Hello everyone, I hope you like my writing work.
Chapter 1: The Unexpected Encounter
The night fell gently over the city, enveloping it in a cloak of shadows and twinkling lights. The modern metropolis never slept, but there were corners where the darkness was deeper, more impenetrable. In one of these corners, in a 24-hour café, a young man sat at a table by the window, observing the bustle of the neon-lit streets.
Daniel Parker was an investigative journalist, always in search of the next big story. His gaze was fixed on his laptop, but his mind wandered, seeking inspiration among the incomplete notes and articles. It was then that she entered.
At first, he didn't notice her presence. He was too absorbed in his thoughts. But a gust of cold air, which shouldn't have been there, made him look up. She stood at the entrance, a tall and slender figure, wrapped in a long, dark coat. Her eyes, a deep and hypnotic blue, met Daniel's, and in that instant, he knew his life was about to change forever.
The woman approached slowly, as if floating above the ground. She sat across from him without asking permission, and Daniel, surprised, couldn't find the words to stop her. She smiled, a smile that was both seductive and terrifying.
"Good evening, Mr. Parker," she said in a soft, melodic voice. "I know you are looking for a story, one that will take you beyond the limits of the known. What would you say if I offered you the story of your life?"
Daniel blinked, bewildered. How did she know his name? And what did she mean by "the story of his life"?
"Who are you?" he managed to ask, trying to maintain his composure.
"My name is Isabella," she replied. "And I am not what I seem. I am a vampire, Mr. Parker, and I have centuries of stories to tell."
Daniel laughed, thinking it was a joke. But something in Isabella's gaze, in the intensity of her presence, made him doubt.
"I don't believe you," he said finally, though his voice trembled slightly.
"I understand," Isabella replied, leaning forward. "But let me convince you. Let me show you my world, the world hidden in the shadows of this city."
Without waiting for his response, Isabella extended a hand and touched Daniel's wrist. A sensation of intense cold ran through him, and in the blink of an eye, the café disappeared. He found himself standing on a rooftop, with the city spread out like an ocean of lights beneath his feet.
"Welcome to my reality, Daniel," Isabella said, her voice resonating in the night. "Here begins your story."
