- Taeui’s pov
“Let’s see, there’s a quiet town behind these rocks.” I mumble as I sniff around my surroundings.
I move around the rocks swiftly but keeping it to a minimum to avoid noise.
Those darn werewolves think I’m good for nothing, but I still have werewolf senses intact! I’m not useless. I pout while thinking.
Well, there’s no use thinking ‘bout it anymore, it’s all in the past anyway. I jump up from the last rock and found myself at the entrance of the town. “I could smell dozens of livestock in this town, I hope my senses don’t fail me!” I whisper to myself.
I quietly roam around the town, sniffing everywhere until I spot any livestock. This is good, all the houses have their lights shut off. I picked the perfect time! Huhu, I’m so smart. I proudly rub my nose as I continue roaming around.
After roaming around for a couple hours, I finally found livestock, **“Jackpot!” **I mutter in joy, there wasn’t just one or two livestock, it was a whole farm of food! There were cows, pigs and sheep, their scents all mixing in with one another. Geez! Why do humans need so much livestock? Do they have big appetites like werewolves too? Well, I guess I can’t judge them.
I softly hum to myself as I kill off each livestock, I’ll feel bad if I take all of their food, so I’ll just kill five or six , just enough to feed my pack for a few days, then I’ll come back here, well probably.. I kill off the last sheep and smile, feeling contented.
*I’m so glad Mother taught me how to kill as quiet as a snail moving, well, I wonder how she’s doing now. She probably already forgot about me and took care of Jaeui. That’s okay though. It’s been a longtime since I got kicked out of that pack.*
I thought, with a depressing expression filled to the brim with sadness and longing.
*“Oh? What’s with the long face?” **A *cold voice rang out from behind.
I immediately got goosebumps all over my skin, my eyes widen and I shudder in fear. Just from that smell, I can tell it’s neither werewolf or human.
“V-vampire..” I mumble as my teeth began to tremble.
“Haha, was it obvious? Well I suppose a werewolf does have a keen sense of smell.”
*Shit! Why did I meet a vampire here!? Isn’t this a human town? No, I’m sure it is, actually, what’s a vampire doing here!? *
The vampire, as if reading my mind, says, “If you’re wondering why I’m here, I’m here for a similar reason as you. I’ve been hungrier than usual these nights.”
Do vampires posess mind-reading abilities too!? Crazy.. Vampires are crazy..Always.!
The vampire sighs, “Listen, we can’t have a conversation if you just keep facing me with your back.”
“It seems as though I’m the only one talking here. Isn’t that a bit rude?” He added.
Who would want to have a conversation with you!?
This shitty vampire. He sounds around my age, why should I be scared of him!?. I turned around, glaring at the vampire.
“Oh..” I mumbled, seeing a taller figure, pale skin and with grey hair seemingly matching the tone of the cold wind. But my eyes fell to his hands.
Hands that are clear and pretty as glass, with fingertips like frosted snow. Delicate yet belonging to the most lethal species known.
The vampire lets out a low laugh, “Do you like my hands?”
My face immediately stiffens and I revert back to my senses, !!! What did I just think.? Snap yourself out of it Tay!
I muster up the courage and open my mouth, “Well, for the likes of you, no! Those pretty hands don’t belong to your species.”
“Pffft..Haha! So you are saying that my hands are pretty. That’s nice, I never thought I’d come across someone who would find my hands pretty.”
Feeling embarrassed, I quickly open my mouth to argue, but his hands are pretty.. and I end up mumbling, “Well.., they’re nice.”
A smile appears on the vampire’s pale face, “You’re looking at my hands the way a predator stares down its prey.”
“Maybe, would you let me take them if I asked?” I jokingly asked.
The vampire reaches out his hand towards me, “Sure, but you have to give me blood from your hands if so. It would be a pity if you’re the only one on the receiving end.”
“I was joking! Geez..What kind of savage joke is that?” I look at him with a puzzled expression.
but my eyes were immediately attracted to his hands and shamelessly stared.
The vampire looked at me with an indifferent expression,“You can touch them if you want.”
“Eh!? Really?”
“Yes, ****Its only right for me to reward someone complimenting me by giving them what they want.”
I probably shouldn’t even be close to a vampire, let alone touching them. But, it’s just touching his hand. Why not?
I gently poke the white hand, unlike this vampire’s smooth hand, mine are rough. I should only admire his hands, I don’t want to ruin those pretty hands of his.
“My hands have gone through bloodshed aswell, you don’t need to worry.” He spoke in a low, reassuring tone, he grabs my hand and holds it with his hand. Our fingers intertwining with eachother.
“E-EH-!!!” I almost yell out, flustered and began heating up.
“Shhh, those humans will hear us.” The vampire quickly covers my mouth before it rang out.
“Oh, and I’m Ilay. Ilay Riegrow.”
