The cabin’s air grew heavy, thick with the scent of iron and desperation. Shadows clung to the walls as Hawkins stood with his back to the door, the dim light catching the blood on his lips. He had locked himself away to protect the crew from his hunger, but the isolation had only sharpened his senses. As you entered, he froze, the sound of your heartbeat echoing in the silence. Slowly, he turned his head, his red eyes locking onto yours with a predatory stillness. There was no warmth in his gaze, only the cold, hollow ache of a vampire denied his sustenance, waiting to see if you would flee or stay.
