Hey readers new and old, welcome to this fun little creation of mine. With this story, I wanted to try and fuse some concepts, and present something a bit different. With all of that being said, I would love any constructive criticisms you can give. Please enjoy this story!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Martin drove down the deserted streets gliding effortlessly as he let the radio drown out his own thoughts. He was careful not to make the ride too bumpy so that his darling girlfriend Mel could finish getting ready without a hitch. The stunning brunette was riding shotgun focusing on rolling the deep purple lipstick over her plump lips. As they pulled to a stop in front of a large home, Mel looked over to her boyfriend, through a pained smile she asked, "How do I look?" Martin wanted to be a good boyfriend and compliment her, it would have been the easiest thing to do. Mel was a gorgeous girl, whose straight locks fell around a tanned face. Tonight she decided to add more color to her face, decorating it in some expensive makeup he had gotten her for her birthday. Yeah, she was gorgeous, there was no doubt about it.
"You look, great dear," he said shortly while turning his attention back to the road, but not daring to keep going. He didn't mean to be short, but he couldn't help it. His inner rage and ego were screaming at the terrible circumstances he found himself in. Here he was driving his girlfriend to a date, that wasn't even for him. She was in the passenger seat getting dolled up for someone other than him. Gripping the wheel as if it was the neck of a man he hated, he sat there stewing in his own feelings.
"Baby," she said while lightly placing her hand on his arm, lightly gripping it. Martin flinched as her incredible strength forced him to give her his attention.
"Shit Mel," he hissed as he swung his head towards her. Staring back at him was not the usual blue eyes filled with kindness, but golden ones that seemed to stare at him with a mixture of hunger, and lust. Her purple lips were parted in a sorrow-filled frown, as she stared at him. Through the small crack of her lips, he could make out her gleaming fang. His anger disappeared as a new sense of urgency took him over. "It's happening huh?" he asked already knowing the answer.
Mel looked at him through her golden irises and tried to speak, her usual deep voice came out as a harsh growl as she said, "Yes." Martin could tell it took a lot of effort for her to say even that, so he simply kissed her on her cheek as he took her hand in his. Avoiding her sharpened nails, he gave her a look of understanding.
"You look amazing," he whispered as he pressed his lips to hers. Mel returned the kiss with three times the effort and clasped her hand around his. Martin winced but refused to pull away, he wanted her to know that he was there for her. As he dealt with the subtle loss of breath Mel pulled away, her eyes shining as if to tell him something. Martin moved his free hand up and brushed away a strand of her hair, and lightly stroked her cheek. Mel growled pleasantly as she rubbed her cheek against his hand. "Fuck I don't want to do this," he said, "But you need it." Pulling away he left out the car and walked to her side. Opening the door like a gentleman he helped her out of the seat, unbuckling the seatbelt, and lightly guiding her out of the vehicle.
Martin took another moment to look up at his girlfriend. The cream-colored heels gave her a few more inches of height and made her toned legs flex. Every curve of her slim but athletic body was hugged by a red dress, that let her strong feminine arms stay free. The man couldn't fight the conflicting emotions of lust and terror, as she stared down at him outlined by the glow of the house's lights. Martin swallowed as he recognized the slow fade of humanity from her eyes. Taking her hand in his he led her up the stairs to the front of the house. Raising his fist he unleashed a rapid series of knocks onto the ornate door and took a step back. The poor man was still uncomfortable as he wrung his hands together. He wanted so badly for them to hop into his car and turn around, but he knew it wouldn't be worth it. They were in a life and death situation, and he had stupidly chosen life. Mel wrapped her arms around her boyfriend and softly bit at his ear, a symbol of how she wanted to comfort him. Martin closed his eyes and sunk into his girlfriend's embrace.
The two were so focused on each other that they didn't notice the door open, and the sudden new source of light. Martin opened his eyes, slightly blinded by the inside of the house. Blinking once then twice he noticed a woman standing in the doorway. She was blonde who was a bit shorter than him, yet her very essence was that of a giant. Like his girlfriend, she was clad in a dress, but hers was a blue one that showed her shoulders and a considerable amount of her cleavage. On the very soft-looking breasts sat a golden necklace that easily could have cost a month's worth of his salary. The woman coughed lightly, causing her chest to shake and Martin to blush in embarrassment. "Good evening Liza," he said.
The woman stared at the couple, her disdain growing by the minute. She shared the same sentiments about the evening that Martin did, but she was going to do her best to try and be cordial, "Guys just don't stand there, get in here." She moved to the side and allowed the couple to enter, noticing just how far gone Mel was. Closing the door Liza sighed and guided her guests towards a room in the back of her house.
As they passed the various antiques of the elaborate mansion Martin felt it was his obligation to say something to break the rough tension. "You have a lovely home," he said regretting immediately.
Just before they made it to a door Liza turned around and started to address the man. "Look Martin, I know that this is awkward, but we can skip the pleasantries. I know that you're faking it anyway, so let's get this over with," she told the man. Mel growled, acknowledging the tension, but refusing to allow her mate to be disrespected. Martin tensed up and tried to step in front of Mel, he did not need her attempting to rip Liza apart.
A condescending giggle escaped Liza's lips, "Oh so you've already started losing control." It was a statement of truth, and nowhere deserving of the question tone she said it with.
