When Blood Runs Cold

[MATURE CONTENT] A vampire's love is a dangerous thing. Beautiful and fiery, dangerous and domineering. A perfect lover, and, a perfect killer... 'A vampire is the world's perfect predator,' I was once told. 'Seduce you with a smile, a wink, a caress of your cheek, a kiss on your lips. Then they will rip your wings off with their bare hands, leave you flightless; yet in their tight embrace of death, enchanted, you would not even struggle. Not even as they drained each thick drop of blood from your pulsing veins. Vampires are as masterful as they are cruel, they would like nothing greater than to play the overlord in a game of life and death, of love and lies. To them, you are a trifle, a plaything to tempt and toy with. If you think you are anything more, then you have already fallen for their trap.' If this is true, it would take him little under an hour to have me dead. I should have been dead weeks ago. Maybe, I already am.

Drinks and squabbles

"Tavern life," Fangorn beams, taking a deep breath of air, inhaling the fumes of the alcohol and the cheap boozy foods. "I have missed this."

In unison, all of us roll our eyes, each of us thinking the same thoughts that only Kal has the nerve to express. Fangorn is no stranger to a tavern, nor the occasional brawl whenever a drunken opportunity had slipped into his fingers. His time as an outcast in Sezeria left him to feel solace over the little things, mainly wine and loitering in the shadows of a well used pub for criminals, where the gossip was wild and the traces of my brothers activities became just a little more apparent.

It would seem in those hundreds of years he has become quite attached, for that glow in his eyes as he breathes in that tepid tavern air is one of sole admiration. Tugging at his arm to follow us, Kal pulls him with us as we dart our way past tables of customers, looking for an empty place to sit.
