19 Chapter 19

“Your generation likes to think it’s so hip and happening and now, but it’s no more so than previous generations.” He looked directly at me, and while there was exasperation in his eyes, again I saw the deep sadness in them. “Oh, they see we enjoy the act. In fact…” He glanced away, his face pale. “It’s addictive. Maybe we’re wired that way. If it didn’t feel so good…”

Feeling good was fine, but, “Suppose he looks like that guy from Nosferatu, with the weird teeth in the front of his mouth and the crazy eyes and long, skinny fingers?”

Uncle Phil smiled wryly. “No need to worry about that. They’re all very attractive.”

“Suppose he’s old?”

“Vampyres don’t look old until they’re about to die.”

“They can die?”

“All creatures do. It’s the nature of things. Vampyres have a very long lifespan, and it just takes them longer than the rest of us. There’s a school of thought that holds that’s possible because of the blood they drink from us.”
