The shadows under the stars.

Chapter.1 Victoria

       I gaze up at the stars resting my head against the trunk of a tree. I'm certain a human will pass through these woods like every other night. The chase does get boring But its something i must do in order to survive. I hear the crunch of a stick. I move my head down so I can better focus. Then I hear the crunch of leaves. I know exactly who it is based on the foot steps. She comes through the woods every night. I Smile. Hasn't she learned by now these woods are mine, I think. It doesn't matter because I actually like seeing her she has this lovely sent about her.

    I begin to move from the tree, slowly approaching where I heard the noise. Then I see her. Her beautiful brown hair with her freckled face. I can't help but blush a little. I move again. She freezes where she is. Shit she knows I'm watching her. "Hey" I say unexpectedly "What's a pretty thing like you don't here? Don't you know that its dangerous?" She doesn't respond. I frown. She's out awfully late it could be dangerous if there was any other Vampires out. Its just past midnight. "Be careful before the night is done you might end on someone's plate" I say winking at her. Still no response from her. I don't know her name nor do I know what her voice sounds like. I can hear her breathing  she sounds terrified. I walk closer to her. She's a rabbit in a hunters trap. She runs as fast her mortal legs can carry her. I let out a sigh. "I love to chase my pray." I chase after her and catch up in no time. I grab her by the wrist. Butterflies explode in my stomach. I feel ashamed. 

    "I'll give you one two three  head start?" I say letting go of her wrist. She runs. Foolish. I smell the fear in her when I catch her the second time. "Four five six your fears intoxicating" I say. This is anything but fair, her poor mortal body cant even help her to survive against a vampire. She tries to run again but I grab her wrist harder. "you can try to run it makes it all the more fun when I finally catch up to you." I say. I let go of her wrist for the final time.  She takes off. so the little rabbit does dance I think smirking. I run after her and catch her in a matter of seconds. "you mortals are so incredibly slow." I say she shrugs. I take her by the hand and spin her around catching her by the waist. "so little rabbit do you dance do you?"
