Land of shadows

Elizabeth

Alex traveled fast,with his demonic flames traveling behind him,he rushed through the dark rift.His tracker eyes helped him stay on coarse.
Finally,he had arrived.He deactivated his tracker eyes,the blackness slowly fading from his brown orbs.He smiled.He smelled thousands,no.Millions of souls.Some smelled sweet,others foul.He was glad no one in the human world could see him,until he bit them of course.
But then,Alex found the scent he was looking for.He closed his eyes,inhaling slowly through his nose.Her soul smelled the sweetest of them all.Alex couldn't exactly explain what her soul smelled of,and it drove him insane.

Elizabeth walked down the crowded city sidewalk.The occasional jerk bumping into her and yelling.She shrugged them off and continued walking.Home wasn't too much farther,her apartment was one of the city's outcasts."Damn,I forgot about rent..Oh well,I'm not too far behind,my paycheck should come so-"Elizabeth was cut off by a sudden chill.She shivered,the hairs on the back of her neck rose.She looked behind herself,not many people cane down the way she did.Simply turn down the third ally way that was on the right side of town square and home was only five minutes away.
Elizabeth gulped,she was scared.Elizabeth was very timid,she was trembling.
She turned back around and ran as fast as her skinny legs would carry her.
~~~
Alex grinned.This brunette certainly could run fast.Alex didn't need to run to catch up to her.Inhaling once more,he smiled."I know your scent,I can find you at any time.Elizabeth."
~~~
Elizabeth ran inside of her apartment.Breathing heavily,she locked her door,rushing to each window she closed the black curtains.She ran to her room and slowly lied on her queen sized bed.She could hear her heartbeat through her ears.She breathed heavily,her shoulders heavin.
~~~
Alex smiled wide.He could smell Elizabeth's fear,almost hear her heartbeat.He licked his fangs."She's tempting me to come early...This is getting difficult.But I have to control myself."Alex told himself.He thought about about how fast her heart would beat when he finally bit her.
~~~
After what seemed like forever,Elizabeth had calmed herself.She Sat on her bed,kicking her black pumps off of her feet.Her room was cold due to her leaving the ac on.It was always cold in Chicago.The wind would chap her lips if she ever forgot to wear her chap stick.
Elizabeth slowly got off of her bed.Her black and white stockings rubbed against her black carpet as she walked,causing static to build up.When she touched her doorknob,it shocked her."Ouch.."She mumbled.She was honestly used to it.
She walked through her apartment,turning the lights back on.On right was her living room.The flat screen TV was on a glass stand.In front of the TV was a black,soft loveseat that was annoyingly turned too far to its left.And a wide bookcase was to the left of the loveseat,a few pictures of Elizabeth's family was sitting on top of it,as well as a round,white vase her grandma gave her before she had passed away.And a long couch,which matched the loveseat,was against the wall.A window,which was still closed due to the curtains,set just above the couch.Elizabeth's locked door right next to it.
And on Elizabeth's left was the kitchen.The cabinets were above the stove and kitchen sink.A microwave and toaster was on the white counter top.The refrigerator was against the wall,a list of contacts was held on its door with a scull magnet.And at the center,was a wooden kitchen table.The chairs neatly pushed in,the kitchens lights sat above the kitchens table.
Elizabeth turned the loveseat to its correct position and walked to her bedrooms bathroom.
She turned the"H" handle all the way it could go and turned the "C" handle halfway.Water streaked down,creating a little steam in the bathroom.Elizabeth grabbed a bottle of strawberry scented body wash and her Ausse shampoo and conditioner.Setting them inside the shower,she grabbed a red towel and a white wash rag out from under the bathroom sink.She slowly undressed,the cold air gave her goosebumps as she stepped inside of the shower.
~~~
Alex walked down Chicago's streets.The cold breeze felt amazing to him."Hey,STOP!"Alex stopped walking and turned his head.Someone had stolen a woman's handbag,and was running away.Alex activated his tracker eyes and examined the thief.
'Matt Thorson
42 years old
Not married
No children'
Alex sighed.He looked at Matt Thorson.He was running across the street and he stopped.Alex had complete control over him."Death."Alex muttered.A truck came down the street quickly.Hitting and killing Matt Thorson.
~~~
Elizabeth coated herself in her body wash.She learned her head forward and washed the conditioner out of her short,brown hair.Once she washed her body of,she turned the water off and stepped out of the shower.Elizabeth wrapped the towel around herself and walked through her room and to her dresser.She ignored the cold and took the towel off,drying her hair with it.Now nude,she opened her top dresser drawer and pulled out a black,lacy bra and matching boy shorts out.She dressed into her under clothes and walked to her closet.She pulled out a black T-shirt and matching night shorts and quickly got dressed.Elizabeth walked to the living room and sat in the loveseat,checking her watch."11:55 already?.."She yawned,noticing how tired she was.She played her head back in the chair and fell asleep.
~~~
Alex was outside of Elizabeth's apartment.He was excited.He kept wondering what her blood tasted like.She was a virgin he knew,thanks to his tracker eyes,so her blood would be pure and clean.He smiled to himself and walked through Elizabeth's door."Finally.."Alex muttered.There she was,asleep.Helpless.Alex licked his lips as he settled himself next to Elizabeth,breathing softly on her neck.He counted down to midnight."3...2...1.."Then,Alex bit down onto Elizabeth's neck.
