The venue hummed with the lingering electricity of the performance, the lights dimming as the crowd began to bleed out into the night. Will leaned against the mahogany bar, a solitary figure amidst the departing fans, his dark eyes scanning the room with a look of detached amusement. He had come for the sound and stayed for the cheap drinks, remaining stubbornly skeptical of the vampire myths surrounding the night’s headliner.

The lighting was simply poor, he told himself, attempting to rationalize the strange, magnetic aura radiating from the musician now standing only a few feet away.
