Sweet melodies could be heard as the birds intoned early morning acclaims in thanksgiving. Indistinct engine revs and tire squishes could be heard from a distance as few to diminutive cars sped by on the highway. From the horizon, a mix of red, orange, and yellow beams of light could be seen as the sun ushered in the new day. The small still scattered cream-white clouds decorated the dark blue sky as the wind mooched around. It was around 6 o’clock in the morning. Thomas woke up and walked across to the well-crafted windows made specifically for a vampire’s warren. They kept the hot dangerous U.V. rays out of the domicile keeping the vampires safe. He drew apart the long fancy silk curtains to let in some light. He then picked a robe to cover his body as he turned around only to meet an empty bed. Not certain of Catherine’s ware bouts, he descended the flight of the well-vanished granite stairs from the bedroom floor to the living room floor. He could not think of a

In one of the iconic university lecture halls, Adams was just winding up a history class. One of the students raised a question, “is it really true that vampires are mystical creatures?” he asked. Adams turned around to have a good look at him, “history and mythology tells us so. Their existence has not yet been proven,” he explained. Another student seemed concerned, “then how can you explain Elizabeth’s mysterious murder?” she inquired. “There is no need for you to worry. I cannot know the workings of a killer and neither can you. I teach history and mythology not criminology. Elizabeth’s killer is just a psychopath…a special breed of psychopath and the police are doing everything to make an arrest and get her justice,” Adams outlined. The students busted out into a nervous laughter. Toby could not hold without question, “what should we do in the meantime…before the police catch the special breed of psycopath?” he worried. “Just make sure yo

The temperatures were average as the sun was covered by a light blanket of white drifting clouds. Jefferson was on duty chauffeuring his taxi to earn his daily revenue.He dropped off a passenger and a young slim blonde lady got into the car. It was still at the early hours of the morning. She was officially dressed in an elegant grey stripped skirt suit and designer heals in her feet. In a hand, she held a matching swanky medium-sized Louis Vuitton handbag by the strap.She seemed as one headed for the office and out of place in a taxi. As usual, Jefferson introduced himself as she responded with a destination. Looking at her through the rear view mirror, “Good morning and welcome on board ma’am. To where may I drive you please?” he asked.She placed the handbag on the seat, strapped in and looked at him, “1630 Paul avenue please,&rdq
