I drive fast into the night and pray Ethan didn't feel my fangs start to poke through when we kissed. My fangs and my claws have fully sprouted and I can feel the dull ache in my back, knowing my wings are quick to follow.

I drive with one hand as I undress my torso, being careful not to crash. When I feel the urge to drink is too strong, I pull over by the woods. I run as fast as any Valkyrie can, praying my screams won't be heard. I gasp and collapse after running 4 miles or so. I scream as I feel my wings break the skin on my back. I smell my blood and continue to howl in pain in the night as my wings steadily become more and more visible.

Finally my wings are free and my Valkyrie skin heals. I smell a bear and begin the hunt. I attack it from the side and break its arms. It howls in agony and I can hear its heart beat faster. I stop torturing myself and latch onto its neck. Its warm blood meets my tongue and fills my stomach. I empty it too soon, my thirst still too strong. I rip it apart to make it seem like another bear attacked it. In the middle of the process, I hear a branch break.

"Ma'am are you ok?"

I turn and see a middle-aged man holding a flashlight, looking at me.

I hear him say "Holy shi─", but before he finishes, I've already got him by the waist. I slowly drain him of his blood, savoring my first taste of human blood in years. I drop his body and forget the promise I made to myself 150 years prior.


This is just a filler chapter, sorry for how short it is.
