Valentine’s Day is a day created for lovers. You might think it would be a romance writer’s favorite holiday. Candy, flowers, and wine sales are booming.
But humans aren’t the only creatures that can celebrate. What about the paranormal community? What are they supposed to do? Vampires never drink—Well, at least not wine. And candy is iffy. Toffee and jellied fruits, or gummies and other confections could create tooth and other dental problems in several species.
I bet paranormal creatures have their own traditions when it comes to Valentine’s Day. I imagine it would look like this:
Vampires—Blood in a heart shaped bag might make a nice gift.
Shifters could enjoy a picnic (steak sandwiches?) and a moonlight run.
Dragons—Ah, gold jewelry would do the trick.
Witches may appreciate a beautiful journal for spell books.
Incubi—These feast on lust and other emotions, so perhaps a weekend at a honeymoon hotel would be exquisite.
