A Vampire's Charm

Shadows Of The Moon

Claire's POV

         
                    My hands slither their way into his raven locks of hair, and suddenly I feel safe. Suddenly- I'm the same pop tart loving Claire that was saved by this vampire that terrified the living daylights out of her. And suddenly I was craving something sweet- maybe brownies? Note to self, make brownies when we get out of here.

            Our lip lock is cut short as hands come between us fast and basically launch me across the room, like a rocket. A rocket that was pissed.  (A/N- YEET AHAAAAHAA)

          I glance up and see her.

         Crimson flared locks of hair, catlike eye slits and a demonic smile upon her sly face. Celmira.

          I get up fast on my two feet, and greet her with a glass shard darted at her face. Anger envelopes me and I feel my face start to turn blood red with heat. The familiar fire running through my veins as I look at my prey. She glances at the glass shard that she dodged. She laughs a bit and starts to turn her head towards me.

             "Really? That's all you got-" she gets interrupted as I send my blue flames to circle her body, as if they had taken a life of their own. Moving swiftly like shadows, a circle of fire traps her. One flame starts to lick up her boot, and I grin.

           "You'll get your turn soon little one." I say slowly as I start to walk towards her. I notice how I must sound to atticus, crazy. My intention is to be wild, vicious, and ravenous for blood. I bare my teeth at her in a snarl as she starts to back up.

             "My, my, my..." She starts. A flame jumps towards her hair and she jumps away.

            "Atty, I think your bloodbag has gotten stronger..." She grins.

       "But not strong enough." She takes a dagger and flings it at my head. I start trying to dodge it, but fail to do so. It buries itself in my shoulder, and I stifle a groan of pain. Bitch. Rage fills me even more, and my flames desperately swirl around the demonic puta. They want to be done with this already, as do I. But her eyes start to glow a flueresent purple- and I fear that this won't be over as easily as I intended it to.

          I glance towards atticus to see him staring intently at me. His eyes make its way to the dagger imbedded in me and I see his fists tighten, fury clouds his eyes. I mouth to him 'no. She's mine.' But he still tries to step forward. Valdus grabs him and points to the walls.

          "They're here." He says fearfully.

       Shadows start to grow on the walls, and a feeling of dread calls upon me. My gaze flickers to Celmira.

         "Who?" I question. She starts to cackle.

         "Who's here?" I growl out, impatient enough as it was. I was not ready to fight an army. But I would if I had to, and I'd die trying. She starts to make 'tsk'ing noises. She glances at me under her lashes and pouts.

           "Did you really think I'd be up here all alone, darling? I can smell your fear." Her eyes glow an even brighter shade of purple. My flames start lowering to the ground as I notice what she must be doing, how she gets her power. This is just the beginning.

          I glance to the windows, the room is filled with them. We should've came at night, she's pulling energy from the sun. The holdrex realm's sun. But how? We are in a completely different dimension. I was never really taught about the suns in each dimension, so I was ignorant to this. There could be a possibility that this dimension had the same sun. And if that was true- then we were in deep shit.

         The shadows start to seep out of the walls paint, growing crooked fangs, and dark purple lit eyes. Just like her. They also must get their power from the sun, there's too many windows, we won't be able to win. Hundred start to form coming in all directions, surrounding us.

         Merlin glances at me.

        "What do you suggest we do?" He looks at me for confirmation, but I have a feeling that he already knows what to do. I send a message to his scattered old man brain.

          "The windows, cover them."

    He nods and raises his arms.

        He starts whispering an incantation, but I don't think he'll make it in time. The shadow vampires start to make moves to come to us, and I see valdus and Atticus take out their weapons.

         The doors swing open and all of our head whip to see what just came in. Or who just came in.

        It was Adelle and the blue eyed man whose mate is lying dead three floor below us. My allies.

         I don't think that i've ever seen merlin's head whip back so fast. I'm scared that he might have just broken his neck to look at them. His eyes go wide and I find myself wondering why he was staring at the man so hard. Then I also take a moment to realize that I never got a chance to catch the mans name. Ah well, I guess its for another time. My eyes flicker between Merlin and the man, and I realize that I was wrong. Merlin was not shocked at the man- in fact, he wasn't looking at the man at all.

        He was staring wide eyed at the lovely Adelle. And I also took the moment to realize- that she was staring right back at him. I furrowed my eyebrows, and study how the shadows had froze, and had begun to shrink back. They had also noticed Adelle, and they seemed terrified. I wondered why. Why would strongly powered demons be so terrified of a mere child?

         Merlin outstretched his arms to her.

      "Join me in this incantation." his voice rumbles throughout the room, and I feel Celmira grow uneasy. Celmira takes a step forward, and I realize, they must be terrified because now there are two wizards. And by the look on her face, I'm guessing powerful too.

             Well I guessed wrong. Well, correct, but that's not why they were so terrified. I realized the truth as soon as Adelle took a step towards Merlin and opened her mouth. Valdus sucked in a breath. Her eyes stayed on Merlin the entire time.

                "Papa." She said.
