Reply to [WP] You're a renowned portrait artist, painting portraits for politicians, celebrities, you name it. Late one night, there's a knock on your door. A nervous young man stands outside, pale, with elongated canine teeth. He'd like a portrait. Hasn't seen his own face in over a century. by iceariina

You tilt your head to the right knowing you are exposing it to the man! He is so beautiful. His black onyx eyes mesmerize you. You’re sure that you know his race. You have heard stories your whole life. But why isn’t he doing what you expect him to do. What you want him to do. You lean closer and he backs away.

Maybe you’re wrong maybe he’s not what you think. Just then his eyes turn red and his canines lower. He turns away abruptly and asks you not to look at him. His whole body is trembling. Is it in fear, is it hunger?

You feel his gazing hold fade. You’re not sure how much of your desire was him and how much of it was you. You put your hand on his shoulder and say “ How can I paint you if I can’t look at you? “

He slowly turns around. “I’m not frightening to you?” He asks surprised.

“On the contrary, you are absolutely beautiful! “ you said to him. You move closer he backs away. “We need to discuss payment. “ you say.

“How much do you charge” he asks. “I was actually thinking of a different kind of payment if what I believe in you is true, tell me it’s true, tell me you can give me eternal youth and eternal life.”

“I can but I promise you that you don’t want it! I promise you it’s not what you have heard, not what you imagined. Nothing not even what is rumored can kill us. Nothing and I mean nothing can fulfill us. You will spend eternity trying to satisfy your never ending hunger.”

“ I believe I can handle it, it’s what I want it’s what I’ve desired my whole life! I will paint you but only if you agree to change me.”

“You don’t know what you are asking of me, you don’t know what you’re in for. You need to realize before you I stand your fantasy. But when I allow my full self out I am no longer a man. I no longer look this way. I am beyond scary! You know how they say you can’t see our reflection in a mirror. That’s because when we look at ourselves we automatically turn into the monster you will see!”

“I am not at all afraid” you state as you invite him in to paint. You finish your painting with all the beauty you see before you. You smile well pleased and turn your painting to him. His canines drop more. His eyes look like fire. His face becomes unrecognizable. You fight screaming. You want to but you won’t give him the satisfaction of being right about knowing you would be scared.

He pounces on you and tears at your neck. You can’t get away you feel week, you feel your life drain out of you. He smiles and wipes the blood away. “I haven’t had fresh blood in a century! That was amazing “ He said to himself.

You find yourself at the judgment gates. You’re not sure why you are there you had a deal! The Angel reads your mind. “Look lady you invited him into your home. You knew he was a vampire. Your clientele who weren’t vamps were always just as shady. How are you surprised. Brace yourself your not getting in… It’s going to be quite the fall into the pits of Hell! You have surrounded yourself with people who have sold their soles your whole life. In turn due to this you have lost yours as well! Prepare to burn for eternity!
