A void emptied of life.
I lift my hands, and just before he presses his dick against my entrance, I wrap my hands around his neck, and my body does something only one kind of creature can do, a kind I never believed was real.
I drain all his life energy.
It happens almost in a split second in a single powerful flash of dark purple energy.
Oswald’s body convulses and arches, even in the dim light I can see his eyes fade from red to gray, suddenly empty, his skin also turns gray as if the life is evaporating from it, his whole body cools rapidly, his entire life force floods into mine…
It feels like an unbelievable, ecstatic wave of energy, like a thousand strange orgasms at once, like a surge of vitality that could last me for decades… but I let it flow through, dissolve, and fade.
Oswald goes still, and his body collapses onto me.
Limp.
Dead.
Only when deep silence fills the room does something begin to reach me, as if I’m waking up from a strange trance.
There is another heartbeat in the room.
Someone is standing in the doorway.
A cry of panic escapes me, and I squirm out from under Oswald’s stiff corpse.
The room is dim, but I recognize him anyway.
My stalker.
He came, but too late, I already took a life…
Why didn’t he appear earlier? Or maybe he did? Maybe he saw I handled it…
Making wheezing sounds, I sob because all the emotions and nerves avalanche through my system.
I slide off the bed and crash onto the floor, panting desperately.
Why! Why the fuck didn’t he show up five seconds earlier?! I need to say this!
"Five seconds earlier and I wouldn’t have killed him!" I shout.
The masked man tilts his head in a strange way, almost as if wanting to say: "Are you fucking kidding me?"
Then he steps half a pace to the side, turns slightly, and almost theatrically points behind him.
I lean to look there.
He’s pointing at the door.
Oh, fuck. Wow.
There’s a piece of metal and some fallen plaster on the floor.
Did he break the door down? Right. That could have taken thisextra five secondsI needed…
I guess my urge to be super secure backfired, it slowed my rescuer down.
At the same time, I realize that it was a security door, anti-burglar! Damn… and he still managed to break it down?
