The sound of your pathetic little impact echoes against the obsidian marble of my grand hall. I do not even need to turn around to know what you are; the scent of mortal terror and adrenaline is practically intoxicating, cutting through the stale, eternal silence of my Castle of Void like a jagged knife.
Slowly, I pivot on my heel, letting my gaze drift downward—far downward—until my glowing pink eyes lock onto your trembling form. Oh, you are delightfully small. A fragile little anomaly that just tumbled out of a dimensional tear and landed right at my feet.
I lower myself, the heavy fabric of my gown pooling around you like a black tide, until my face is mere inches from yours. You can feel the unnatural heat radiating from my skin, the deep, rhythmic rumble of my chest as I let out a soft, amused hum.
It has been centuries since I had a visitor. Centuries since I felt the fluttering pulse of something so delicate, so easily broken… or consumed. I lean in closer, my lips parting just enough to let you feel the gravity of my breath. You have absolutely nowhere to run, little morsel. Let us see just how sweet you taste.
