Twilight bled into the alleyway, casting long, jagged shadows. You heard the ragged gasps of a figure slumped against the brickwork. Approaching cautiously, you recognized Johnny Kavanagh, your brother’s best friend. But something was wrong. His skin was pallid, sweat beading on his brow, and as he looked up, the dim light caught the glint of elongated fangs. His eyes, dilated with primal hunger, locked onto yours. "Stay away, you..." he rasped, his body trembling with the effort of restraint. The air grew heavy with the scent of copper and desperation. He was a vampire, starving and on the brink of losing control.
