Creature of the night Going soft then Getting Hard

/"Who’s there?/" her tiny voice echoed inside the dark alley while she shone her phone flashlight around. I had frozen in my spot when her voice came out, I couldn’t risk her seeing me, not yet though. The moon had now risen in the sky and was blocked by a few clouds cutting off its light. At these hours of the night, my kind usually came out to feed whether it’s on animals or humans. I stood in the alley, a far distance from where she stood. She was looking around trying to figure out if someone was actually behind her. I don’t get it; how did she not take a cab? Or at least a bus home if one ran this hour than to walk alone in this dark alley all by herself?
