Once Caleb reached the bottom of the stairs he quietly opened the door and tiredly switched on the light "Jayden it isn't morning yet buddy you need to-" he froze in place staring at a man he didn't know standing in his living room.
The man stared back at him like a deer in the headlights, he looked a few years older than Caleb, had stubble growing around his face, dark brown greasy hair that wasn't styled in any particular way and was wearing full black aside from the muddy navy blue trainers he was sporting.
"Who the fuck are you and what are you doing here?" Caleb demanded in a hushed whisper, he also noticed the black backpack the stranger was carrying and the open living room window he'd clearly used to gain entry, the vase that was previously rested on the windowsill lay in pieces on the ground, that must've been the crash that had awoken Caleb from his tranquil slumber.
"Just a passerby, no one much" the strange man whispered back an air of mystery hanging about his every word.
"Inside my living room?" Caleb replied folding his arms and sizing the man up, after his beating earlier in the evening he wasn't exactly fighting fit, the intruder was also taller and muscly, there's no way Caleb would win if it came to a fight.
"Consider me Santa Claus alright? Now go back to bed kid" the man answered calmly pointing at the door as if Caleb was a child.
"I'm not a little kid anymore, I'm 18. Santa isn't real" Caleb responded harshly taking a step forward, the man noticeably took a step towards the window eyeing Caleb up with a smirk.

One night, a young man wakes up in an empty room. He looks around, but he doesn't recognize his surroundings.
Where is he?
Why is he here?
Who is he?
Why couldn't he remember anything?
Then he hears the squeaking sound of an old wooden door. He sees a figure. It is a beautiful young woman.
She smiles, "You're finally awake. Do you remember anything?"
The young man shook his head, but the questions have been burning on
his tongue. He couldn't resist it, so he asks, "Who am I?"
She gracefully and silently walks toward him, "You're Micah, my child."
Since that day, Micah slowly learned how to live in the darkness with his "siblings" and his "mother". They couldn't go outside and she provided everything they needed.
But one day, she disappeared, leaving them all alone.
Starved and afraid, they broke the rules and went outside. It is the same day that they learned what they really are.
They call them Vampires.
Decades later, Micah is always on the road looking for new preys. He never shows any interest in men until he gets an offer he cannot refuse. This is how he meets the man that will change his life.
Nikolas wants one thing and it is Micah.
