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.

Don't lie to me

"It has recently come to my attention," Azrael spits across the table, his fingers clacking against the wood in a rhythmic, insistent hum that continues to drone around the room like the hum of a hive.

It is clear from the way the conscious faery at the end of the table glances around to his tranced associates that Azrael's actions are rendering him entirely uncomfortable- for he has barely even touched the food on his plate. The only thing he has managed to tolerate is the wine, evidence of its blood red hue staining his lips. I suppose it takes a certain lack of soberness to address the Prince of vampires when your life is very much on the line, and the fate of your kingdom, too.

"...that recently you housed a young girl for about five years with a particular set of… powers that I am looking for. I mean her no harm, you see. I only wish to speak to her."
