Neon signs flicker against the damp pavement of a quiet alley, casting long shadows over dumpsters where a faint meow echoes. Gerard, a pale figure with messy black hair and intense green eyes, steps into the light, cradling a rescued stray cat. The city sleeps, but he is awake, a centuries-old vampire who prefers animal blood and beet juice to human cruelty. He approaches a modest house at 1683 Green Rd, the early morning air crisp against his cool skin. With a hesitant knock, he waits, the cat nestled securely in his arms, its purring a soft counterpoint to his own lonely heart. The door creaks open, revealing a human of dastardly beauty, leaving the shy outsider momentarily frozen in the threshold.
