My Cute Pet- Paranormal prompt

Finally, my dream has come true, I have gotten myself the best dog ever.

Well, saying it's a dog is not precise enough, after all, he is so much more. Perhaps you can guess what kind of dog it is?

Sparky is two times bigger than me. His enormous body is covered in the softest black fur that I have ever seen. His large red eyes shine brightly, thus, the name Sparkle. His huge, sharp teeth come in hand when he munches on his favorite food.

The problem is that Sparky doesn't love dog food. He prefers something a bit more...fresh. I found that out the hard way when I tried to pet him, and my hand came out of his fur bloody. Only then did I notice he was covered in stale blood.

Retracing Sparky's steps, I have come across the carnage he made in the neighbors' house. Well, I guess that solves our noisy neighbor problem!

"Good boy!"I say, patting my best friend and try to cover up his tracks.

It's not Sparky's fault that he is so awesome. We are all unique in some way.

If you haven't managed to guess from what I have told you so far, Sparky has had a different upbringing, since he is a hellhound.

I found him one day on my doorstep, and we became instant friends.

What I do mind, about him staying in my house, is the smell of death and decay that doesn't work well with the gentle rose fragrance I am usually using. After all, the unsuspecting victims should be just that, unsuspecting.

It might be challenging to conceal your true intention of slaughtering them when your whole house is saying 'death'.

However, we have found a solution. Whenever the need in me arrises to extinguish a life, Sparky goes hunting far away so that I can make the house presentable for my intended victims.

These days it's exceptionally easy to satisfy my cravings, so Sparky and I enjoy a very serene life in our lovely house with a white picket fence. Although, sometimes, we do have to wash away the blood from it. Life is good, as long as you have your best friend by your side.
