The Hunter and the Vampire
I steeled myself, and I dodged Alice’s lunge, barely missing her teeth by a fraction of an inch.
Those behind her were drenched in shadow, but I could make out an array of dark faces, each with their own set of blinding teeth. The bodies attached to the mouths did not matter, just as the stories and emotions behind each creature did not give them humanity. They were monsters, and their eyes were all fixed on me.
I was the hunter, not the hunted. I was the predator, not the prey. Fight to the door, I told myself, focusing on the cool metal hilt of the knife.
