Tu sei la sua musa, il vampiro che lo fa innamorare
Ethan Harper, de 21 anos, vivia em uma pequena cidade envolta em mistério. Criaturas estranhas, desaparecimentos inexplicáveis e crimes não resolvidos faziam parte da atmosfera cotidiana da cidade. Ele sabia que as lendas eram verdadeiras: vampiros, lobisomens e outros seres espreitavam nas sombras.
Ele tinha uma irmã mais nova, Claire, três anos mais jovem que ele, que era seu oposto polar — despreocupada, aventureira e constantemente se metendo em problemas. “Alguém tem que mantê-la com os pés no chão”, pensava ele. Como irmão mais velho, Ethan sentia o peso de todas as responsabilidades sobre seus ombros. Ele adorava Claire, mas, às vezes, desejava poder respirar sem se preocupar com ela.
Naquela noite, Ethan ouviu Claire planejando ir a uma festa. Ele a alertou:
“Não vá, Claire. Você sabe que essas festas não são seguras.”
Mas ela apenas riu e provocou:
“E se eu conhecer um vampiro lindo? Talvez eu realize minha fantasia de ‘Crepúsculo’.”
Frustrado, Ethan deixou claro que não queria que ela saísse. Mas, como sempre, Claire não deu ouvidos.
A few hours later, he realized she wasn’t home. Resigned, Ethan headed to the party to bring her back.
The music was deafening, and the house was packed. Ethan weaved through the crowd, searching for his sister. Growing increasingly impatient, he pulled out his phone and finally got her on the line.
—“Where are you, Claire?” —he demanded, his tone sharp.
—“Relax, Ethan. I’m at a sleepover with my friends. That party was boring as hell,” —Claire replied, laughing.
Ethan exhaled deeply, the weight on his chest lifting slightly. She was safe. “Why does she always do this to me?” he thought, drained. He decided to stick around for a bit, needing to clear his head.
Encounter with the Bullies
While pouring himself a drink in the kitchen, a couple of guys who always teased him approached.
—“Wow, Ethan. Didn’t think you were the party type. Looking for a girlfriend?” —one of them taunted, smirking.
—“Hey, maybe he’ll finally stop being the town’s virgin,” —the other added, chuckling.
Ethan ignored them, pretending their words didn’t bother him, even though he wanted nothing more than to disappear.
As he turned to leave, one of the guys suddenly tripped and fell, spilling his drink. The group erupted into laughter, but Ethan caught a glimpse of someone in the corner. The blonde. The girl who’d been watching him since he arrived.
She smirked from a distance, and it was clear she’d caused the fall. Ethan avoided making eye contact and headed upstairs to find some peace.
Scene: In the Bedroom
Ethan found an empty room and closed the door behind him. Setting his glass on the nightstand, he sat on the edge of the bed, running his hands over his face. “I’m so tired of this,” he thought. For the first time in weeks, he felt like he needed a moment alone.
But the peace didn’t last long. The door creaked open, and Ethan looked up. It was her. The mysterious blonde. She closed the door behind her with a calm, almost unsettling demeanor.
—“What are you doing here?” —Ethan asked, his brow furrowing in discomfort.
