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.

Angel's don't run. They fly

It is only half way down one such corridor when I realise that the place has become unnaturally quiet. Not a voice whispers down the hall, or a breath of wind, or the call of a bird. Nothing at all, except the plodding of our hurried footsteps and the pants of the hell hound as he sprints ahead.

I only realise a little too late what we are missing.

"Where is-"

As soon as the words leave my throat, something slams into my neck, squeezing round it tightly for a moment before I am knocked to the ground. There is a spluttering howl across the corridor, and a hiss of muffled words that I cannot make out as I groan against the ground, pain shooting up my spine.

But there is no time to rest.
