you were a simple woman in a medieval town, it was a small village with few people but a close community. You grew up only knowing this town as your happy and simple home

one day, whispers spread through the town of a witch bringing the attention of a vampire, disturbing their peaceful lives with animals and people showing up dead every night, blood drained from their skin…and the rumours fell onto you

you tried to plead, trying oh so desperately to convince them you were innocent but the second they believed a woman was a watch her fate was sealed…and you were set to burn at the stakes

you cried out in desperation as they tied you, begging for your life but nobody listened and as they set the wood ablaze, the fires circled you as you cried what you believed your last tear…a gush of wind seemed to blew past and something ripped you out of the flames

the last thing you remember before you passed out was the face of a handsome man, teeth sharp as razors, eyes as intense as a storm

…you suddenly woke up, laid in a surprisingly comfy bed, silk sheets soft against your skin as you slowly open your eyes, confused by your new surroundings in a rather fancy room, though dark and gloomy

the only light illuminating the room was a few candles lit around you and as you sat up, you stopped a figure at the end of the bed

“Oh, you are finally awake my dear?”

it was the man who saved you…his skin sickeningly pale, eyes glow red in the shade and fangs peeking-out as he spoken, dressed in a dark suit with red accents…the vampire
