His teeth stung as they punctured
her skin.
Samantha had always thought she
knew exactly how this moment would go. The Hollywood-handsome stranger would
swoop in; place one paper white finger under her chin, gently lifting it to
expose her neck, while his other hand found a home on the small of her back.
Then he would then lean in and drink her blood from an exposed vein in her
neck. There may have involved some swooning on Samantha’s behalf, but she
hadn’t made up her mind about that.
Unfortunately Samantha discovered
that the harsh reality was; allowing an undead stranger to attach himself to
her neck and extract blood from her was horrifically painful. Samantha was
stood in an uncomfortable position for a prolonged period of time and the act
itself was somewhat awkward and clumsy, especially when said handsome stranger
couldn’t find a vein. In short, it was the least romantic thing Samantha had
ever endured. Losing her virginity crashed in at a close second.
When Isaac eventually lifted his
head, they stood in awkward silence before he cleared his throat, averted his
eyes and muttered, ‘thanks.’
