I watch her pad slowly down a side street, light jacket open in the balmy heat to reveal a cheap polyester waitress uniform. She'd be prettier if she smiled more, all dimples and blonde hair tied up in a neat bun. Honestly, I'm doing this one a favour.
I can hear her heartbeat from up here - slow, methodical, consistent. She's walked this route home every night for almost a year, ever since she got the waitress job. It wasn't exactly a career choice. Eventually, she figures, the right person will read one of her poems and things will turn around. She has an acoustic guitar that she keeps meaning to learn how to play, but she never will.
I know this because I've been in her apartment. I've watched her walking home. I've stood up on this fire escape a hundred times without her even noticing. Too busy looking down to see the danger above her.
She's not the only one, of course. I keep a few girls on my radar at any one time. Tonight it could have been the Korean girl preparing to elope with her secret boyfriend, or the skinny hooker on 6th Street. But I want to taste the blonde tonight. I've stood in her apartment and watched her sleep, indulging in the aroma of her blood. I've teased and denied myself long enough.
She will be the third girl; I'll probably wait a week or two and finish off with another before I leave town. It's important to keep moving. You can't hide every body perfectly; eventually, you make a mistake and a pattern starts forming. Not that I'm particularly concerned. I keep a variety of fake IDs on me. I've had enough time to develop some quite impressive accents and learn some quite varied languages.
Time is one of the few things I have in abundance. Time and hunger.
The edge of my vision is red and I can feel my teeth pressing against my lips. You can only control it for so long, though like anything else, that becomes easier with practice. I'm everything you expect me to be - tall, dark and handsome, all pale skin and dark grey eyes. And naturally, what you see is far different from what you get.
For the first time, I let her know that I'm there.
Some prefer to seduce; they like the taste of lust on their lips. I enjoy it myself, but sometimes you want some fear. Fear is as primal as lust and has an added kick when you swallow it. I let her hear soft footsteps on the fire escape, but slip into the shadows before she can spot me. I leap easily and quietly from one to the next, then skip across the alley and land with a crash on the other side.
That's got her moving.
She looks back once more and that's when I let her see me, falling from about fifteen feet above her. I have her in my embrace before she can take a breath and my teeth have pierced her neck before she can scream. The bite has a paralytic effect, freezing the vocal chords so she can give little more than a gasp as I greedily suck on the wound. I feel nothing less than elation, hot blood shot through with terror running through my throat.
I'm almost done when he enters from the opposite end of the street. Shit! Shit! I should have heard him coming, but I was too busy enjoying the kill. She's almost gone now, but I wanted to make this neater. Now I don't have any choice but to hide the truth as best I can.
I bite hard into her throat and tear out a chunk around the bite. I wish I'd had time to use my knife. I could kill him, too, but then I have twice as mig a mess to clean up, which is never fun on a full stomach. But with my hunger sated, my mind is clearer. He's running forward, a thick-necked bull of a man. I drop the girl and regret the lost claret pumping weakly from the wound.
I spin away and rush back into the darkness. I am shadow, I am mist. And then I'm gone.
