Feliciano
That woman whispered softly in my ear,
"It will be alright"
"I will take care of you"
Lies I could not see through
blinded my sight.
Her apple red lips moved slowly,
whispering empty words unfamiliar to me.
I placed my trust in the one who should be trusted most.
Yet, seeing her dress drenched in blood as she crouched over my father's corpse,
frightened me.
The last thing I whispered
was a weak,
"Mother?"

"Do you know what I love more than a nice breakfast?" Feliciano asked, a dangerous smile on his lips.
"...No..."
He seems awfully hungry this morning, yet he didn't touch his meal at all. Now that he led me back in the kitchen, I can't help but wonder what the man wants.
"Heh..."
For some odd reason, Feliciano picks up a knife and begins twirling it around. My throat tightens up and I can feel cold sweat begin to form on my neck.
" What are you doing--that's dangerous!"
"Woops."~
This is bad... the knife almost tumbled out of his hands! It seems like the vampire is doing this on purpose, hoping to get a reaction out of me. Maybe if I distract him, he'll finally give up.
"Feliciano, why didn't you eat anything this morning? I heard your stomach growling..."
At my words, he stops spinning the knife and glares directly at me. Even though his eyes are slicing through me, a sweet smile is on his lips.
"You didn't answer my question, bella."
"I... er..."
He sets the knife down on the countertop, stepping closer. The air around us becomes frigid and I feel the same tenseness from the previous night. Instinctively I cover my neck with a hand, which is covered by wounds in the middle of healing.
"So you do know. Hehe, you try to cover the truth, just like her... But, I won't be fooled that easily."
"Mn?!"
All of a sudden, Feliciano's lips are on mine.
Soft...
He nips at my lip, sucking the blood seeping out from it.
"Ha... This is a warning. Don't even think of lying to me if you want to be spared, bella."
He took a step back, letting out a chuckle, "I'll let you off for today, all right?"~
Once again, the man is back to his cheerful aura. Although I want to ask who he was talking about with such vengeful eyes, I decide not to. This house is full of surprises, yet I'm beginning to feel the urge to understand its inhabitants better.
