I opened my room to face the darkness. But before I could switch on the lights, a figure in the corner of my room made me freeze. My brain pleaded with me to shout but my body didn't comply, the stranger's eyes had me enslaved to his will.

Unknowingly I took a step towards the figure clad in black, his face was hidden in the shadows. The only features that could be seen were his honey golden eyes, pulling me towards him with an invisible force.

"Who are you?" The words finally made through my mouth.

"That doesn't sound like a correct question, love. Shouldn't you be asking 'Are you going to kill me?' or 'What do you want from me?'." His voice was deep as it reverberated through my empty room, he took a step out of the shadow, revealing his pale face and rose lips.

"How did you get in, there's a grill?" That made him chuckle.

"That's what you are concerned about? Well then, there was a grill. No more."

I glanced behind him, the safety grill was taken out precisely, unlike how imagined a monster would have broken through.

"I saw your Instagram post saying that you didn't get a Hogwarts letter, you didn't find a magical cupboard, and now finally that you are turning 18 all you want is a vampire. So I thought I'll come give you a birthday gift."

Words left me, I had no air in my lungs to voice out my thoughts. It was nothing like the books I had read, nothing here was romantic, only dread and fear.

"So tell me what is that you wanted love?"

"Isn't it more like what you want to take from me?"

"Why would you think that?"

"Blood- aren't you a vamp?" Another chuckle as he crossed through the room until we were sharing the same breath. A finger beneath my chin, made me look into the mesmerizing golden orbs.

"Do you feel this is hot or is it sexy? What part of someone sucking out your life is hot?"

"Isn't it?" I said daring to touch his chest right in front of me, if it was to pull him close or push him away, I had no idea.

"My blood running through your veins, as if we are one. Me keeping you alive, while you hold the reigns of my life in your fingers."

His hands traveled to my head, fingers sifting through my hair until his hand reached the base of my neck pulling me to him, I could feel his breath right above my jugular vein. My heart pounded loud enough, to cover every other voice in the world.

"You should have treasured your life whilst you had it. Happy Birthday, love."

"If that's what you want then kill me." Death had never felt so sweet.

"No my love, I have better plans." He said before piercing through my soft skin.

And the next day, indeed I was reborn.
