A Vampire’s Charm

Vampires Don’t Growl

CLAIRE'S POV

I was floating through clouds of marshmallows. Yummy, I love marshmallows. I stuck my hand out and grabbed a chunk, stuffing it into my mouth. My mother wouldn't approve of my messy eating.

"You are definantley not your mother." I heard a deep voice ring out. I stopped chewing and tried to think of where I heard that voice from.

"Huh?" I called out, my voice muffled by the food in my mouth. I swallowed the chunk of marshmallow and landed on a cloud, looking down beneath the cloud. There was a bulky man, with tattoos over his arms and back. I felt my fingers itch to reach out and touch them.

His pitch black hair looked familiar, his rogue look, his pale skin. It all looked familiar and very attractive. He glanced up, a strong jaw, dark brown almost black eyes fading to red and fangs growing and peaking from his plump red lips. I sighed. I didn't fear him, it was weird.

Memories of what happened suddenly clouded my mind. I snapped from whatever trance I was in to see the wannabe vampire growl and leap at me. I screeched and fell off of my marshmallow cloud. Black spots coated my vision as one thought floated in my head.

'Hey, I was eating that!"

I woke up panting, covered in sweat. I was in the same room as before, except, it was empty and void of life forms. It was morning as I could see the sun rising as I glanced at the window. I wonder if that man and the girl with red hair was just a dream? It was strange but, I wasn't chained to the bed like before. I knew it wasn't a dream though, it felt too real. Plus, I had marks on my wrists that were red and irritated from the cuffs. I sighed and rubbed my wrists, trying to soothe away the redness. I tried to get up slowly from the bed, trying to not make a sound, but it was too late. The bed let out a low squeak at the shift from my weight and the door creaked open. I glanced up to see the wannabe vampire leaning at the doorway casually with a smirk.

"Did you sleep well?" He asked with a knowing look and a spark in his dark brown eyes. I could almost melt in them, not. I frowned.

"You growled at me in my dreams." I stated confused. His smirk grew wider as his eyes grew darker.

"It happens." He winked. I paled and almost instantly after turned beet red. I shook my head wildly.

"No! I mean, you kinda growled as in 'arghh I'm gonna murder you growl'." I stated with hand gestures, trying to make it seem as if I had claws. He raised an eyebrow and I sighed.

"Vampires don't growl." I stated. With that, he let out a chuckle, it rumbled throughout his chest. Pink tinted my cheeks in embarrassment. Stupid kidnapper.

"Would you rather me hiss, love?" He asked with another laugh. I glared.

"Why am I here? Where is that red head girl?" I asked wanting to get at least a little answers without being annoying. Screw it, I'm allowed to be annoying, after all, I was the one kidnapped. He sobered up almost instantly.

"I took care of her." He had a dark expression on his face. I choked on my saliva. He shook his head.

"I didn't kill her if that's what you think." He stated it with a tone that basically said 'no more questions'. I sighed. Maybe it'll be like in those books where I can be best friends with vampires? Maybe he has WiFi? No, I can't intrude and just ask like that. My mother would shake her head at my rude thoughts.

"Are you hungry?" He asked, giving me and observing stare. I waited for my stomach to grumble in response like in those books but, it stayed silent. I wasn't gonna wait all day for my stomach, so instead, I nodded wildly. He let out another chuckle, his smile lines acting as if they were dimples showing. His smile was beautiful, but I wasnt gonna tell him that. He reached out and left his palm open. I put my hand in his ice cold hand and shivered as he helped me off of the bed.

"Your hands are freezing!" I stated as he smiled.

"Its not nice to pick out peoples flaws. Wouldn't your mother not approve?" He joked as I smiled. Maybe he's not so creepy? He's not on my creep radar, just as long as he doesn't lick my neck anymore. I have to find a way out of here.
