Vampire's Pet
He sounded as if he was catching his breath as he slowly stood himself back onto his two feet.
His eyes were planted straight ahead, letting out a ridiculously long breath as he slowly ran a shaky hand through his hair, like an act to calm himself down.
Only then had I noticed that his nails had grown and sharpened, almost looking like claws.
This was what they were. What Nico was.
Monsters. Pure, terrifying monsters.
I sucked in a large breath, pushing myself back against the couch, partially hoping that it would just swallow me.
Apparently, I was a bit too loud because the next thing I knew, his eyes were staring right through mine.
