The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

She sickly gazed upon her frail body in the antique mirror

Touching the broken glass, delicately tracing the sharp crack

When she noticed a looming shadowy figure standing just behind her in the reflection

"It has been too long since we last danced.. did you miss me?"

A dark strong hand reached out and circled her slender waist

Gently turning her around so that she could stare at his expressionless face

A thousand needles ran down her spine as she lost herself in those cold eerie eyes

As she struggled to pry herself free from his horridly tight embrace

Her heart thundered each quickened beat in undeniable excitement

Accompanied only by her frightfully erratic intake of air

"No.. I will not accept you.. it's not yet my time!!!"

With a sudden burst of energy, her hand thrust towards the clouded mirror

Shattering it at the price of staining her porcelain skin with her own blood

Shards of glass glisten crimson under the flickering candlelight

As the all too familiar stranger disappeared from her side

"I will claim you soon.. until then, I will enjoy each sensual tango.

You may try to delay it.. but I will take you..

You know this is inevitable."

And as she cried, bleeding and broken on the floor.. Death left.. for now.
