It was almost dawn and Elise was still giddy from seeing Christian that night. She knew she wasn't supposed to love him ( Angels of Death knew no emotions), but for some reason she still did.
He didn't care that she had killed so many innocent mages and he shared the pain of losing a parent or in her case both of them to ravaging creatures.
The metal shades were just sliding over the windows and most of the coven were already preparing for sleep, but Elise was still downstairs, because she knew she wouldn't sleep for a while.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the front door. Not a knock really, but more of a frantic banging.
She ran to the door and opened it, revealing a very disheveled man, who was dressed in clothes that would have been fancy if they were not splashed with mud and dirt, and several rings winked on his fingers.
"Please, you must let me in. The sun is almost up and I am going to burn to death in a couple of seconds."
She could tell by his icy blue eyes and elongated fangs that he was a vampire, so she took a step back from the door letting him into the now darkened room.
The man bent forward, clutching his stomach, like he had run a long way ( which he probably had) and it was a few moments before he spoke again.
"Thank you. My name is Lord Kraven and I have come to warn you of a great danger coming here ......................."

Am sorry it is so short, but do not worry a new chapter is on it's way. It has been a long time since I updated, but a mix of first, exams and Christmas and then a bloody, screwy Internet prevented me from updating sooner.
Hold tight, dear readers, story will pick up soon.
