"Nobody but me, seemd to be able to see his wings..."

....the grandmother murmured as if she were talking to herself, while the fire crackled, casting dancing shadows on the walls.

"The night I met that mysterious vampire is etched in the forgotten chapters of my life. His wings, like pools of crimson velvet, bore secrets and desires centuries old. Those wings whispered tales of forbidden love and the anguish of immortality.

I was young, drawn to his irresistible charm and the concealed turmoil within those blood-red wings. He wove stories of past eras, kissed me under the moonlight, and took me soaring through the starlit sky.

But his world was one of endless thirst, and I was but a fragile human. Our love could never bridge the chasm between our souls, so he vanished, leaving me with the bittersweet memory of an endless life promised but never reached. He loved me too much to torture me with eternity."
