Introduction
If everyone knew, would I be accepted?
Probably not. Humans never have been very open minded. I would know, I’ve lived with them for more than a century now. I was raised in secrecy, being taught that I would be shunned or killed if anyone knew. Vampires, blood drinking creatures. A myth, or at least that’s what people think.
I’ve been one for 548 years. We don’t sparkle in the sunlight(I have no idea where that idea came from), but we don’t die either. We simply become weakened. Blood no longer flows through our veins, making our bodies cold.
Drinking blood is what I hate most about being a vampire, having to kill so I don’t starve. Drinking the blood of animals is similar but doesn’t fulfill the hunger. It keeps a vampire satiated for about 3 weeks.
Now that we’ve done “Vampire 101” I can introduce myself. My name is Amabel Yohe, I am approximately 548 years old. I was turned into a vampire when I was 31 years old by a man who failed to drain me of all the blood in my body.
I have straight black hair that falls just below my shoulders. My eyes are a deep shade of red that often gets mistaken as brown. My skin is a pale white colour due to me being a vampire.
I work as the owner of a high end chain of restaurants all across America and New England that has recently become a billion dollar franchise. I own the restaurants from the shadows, making sure no one knows who the owner is and what she looks like.
