Summary
“Where are you going?” The woman asks her the second she turns around and starts walking away.
Narcissa stops, looking over her shoulder and raising both of her eyebrows. She should feel lucky that she escaped getting bitten, and she should let the vampire that was going to kill her go away because better someone, anyone else, than her. In society, a vampire always means nothing good. There are hunters for people like Narcissa.
“You…” The woman pauses. “You need blood, right?”
Narcissa blinks again. She doesn’t remember ever being this speechless around anyone before, and she keeps surprising her. “Yes,” She states, and gets ready to leave again. "I'm going to get it from someone else."
“You can take some of mine.” The woman offers, as if it’s a normal thing to say. As if she’s offering to help an old woman across the street, or a mother with her groceries.
“Why?” Narcissa asks, eyeing her warily.
“You need it.” She says simply.
----
Narcissa has lived a very long, very content life, one that has remained the same all these years with her family by her side - until she meets a human by the name of Alice whom leaves her speechless in the best way possible.
