A Vampire’s Lament
Chapter 4: Dressed in Decay

"She does not see the pulsing veins, she does not feel her own restraints.
Before the eyes the beauty is wasting away…" -CKY

"So this is where you live. You’ve got quite a nice place for a shack, Spencer." I tell the beautiful girl sitting next to me in my car. She blushes furiously underneath the street lamp in front of her large palace-like home.

"Okay, so I admit it. It’s not exactly a shack but to me, I feel like it is because I feel so cramped inside." She replies honestly. I suddenly lean in a little closer to her and I find myself stroking her long dirty blond hair gently. Even though I’m not touching her skin directly, I can still feel the blood rushing to her cheeks again.

I moved a large area of hair that was covering her delicious neck and my fingers softly stroked the same spot I drew blood from a week ago. Spencer slightly moaned at my touch, grabbing the sleeve of my blouse and pulling me towards her. "Hey, don’t tease me like that. You’re a bit kinky, you know that?" She asks, softly laughing along with me.

I honestly couldn’t help it but because of my awesome powers, I can tell she likes my straight-forward personality anyway. I was so tempted to bite her neck, the taste of Spencer’s blood hanging at the tip of my tongue and I couldn’t have it. Instead, I aggressively pressed my tongue on my favorite spot and licked up until I reached her chin.

She was the best tasting mortal I’ve ever had the fortune of meeting.

"How did you like my goodnight kiss?" I ask playfully as I pull away from her politely. Spencer grinned and reached for my hand that was grasping the steering wheel nervously. "Saying goodnight already? Come on, I want you to meet the freaks I call family. I told them all how you’re my new favorite friend and they wanna know why." She said, unbuckling my seatbelt for me as though I were only a child.

She was telling the truth. Just the other morning when I went to sleep, I had an intimate dream that Spencer was sitting around a large dining table, talking about me to her friends and family. It was really cute to know that she was really enthusiastic about our friendship.
