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.

A dangerous illusion (part one)

No hope... 

Echoes my mind in watery laughs, the silvery voices of vampires spinning around a long forgotten ballroom. 

No hope for the hybrid girl.

Despairingly, I think of the monumental task ahead of me- two more lairs, both designed by creatures created to kill, perfect predators who show no mercy or sentiment to the lesser beings that sit below them in the grand pyramid of life. A series of trials designed to wipe out the weak and the mortal- that is what is ahead of me now.

I can almost hear Azrael's laugh from here. How he would rejoice in the sight of my anguish!

Again, that watery laugh echoes through my mind, blurred, as though underwater.

No hope! No hope!

A steady hand against my shoulder pulls my mind back into existence. A pair of comforting arms slink around my body, cradling me against a sturdy form.
