Emerald Eyes

Prologue

I could feel her wild eyes on me. I kept on running as fast as my legs carried me through a dark alley. My feet were splashing the water on the pavement with an echo. The footsteps behind me went quieter, then numb. I turned around with nothing catching my eye but pitch darkness. Panic rose in me as I felt my heart beating so fast up in my throat like it wanted to escape. I saw nothing but the white fume that left my mouth with every heavy and short breathe I took and exhaled. The air became colder and I felt it caress my skin. 

Suddenly, a cold hand roughly grabbed my wrist and turned me around. The woman strangely gazed at our hands. Her eyes were the brightest thing in this dark. They were the colour of a pure untouched emerald. I decided to look at my wrist as well for whatever she saw in it gave her an uneasy expression. For a second I felt peace and calm enter my mind as I listened to the hard beating of my heart and then out of nowhere she looked at me. 

I couldn't move out of the fear and the thoughts in my head froze. All I could do is stare at her. I felt a huge pain and the skin on my wrist started to tear apart. Common sense was telling me to move but her eyes kept me still. I saw pain in them and I looked down. Her nails were dug inside of my meat and the blood went sliding down her long and pale fingers and dripping to the ground. There was a small puddle of it. I didn't realized but I must have been screaming the whole time when her forefinger from the other hand landed gently across my opet mouth while she shushed me. Her look became sympathetic and worried.

"You poor helpless soul." –She murmured with great concern as she wiped the tears off my face. I broke out of my hypnotic state and tried moving my hand but as I did so her nails just went deeper in the flesh. She took my other hand and twisted it with ease.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you." –She said with a threatening tone. I yelped. She quickly clutched my wounded wrist with both of her hands.

"Please." –I begged with my weak and low voice not knowing for what exactly. She just smirked and kept on smelling the blood in which her hands were already stained. I noticed her eyes rolling in pleasure while her mouth dropped. 

My eyes went watery and my eyesight was blurry from all the tears. I closed them and screamed loudely although I was sure no one would hear me. I felt her icy breathe on my wound and my hand began to freeze. My teeth started to grind. Something sharp entered my skin. Her whole mouth was pressed against my wrist and her eyes widened. My knees fell and touched the wet ground. My whole hand felt like it had been ignited. My throat hurt from all the helpless yelling. The fire spread throughout my whole body.

 Then, it went completely numb. My vision went black and I couldn't feel anything but the warmth leaving my body slowly. Even the only noise I heard of her sucking faded. Unwillingly and barely conscious with the senses I was left with I noticed that every part of my body started giving up but I calmly let it be.
