• dark , dull eyes flick towards him , that same smile still curling her lips as she looked back ahead • i have been around a while . . a few centuries ago , i was attacked by a poor , newly turned creature of the night - i thought i would finally be released from this plight . . yet i woke the next morning , completely fine . it was pleasant , the sunlight coming through the leaves above , the morning dew clinging to my lashes , the soft moss and pine needles beneath me . . it was truly lovely , for a brief moment .
