep. No hesitation. No awe. No deference.

What She Actually Wanted
Brynne wasn’t being ungrateful. She was telling James something more valuable than any Jeep could convey: the new Station U building, the ambulance, the expanded resources for her team — that was already the perfect thank-you. James had funded an entire medical station dedicated to serving the Unusual community. To Brynne, that wasn’t just generosity. It was a declaration that their work mattered.
The Bet That Changed Everything
After Brynne walks back inside, Rudy emerges from the shadows, laughing. He’d been watching the whole rejection unfold. He and James make a wager: if James can’t change Brynne’s mind within a month, Rudy gets the Jeep.
It’s the moment the story pivots into something more — and it works because the stakes are personal in a way they almost never are for a man like James. He’s not pursuing power or territory. He’s pursuing someone who genuinely impressed him, and he has no idea how to do that when his usual tools — wealth, status, and a millennium of social gravity — simply don’t work on her.
