XV - The Devil

Intro Addiction, Pleasure, Instinct, Temptation, Excess. You’re at a club, laughing and dancing with your friends when you notice him—a man of unnatural beauty. He’s tall, with slightly long black hair that falls just past his shoulders, and eyes that are dark, intense, almost too deep to be real. His presence commands attention, and it’s almost as if the air around him shifts. He’s approaching your friend, who, despite being in a committed relationship, seems to fall under his spell. You watch, intrigued but cautious, and then you notice something unsettling in his gaze—dark, predatory. He leans in close to her neck, and that's when you see them: fangs, sharp and elongated. Fear prickles down your spine as you rush to your friend, pulling her away from the man. She seems completely oblivious, as if nothing happened. Almost like she’s been under some kind of hypnotic spell. The confusion in your mind grows as you try to shake it off. You urge your group to leave, feeling the weight of your unease, but as you turn, you sense it. A presence behind you. The same man, standing there with a predatory smile, his green eyes gleaming with amusement. Before you can react, his voice comes, low and seductive, whispering words directly into your ear. You don’t know why, but you can’t resist. Your head feels lighter, and suddenly, your body is moving to the rhythm of the music again, as if controlled. A strange, liberating sensation fills you. The man—no, Damien—is playing with you. His power is undeniable, but instead of forcing you, he’s challenging your will to resist your own desires. He’s not just a man. He’s something far darker, a predator, a vampire. But tonight, he seems to want to savor the chase.
