         Elena saw her self in a dark room. Wondering how she got in there, she tried to find a way out. Walking towards the end of the room , she noticed there were no doors, no windows, just bare walls staring back at her. She tried to scream but she couldn't, only air escaped her lungs. Suddenly, fire materialised out of nowhere in her front. Stumbling back, she turned and saw that she was surrounded by the fire. 

         The fire came even closer to her. The heat was unbearable and she couldn't breathe properly. Resigning herself to her imminent death, she looked up and saw that the ceiling had caved open. It was impossible for her to jump out, the ceiling was beyond her reach.

         Just then, Alejandro poked his face in and let down a rope for her to climb out. As she held the rope to begin climbing, she felt a cold hand hold her back. Turning, she saw the Grim with a wicked grin on his face. Using his scythe, he cut off the rope and whispered to her.

          "You belong to me Frieda, there's no escape".

         As he said the words, she felt fire begin to burn her legs. Trying hard to get out of his reach, she fell and the fire consumed her. The last thing she heard before she died, was the Grim's wicked laugh.

       Elena woke up with a start, breathing very hard and found herself in cold sweat. That was the tenth time she had had that same dream. She felt a slow throbbing in her temple and lay back on the bed.

        After an hour of staring in the dark, she pushed her lovers body off of her and stood up from the bed. Going into the bathroom, she washed her face. As she was about leaving, she caught sight of her face in the mirror. Staring back at her with dark hollow eyes, was the face of a blood starved lady. It had been months since her last kill.

           Suddenly, she felt the desire to kill someone. Anyone. Staring at the figure in bed, she shook her head. His death was for some other time.

          Slipping into her clothes, she checked the time and saw it was just three in the morning. Sighing, she stood and walked out of the hotel room, her mind bent on getting her favourite food.

           As she closed the door to the room, her lover turned in bed. For a second, the moonlight illuminated his face before he turned again.

          Gianni Otello

        Elena's boss.

     Elena walked out of the lift into an empty lobby . Passing by a sleepy receptionist, she walked quickly towards the door without noticing the man seated in a darkened corner of the lobby.

       Standing up from where he had been sitting for the past two hours, Alejandro walked out of the door into the cold night, following Elena from a distance.

       Elena walked further on in the cold air to no place in particular. Looking back , she had the feeling someone was following her , but the street was deserted , apart from a few cars speeding past her once in a while. 

       Entering into a coffee shop, she was not surprised to see it was empty. A young man stood behind the counter reading something from a paper. He hadn't noticed Elena as she entered into the shop. Walking towards him, she studied him and decided he would be her meal for that night.

        Finally, she reached the counter and leaned on it. Clearly shocked, the young man stared at her, wondering why she was there and what she wanted.
      
         "Um. May I help you?' He stuttered.

           Smiling, Elena leaned even more, in a way that showed a lot of her attractive cleavage and looked at his name tag.

          " Yes. I'm really thirsty. If you know what I mean Tommy". She winked and walked behind the counter.

         The young man grinned from ear to ear as she began undressing herself. His throat was dry and he couldn't utter a single word. Standing before him was a very attractive woman offering herself to him for free. Thanking his stars for his good luck, he moved towards her and whispered "We can do it in the back"
  
         Shaking her head slowly, she climbed onto the counter completely naked now and gestured for him to come.

         He lumbered forward with cloudy eyes and they began kissing. Suddenly the lights went off. Startled, he tried pulling away from her, but she wasn't having it. She held him tighter and deepened the kiss. Then slowly, she began trailing her hands from his neck down to his back.

         Just as he was lost in ecstasy, she smiled as they kissed and bit his tongue. In pain, he tried pulling away for the second time, but she only tightened her grip on him and bit deeper into his tongue. Blood had begun seeping out from his mouth. Fear had consumed him now, he couldn't scream or push her away. He was completely powerless. Then she yanked out his tongue, slurping it in slowly.

        Grinning, she got of the counter, picked up her clothes and left a tongueless Tommy behind.
