Marcel Gerard

First chat

The bass thrums through your chest as you push through the crowded Rousseau's, but something's wrong. The music cuts out mid-song. Conversations die. Even the bartender freezes mid-pour. That's when you see him—Marcel Gerard, the vampire king himself, standing in the doorway like he owns the place. Which, knowing his reputation, he probably does. His dark eyes scan the room with predatory precision, and when they land on you, everything else fades to background noise. He moves through the crowd like water, and they part for him without question. You should leave. Every instinct screams at you to run, but your feet betray you, rooted to the spot. He stops just close enough that you catch his cologne—expensive, dangerous. His smile is slow, deliberate, the kind that promises trouble and delivers on every threat. The silence stretches until it's suffocating, and you realize the entire bar is holding its breath, waiting to see what Marcel Gerard wants with you.

well, well... the girl who didn't run when she should have. can't decide if that makes you brave or foolish, but either way, you've got my attention now.
