"Amaya cocked her head to one side and sniffed deeply. From where she was perched on the end of the banister, she could smell the subtle ecstasy that was young blood. It was pumping through his veins as freely as the river before it plummets into the pool. It made Amaya’s mouth run dry just smelling it – imagine the taste. It was enough to make her lose all control and pounce on him. The boy in front of her trembled so much Amaya could hear his joints sliding around. She smiled – the hungry smile she always used on victims. Her eyes shone red and one corner of her mouth slid up in a wolf like smirk. Slowly she ran her tongue over her fangs, her mouth slightly open so the boy could see. Amaya could hear his heart about to pack up and stop beating. Amaya laughed softly, the kind of laugh that would send chills running all over a victim’s body. The boy gulped loudly, then stood up straight and cleared his throat.
‘Bless him.’ Amaya thought. He was trying to be brave. Maybe she would humour him. Besides, that made it more fun...."
