“You are not human or one of us.” I broke the silence. “What are you?” I wanted to know. Her smell was very strange, lingering softly in the air. I couldn’t put my finger on it.

Blood rushed to my face when I realized that this Valterra was the birthday present my wife had asked me for just last week.
