Chapter 4

Seras Victoria

Those eyes

Such big blue eyes underneath strawberry-blonde hair. I couldn't help but smile as I looked into them. They were so innocent and held no trace of malice or regret. The hole in her chest was enormous too look upon and made my brow wrinkled in slight regret that I had to hurt that delicate little angel. But it would have been disobeying orders if I did not.

A small hand reached out to me. Slowly raising and gripping for me. She didn't want to be alone. She could not be alone anymore. My large hand gripped it tightly, reassuringly and she saw me and smiled widely as she could. Such happiness…it was an amazing feeling. The feelings of being needed, being wanted.

I looked around me and up at the sky. I knew Dawn would be approaching soon and I smirked. How like it all to be, dawn coming down from the heavens on this oh-so crucial night. Just to spite me. Some would blame it on the scientific statistics of it all but I knew it was all just a bunch of bullshit. God had a sense of humor, and everyone knew it.

I leaned down to her and inhaled her scent. It smelled of warm vanilla sugar and gun powder. Such a beautiful scent. I nuzzled her and sent a reassuring smile her way.

"This is the part where you close your eyes." She smiled back at me and her eyes slowly slipped closed as my lips brushed against her's, wiping away the traces of blood from her peach lips.

My fangs pierced her neck.
