《First Love》Chapter 3

“Do you see Kotaro yet?” Asked Alan as we stood back to back searching the crowds.
“Not yet. I can barely see anyone in this sea of people.”
“That’s a bit ironic isn’t it?”
“I suppose it is.”
“I think I see him.”
“Where?” I asked looking over his shoulder. “I don’t see him.”
“By the vending machine. To the left of the restrooms.” Alan pointed out.
It took me a moment, but I finally saw Kotaro holding the sign reading Dyson Electric. Suitcases in hand, we assimilated into the columns of busy bodies until emerging on the other side before Kotaro.
“Welcome to Sapporo Mr. Dyson. I hope the flight was well for you and your companion.” Kotaro spoke with a broken accent before bowing.
Alan reciprocated the bow before stating “The flight was well my friend, but please allow me to introduce you to my companion James.”
Kotaro bowed to me and I quickly bowed back unsure of how far I should bend. After he led us outside and flagged a cab. The three of us crammed into the back seats and Kotaro told the driver our destination. With Kotaro and Alan talking in Japanese, most likely about the company, I found myself looking out the window at the city around me. Seeing the lights of the city from above hardly compared to being in their glow at the beginnings of night. Yet even with the moon above the city seemed as alive as day. People filled the sidewalks and cars plowed the streets. Coming to a red at an intersection I found my eyes upon a woman in front of a bakery.
Her hair was shortly cut and painted in the blackest hue. Her skin showed youth and beauty through its radiant texture of pale snow that brought with it a sense of nostalgia. This nostalgia ignored my flesh and bone piercing straight through my heart. Only when she turned towards me and I saw her deep blue eyes did I know why I felt this longing. I wanted to get out of the car, to hold her, and talk to her one more time, but the cab drove on. She faded into the night as I watched through the back window. Turning towards the front my vision throbbed with the rapid beat of my heart. It was for the best I wanted to say, but my heart held my throat.

The Monster Inside: The First Vampire
Despite appearances, there was once a time where monsters did not exist. Where peace and prosperity reigned over all life. But those sinful and demonic forces that had hidden themselves in the shadows just couldn't help themselves could they? They wanted a piece of that prosperity too. They wanted to taint it, corrupt it, revel in its dark side.This is the story of a boy who was tainted. Of a boy who unintentionally bore a seed of sin and who in his naivety let it out. This is the story of how that boy was shamed and disgraced. Of how he was outcast for simply being. This is the story of how that boy learned to embrace the darkness that made him different. A darkness that would later make him known as the Lord of Night. Note to Reader: I understand this book is not for everyone, if there is a writer that can write to please everyone, I have never heard of them. The MC can be frustrating in his decisions as he learns to grow and accept what and who he is. I believe this reality is unavoidable. That being said, if you feel the need to give a review, please do so, just know that I will report you if all that review seems to do is blab toxic language and insult my literary choices without giving constructive advice or alternatives. That's not just a me policy, that's a policy of this website. I'm not writing this note because I'm a writer who does not acknowledge that there are faults in my work. I know there are. That's what happens when it hasn't been professionally edited by someone other than the author. I'm saying this because I'm sick of reading 1 star or 0.5 star rated reviews that seem to do nothing but hate on the book because they don't like the story. No comments on grammar, ways to improve or suggestions for better story arcs. Just plain hate. It's not on, and I frankly shouldn't have to write this note, but needed to get it off my chest. In saying all that, thank you to those who do leave reviews that don't fall into the above category. Your appreciation of my work, or alternatively, your willingness to give advice for improvement, is appreciated.
