Redemption

The intruder

Seven years went by and I still lived at the shores of the lake. I was at peace and this time it wasn’t fake. Seven years had gone by since Alex and Jeff got married. Jeff was sick and soon to be buried. He had cancer and had a few months left to live. Alex came to me asking me for a favour.
“I don’t want to watch another person I love die. Please do me this favour I beg you with all my life. Turn Jeff into a vampire, make him immortal. He might turn into a vamp but at least he won’t have to die.” She said.
“Being immortal is a fate worse than death, you might get the man you love back but at what cost will he live? He will be bound to the shadows and on blood he will feed, you will grow old and he still be alive when you no longer breath. Think is that the life you want for him? Well I will not do it not for you and not for him” I said to her.
She left with a hurting heart. On the other hand I had been hearing rumours of a child of the night, who is almost as strong as I am. The child had been on a killing spree. The creature is said to have murdered countless beings, both man and vamp. They say he is relentless, a cold hearted killer with a thirst that can’t be quenched. Sounds like me back in the day.
I was on his tracks but he was also hot on mine. I got back from seeing Alex and found my house had been trashed. The scent was familiar but I couldn't seem to remember who it belonged to. 
I tracked down the scent and it lead to massacre. A school library filled with bodies of slaughtered young kids.” Who could do such a thing?” I asked myself. I made sure none of the dead bodies came back as vamps or any other unholy creature.
I stayed on the trail and where the scent lead next made my blood boil. It’s none other than Alex’s place. I stormed in as fast as I could. My heart broke to the unholy sight I found. Jeff on the ground with his throat cut open and Alex laying there with what appears to be a little creature with the same appearance as me clinging on to her throat sucking the life out of her.
Enraged by the sight I shift, I grub it by the throat as I slowly crush it but it shifts back to human form and says “don’t hurt me” while she is gasping for air. “Those eyes, those eyes” I let her down and ask, “Who are you? What are you doing here?”
