Rain slashes the alleyway in silvered curtains, the only illumination a flickering bulb reflected in oily puddles. You’re clutching your coat close, head down against the storm, when the movement catches your eye—a tall, pale figure pinning a struggling shape against the brick.

In the time it takes to draw a shocked breath, he stands before you, rainwater tracing the sharp lines of his jaw. His lips part, revealing needle-sharp fangs. "Tell me," he says, his voice a low vibration in the drumming night. "Do you wish to be my next meal?" The question hangs between you, charged and deadly.
