In the end it's all about blood.
It's so dark in the forest. Not that it poses any problems to my vampire vision. No, it's not it. It's just that the darkness that has been dwelling inside of me for centuries has finally found a way out. It blends with the darkness of the forest making it my home forever. I can feel the moon high in the sky, it is on the wane, and it's like a sickle. The crescent rips my chest open setting the darkness free. The wind swirls it around us, we are engulfed by an eternal night, night of revelations. A current of air is blowing my coal black hair about and he avidly inhales my lilac scent. I can feel it sends shivers down his spine. He is not free. He is trapped in here with me forever. It's magic.
For the first time in my life I am completely lost. I don't know what's happening to me. And here I am lying in his arms. It's so eerie. A moment ago I drained his girlfriend. Her body is over there. Her eyes are open accusing us. But we've done nothing wrong. I need blood to live. And I sort of like living. It's fun. And he…,wait, I know nothing about him. The only thing I know for sure is that we are connected, don't know how and why but we are. We are bound to be together. We are tied by myriads of steel threads that are stitching our hearts tight together. I can hear his thoughts in my head, I feel his desire for me in his blood, it's singing to me. Its song is pure enchantment. His eyes are closed. His lips are so inviting. I must know their taste. I turn in his arms and in one abrupt movement smash our lips together. Passion that is as old as the world itself… pure passion with its primal nature seizes our bodies and souls. Our erratic breathing sets everything around us on fire. I can feel him with each cell of my body. From now and forever he is my world. How is it possible? I've lived centuries without him, haven't I? No, I guess I haven't. It was not life. It was just dragging through senseless, meaningless existence.
He opens his hazel eyes and stares into my scarlet ones. I can hear his voice deep inside of my being. Oh it's sharing. Incredible! Usually the only ones I can show my true being are my victims and as they inevitably become part of me it's not real. But this, it's real. As if we can create a world of our own, just for two of us. Our little world of pain, torture … and love. What? It is not my thought. He strokes my hair hugging me tight to him. He inhales my scent once again. Oh, it's a gigantic mistake. For immediately it sets his whole being on fire, not his usual fire, but real one…hellfire. His blood is boiling now, so is mine. I lean closer in his embrace if it even possible. Our heartbeats are accelerating for we are reaching the point of opening the gate to our new life. We are bewitched. Time stopped the moment we kissed. The river of life changed its course and we are on the way of a roaring stream, we are to be devoured by it. I close my eyes and in a flash it comes to me, my mother's last words before I burnt her alive. "You're a creature of darkness. There is no place for you anywhere. You are empty. You have nothing to offer to this world. You an experiment that went wrong" Yea, and this is my mom. A lovely family, I can assure you. And you don't know my dad, lucky you, poor me for I know him only too well. What if she was right? I am going to destroy his life. You are doing it right now but I don't care. It is yours to burn, my Flame.
We are at the threshold of eternity, one step forward and we are…But you know that the worst thing you can do at the threshold is to stumble. We definitely don't want it. Some rustle behind us ruins the moment. Oh, it's just some kind of a night animal. Hey you, little predator, look out there are more dangerous things in this forest than you are. However, the moment is ruined.
I stand up; the wind caresses my skin blowing my waist long black hair loose, my translucent skin shimmers in the moon light. And though the connection is broken and I cannot hear his thoughts anymore, by the look in his eyes I can tell I am his universe. And I am a damn hot one. The whole universe of hellfire. And as if to prove this point I set the bushes in front of us on fire. Yea I can do this. It sort of, runs in the family. This is the only thing my father ever gave me. And I am inclined to think that's really a nice gift. And this sharing thing is something I got from my mom. Nice isn't it? So my bloodline is not so bad after all. And in the end it's all about blood.
