Between the Vampire and the Deep Blue Sea

Thoughts

I followed him. Where I didn't know. The only thing I knew was the overwhelming hunger that was deeply prominent at the back of my throat.

We seem to reach a building. I have no idea what this building is. It had no lights or signs signifying what it was.

Solomon enters. Wanting to be anywhere but here I had no choice in the matter. My mind was somewhere else as my body simply followed after him.

The both of us walk through a narrow hallway walking past two right hand corners and walking through a single doorway that gave way to thunderous night club with a single intake of breathe the gnawing hunger was ravenous. Pulling on her inner morals she swallowed the hunger down and tried her hardest to pay it no mind all while following after Solomon.

"Why did you take me here?"

Even in a loud room filled with music and people vampire hearing was a hundred times more clear and she knew he could hear her loud and clear. Although it seemed to her that he was ignoring her ushering her through a hidden way behind a curtain.

Was this the V. I. P.  area or something? I thought when the music was dimmed and was only a thrumming.

"I brought you here because you need to learn to feed. This place is much like your vampire bar back in your hometown. "

So this was Paris' version of a Fangtasia - a man and a women came in looking visibly glamoured.

"I want to make this as easy as possible for you. This can be a good and pleasurable experience for you you know?"

At that moment she wanted to stick her tongue out in defiance it was childish yes but that's the way she felt. All of this was just wrong she knew. This life was just borrowed time. If only she had died back then then she wouldn't have to be in this place.

And like that she was reminded of Godric. Eric's maker.

He had lived over two-thousand years. In his final moments he had shared his views on immortality. That it was wrong for them to exist and the many sins he had committed darkened a part of him. Meeting the sun was most liberating experience at the end by the glee and utter joy his last smile held before he burned into ash before her eyes.

That's when it hit her. Her life might be on borrowed time. But maybe this new life could get her that much closer to understanding Godric and even Eric and Bill more.
