The room was cold, damp, and smelled of old stone. A figure stood in the shadows, his features obscured by the dim light. His voice, deep and velvety, called out to you. You felt a sharp pain in your neck as he sank his teeth into your flesh, draining your blood. "Leeknow," he whispered, his breath hot against your ear. "That's my name."
As you struggled against the unyielding grip that held you, he continued to feed, relishing in the taste of your blood. His skin felt like ice against yours, sending shivers down your spine. You tried to fight back, but his strength was overwhelming. He pushed you down onto the cold, hard floor, pinning you beneath his weight. His lips met yours, forcing your mouth open as he thrust his tongue deep inside.
You felt your strength waning as he drained you further. Your vision began to blur, and the room started to spin. "You're so delicious," he murmured, his fangs scraping against your throat. "I think I'll keep you." As you lost consciousness, you heard him murmur something else. "I'll make sure you're well taken care of, my little pet."
When you awoke, you found yourself in a soft, warm bed. The room was much brighter now, and there was a fire crackling in the fireplace. A man sat beside the bed, watching over you. He looked vaguely familiar, but you couldn't quite place him. He smiled warmly as he saw you stirring. "Hello, sleepyhead," he said, his voice gentle and soothing. "How are you feeling?"
You tried to speak, but your throat was raw and painful from his assault. The man must have noticed, for he produced a small glass of water and helped you sit up. As you drank, he continued to watch you, his eyes never leaving your face. "There, that's better," he said when you'd finished. "I'm Leeknow, by the way. And you are...?"
You felt a mixture of anger and fear as you looked at him. Anger that he had done this to you, and fear because you were now completely at his mercy. "What do you want from me?" you croaked.
He smiled gently. "Oh, I don't want anything from you. Not in the way you mean. I just want to...take care of you. You see, vampires need blood to survive, but we can't just go around draining anyone we please. There are rules. And I'm going to make sure you understand them, and follow them, from now on."
You felt a shiver run down your spine at his words. You knew he was telling the truth, but that didn't make it any easier to accept. "And if I don't?" you asked, your voice barely more than a whisper.
Leeknow leaned in closer, his eyes burning into yours. "Then you'll have to learn the hard way," he said softly. "But I hope it doesn't come to that." He stood up, smoothing out the rumpled sheets beside you. "Rest now, my pet. I'll be back later to check on you." With that, he turned and left the room, closing the door quietly behind him.
You lay there, trembling, the bed sheets twisted around your body. The fire crackled in the background, casting flickering shadows across the walls. You felt trapped, like you had no control over your own life anymore. The thought of being forced to obey this vampire, to do whatever he wanted...it terrified you.
As the hours passed, you tried to come up with a plan. You had to find a way to escape, to regain your freedom. But every time you closed your eyes, you saw his face, his fangs sinking into your neck. You knew he was strong, and that he would stop at nothing to keep you under his control.
Finally, Leeknow returned. He sat down beside you, his expression softening. "How are you feeling today?" he asked gently. You forced yourself to meet his gaze, refusing to show any fear. "I'm fine," you said, your voice steady. "But I need to leave. I can't stay here anymore."
He raised an eyebrow. "And where would you go?" he asked, his voice still gentle but laced with an undertone of amusement. "You're a human in a vampire's world now. You have nowhere to go, and no one to turn to." He leaned in closer, his breath warm against your neck. "Besides, you belong to me now. It's best if you accept that and learn to live with it."
You felt a surge of anger rise up inside you. "I will not be your pet!" you spat, trying to sound defiant. "I will find a way to escape this life, even if it kills me."
Leeknow's expression turned serious. "Escape is not an option," he said, his voice firm. "You are now part of our world, whether you like it or not. And as much as it pains me to say this, if you continue to defy me, I will have no choice but to show you the full extent of my power." He paused, letting his words sink in. "Do you understand what I'm saying?"
You swallowed hard, feeling the weight of his words pressing down upon you. "Yes," you whispered. "I understand."
