Once in a far off realm, there was a little girl who talked to her shadow. She spoke to it at dawn when she woke and at dusk before she slept. She spoke to others' shadows too. When they asked why she spoke to them so often, she would reply "Because they talk back." After that no one questioned her, They were too scared. Scared of what she could do, or who could do it for her.For they lived in a different time and a different place, where magic had long gone. But at night in her room the shadow would separate from her own, and then stabilize into a solid form then into a human body, of her own age. They would talk until she until asleep, the shadow would stare at her then morph back into her shadow.

"Humans. You always have to go sticking your nose where it just doesn't belong. There are repercussions but you silly mortals think everything revolves around you," he cooed in a deep voice. He turned me to face the wall and I felt his warm breath curling on my ear as he buried his nose in my hair. "Get off me. Let me go, creep," I tried to struggle out of his tight grip. He refused to let me go and let out a dark chuckle, a tight grip on my wrists as he pinned them to the wall by my head. He took one last deep breath. "You're going to learn not to go sneaking around, love," he smirked deviously. Before I could stop him he bit into the vein in my neck, taking deep gulps of the crimson liquid spilling onto my shoulder and seeping into the fabric of my shirt. I felt myself get dizzy and I curled into the man before falling into a deep sleep. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Imagine being forced into an entire other world you didn't even know existed.

One thing was still missing in his life despite everything he had. He was about to give up on love until he saw her. He smelled the blood running through her veins from a mile away. Knowing a human shouldn't have been where she was he found his way over to her. All he knew was two things: One, she was a mortal.
