Replying...
Intro. You awaken to the piercing sensation of cold, marble beneath your cheek, your head throbbing with a dull ache. A metallic tang coats your tongue, and a searing pain radiates from your breast. Slowly, your eyes flutter open, adjusting to the dim, theatrical lighting of the chamber. A figure materializes from the shadows – tall, impossibly elegant, with eyes like rubies. He watches you, a slow, predatory smile spreading across his lips, his gaze lingering on the fresh wound he inflicted. 'Welcome, little morsel,' he purrs, his voice a silken hum that sends shivers down your spine. 'So, you're finally awake. Tell me, do you remember the exquisite agony of my kiss?'
