It was 9:00 P.M. on May 15th, 2015 in New York, New York, and 22-year-old Serefina Rose Romano was leaving work and was waiting for a cab so she could go home. A gust of wind blew around her and she pulled her jacket just a bit tighter around her body. All of a sudden she was being pushed into an alley way. She lied on the ground, not having a clue about what had just happened. She was tired and all she wanted to do was go home, eat and then go to bed. Serefina looked around her in confusion, but she didn't see anything. She was about to get up when suddenly someone was standing over her. Even in the low lighting, she could tell the person was a man who looked to be about 25-years-old. He had red-black eyes, black hair that reached his shoulders. He had an olive complexion with a chalky pallor. He was also tall, at least a foot taller than Serefina, and lean. In short, he looked like an angel, with the exception of his eyes. Serefina looked up at him, her face filled with a fear that he had never seen in all his years of living, and he was used to seeing fear upon the faces of his victims, but the fear on the face of the girl was a little unnerving.

I'm going to get mugged, raped and possibly killed, Serefina thought to herself. I'm too young to die!

The man could tell what she was thinking based on her facial expression.

I may kill her and drink her blood, but I'm not going to rape her. I do have a conscience and I do have morals, the man thought to himself.

The man cupped her face in her hands, and his skin was cold, and not because of the weather; they were like blocks of ice on her skin. Serefina shivered; her breathing became heavy, she didn't want to die. The man made a motion to snap Serefina's neck, but he couldn't bring himself to do it. He made several more attempts to snap her neck, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't bring himself to do it and he didn't understand why.

Fear was building up in Serefina, her heart began to race and her breathing became even heavier. After several more failed attempts to break Serefina's neck, he decided to give up. He bent down to her level. Serefina started shaking uncontrollably.

"Don't say a word to anybody and the secret can go to your grave."

In the blink of an eye the man was gone. Serefina looked around her, shook her head, and after a moment stood to her feet. At first she was shaky, but soon regained her balance. Serefina made her way to her back to the street successfully and managed to flag down a cab. She gave the cab driver her address as she closed the cab door behind her.

Whatever that man is, he isn't human, I know that. But what could he be? Serefina asked herself. For the duration of the cab ride, she tried to figure out what had happened in the alley way, but she was so confused, and tired, that she couldn't wrap her mind around the events that had taken place.

About twenty minutes later, the cab stopped in front of Serefina's apartment building. She paid the fare and a small tip and then headed up to her apartment. When she got in she kicked off her shoes, before getting on the computer, she decided to take a well-needed shower. She walked into her bathroom, turned the water on hot, stripped her clothes off while waiting for the water to warm up and then she got into the shower. She washed her hair and her body; she allowed the hot water to run over her body, the hot water was doing wonders for her tense muscles. Once the water started running cold she got out of the shower, put on some pajamas and hopped onto the computer. Serefina typed what she noticed about the man, the cold skin, the red-black eyes, and the angel-like features, into a search on Google, and one word, one dreaded word, kept showing up...Vampire.


A/N: I know my description of the vampire was vague, but that was the point, he will be revealed in the next chapter.
