Vampires Charm – They Can't Love You #Candlelight-Writers Prompts
Forget for one moment that you are looking at something vaguely human. Why are they really trying to charm you?
It is an act – a façade of fortune – a creature of the night that plays cat and mouse with its prey.
It has fangs, it is like a snake trying to seduce you into its jaws... the bottom line is that it is thirsty and wants to drain your blood!
A sharp, pointy stick through the heart (a stake) is enough to kill it, and sunlight burns it to dust... Once it is gone, it cannot come back, especially if it is decapitated.
Maybe they will spare you? Some long-lost act of compassion for as long as they dare... but they will always crave blood, human or otherwise.
But the vampire will always try to kill you in the end... It's in its blood after all!
I think we can all say together "Vampires Don't Sparkle!"
I'd say you got it just right
