As the moon is rising more on the night's sky, some of the humans go to sleep. They don't know the true face of the night. Outside of the city the roads are empty. In the deep silence you can hear occasionally the wolves cry.
If you walk more you get near a forest where no human enters. The mystery of this place was never solved. The snow that covers it is untouched. No footprint, no sign of anyone entering there. You close your eyes to gather courage and enter. The feeling that something is following you appears almost immediately. As you go deeper you start to hear footsteps. Something is moving fast around you. You start to be scared, your heart beats faster and you stop. You hide in a tree's shadow. You try to stay silent until a slight light catches your attention. Too scared to move you stay there.
A shadow that has the shape of a human comes closer, first you see the red eyes of the beast, then you can see his face. He moves fast in your direction. With one move he is in front of you grinning. You try to run but the fear makes you feel your body numb. With the corner of your eye you can see that light again moving fast between the trees. You hear someone running. You try to scream for help but you can't. The strange man is closer, you can feel his cold breath on your neck.
You look fast in the direction of the fire and see a woman holding a sword. She jumps on the man that attacked you beheading him. You watch all the scene with tears in your eyes and terror in your heart. She gets up from the dead body and walks to you. You feel her warm touch on your cheek then you see her beautiful gray eyes. She speaks to you and you fall asleep.
The next day you wake up home in your bed, remembering nothing, just that you had a weird dream.
A week has passed since you had that dream. Here eyes are hunting you. Her face appears again and again in your dreams.
Now the night is here again. You walk alone on the streets. You are tired, you barely slept since then. It is snowing again. Your head hurts so does your eyes. You are searching for her everywhere. That day, after you woke up you went back in the forest, but it looked like nobody entered there in centuries.
You see her as an angel. "Was it actually a dream? Or was it real?" You keep asking yourself.
Lost in your thoughts you get in front of a pub. You sigh and enter. It was pretty empty for such a late hour. You walk to the bar and buy yourself a beer. You sit at an empty table near the window. It is snowing again.
While you look outside you see her again. The angel from your dreams. She enters in the pub and walks to the bar. She buys herself a coffee. When she turns around she sees you. Her eyes open wide. She shakes her head and sits at a table far away from you. She was also alone. Now you could see her better. She was wearing a short Gothic dress and a pair of New Rock boots. Her dark makeup made her eyes seem lighter. Her hair was tied in a ponytail.
After an hour she gets up from the place she was staying and you fast realize that she was following another man. After they are out you also get up and also start to follow them. You keep walking. You look away for a second and when you look back they were not there anymore. You hear a scream and start running in that direction. You get on a dark street and see her kissing the man's neck. You move closer and closer until you stop again. The man's body falls on the ground with his eyes closed. On his neck you could see wounds created with fangs.
"This cannot be possible!" You say and make a step back. She turns around and sighs. You look at her. Your emotions are mixed : fear, pain, sadness, curiosity.
She cleans the blood from her lips then she speaks "Why have you followed me?"
You make a step back wanting to run, you trip and fall on the ground. "W-What are you?" You say with a trembling voice. She stays silent as she moves closer and closer. On her face you cannot read any emotion.
"I think that I was the one that needs to get an answer first." She crosses her arms over her chest. She looks straight in your eyes. Your lips move but no sound came out. She makes another step closer. "I saved your life so I will not hurt you."
You finally manage to say what you wanted "I wanted to be sure that it was you, can you now answer to mu question."
She nods and sits on the ground next to you "I am a monster that needs blood to survive" she sighs again.
You start to feel your body heavy. And slowly you fall asleep again.
Next day you wake up and see that you were wearing the same clothes you had on last night. You fast look around and see her sleeping with her head on the bed.
She opens her eyes and sees you looking at her. Your feeling are mixed : sadness, fear and something different, love. You soflty touch her cheek. She mutters opening her eyes slowly. She gets up and yawns lazy. You look at her and move far from her. She looks at you and smiles relaxed revealing a pair of fangs. Your body starts to shiver.
"A....are you a vampire?" You ask without hiding the fear in your voice. She makes a few steps closer and looks into your eyes.
"Do not be scared, i will not hurt you." She says with a warm smile. You nod and try to relax a little.
Your thoughts are mixed and just one is clear : If she wanted to hurt you, you would have been dead by now.
You try to smile as she sits next to you on the bed. You close your eyes and open them again. The morning's sun fills the room with light.
