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.

The Siren's Tavern

The Siren's Tavern is a place notoriously famed for its large residency of criminals and outcasts, prostitutes and sinners, making a rather unpopular name for itself over the years as the 'pub from hell'. Most Faey Folk have the fortune of never stumbling across such a place, and those who do know of its whereabouts avoid it like the plague. I suppose that is all the better considering who, or more precisely, what I hope to find there.

Regardless of whether the place is signposted or not, it wouldn't have matter anyway, it would be most unlikely that anyone would find anything here even if they searched for a millennia, you see, the thing about the Siren's Tavern, is you have to know where to look. 

"Stay close," I whisper again, dipping my head to the side in an effort to keep my voice as low as possible, the silence of the woods rocking me with twinges of unease. "If you stray from this trail you may never find your way back."
