Hello! So this is my new story, I hope you like it! Important: I may not be able to update a lot as I recently started school and it's one of the most important years! D: I will try my best to update as much as possible :)

Claire's P.O.V -

My eyes slowly opened, adjusting to the dim light of a bulb hanging from the ceiling. I blinked to clear my vision and slowly, glanced around the small, empty room. Paint peeled from the walls, the wooden floorboards were rotted and there was a single window, wooden planks nailed to it. Dust particles floated in the air.

There was a sudden rattling of chains and I gazed down at my wrists, which were bounded. I moved again, pulling my body off the cold, damp floor and propped myself against the wall. The door in the corner of the room slowly opened, the hinges squeaking, to reveal the vampires holding me hostage. My heart hammered inside my chest, the sound pounding in my eardrums. Francois stepped forward, leaving Ysandre in the doorway and the floorboards creaked and groaned. A bead of sweat slowly trickled down my face.

Francois smiled, his fangs gleaming under the light and a red tint appeared in his eyes. He knelt on the floor beside me and slowly, stroked my cheek. I flinched from his touch, squirming away from his hands. Suddenly, Francois slapped my face, snapping it to the side from the force. A burning, tingling sensation began and tears welled in my eyes. There was laughter from the door.

"Francois, I thought we would have more fun than simply slapping the girl...", Ysandre spoke slowly, stepping inside the room.

"Oh, we will", He replied.

Fear bubbled inside of me and tears slid down my cheeks. Ysandre reached towards my face with her hand and dragged a perfectly manicured fingernail across my cheek, slicing the skin. I whimpered, turned my head away and bit down on my tongue, preventing the screams and cries from escaping as Ysandre continued slashing my face.

"Her blood...it smells delicious, don't you agree, Ysandre?", Francois chuckled.

He wiped his finger across a cut on my face, a drop of blood now placed on it and licked it off. My stomach twisted in disgust. Ysandre grabbed a fistful of my hair and yanked my head to the side, exposing my neck. A gasp left my lips as I stared at the two seemingly hungry vampires standing in front of me, while blood dripped down my face. Francois lunged and sank his fangs into my neck. I screamed, an ear-piercing, blood curdling scream. After a moment, my body became weak and through my blurring vision, I watched as Ysandre pulled Francois away from me.

"You fool, control yourself! We've barely started with her and you almost kill her!", She growled.

Ysandre dropped the fabric of his t-shirt and exited the room, high heels clicking loudly. Francois licked the remains of my blood from his lips and slowly turned, floorboards creaking as he left the room. My eyes drifted closed and I slipped into unconsciousness.

Yay, so that's the first chapter. I hope you liked it and if you did, review please! - Amy :P
