The races of witches and vampires have been at war with each other since the discovery that vampires could not only gain sustenance from drinking the blood of a witch but absorb their powers for a short time. It has been foretold that a young woman would one day arrive, half vampire and half witch. Possessing unimaginable power, she would finally bring an end to the war.
A few moments of people giving me dirty looks and purposefully bumping into me though drew his attention to me. With those magical eyes directly on me, however, I could not have moved even if I wanted. He looked at me; he looked through me. It was the oddest sensation I had ever felt. Then, he was gone. I was pushed out of my reverie with a hard shove by a small, burly businessman. Once my gaze returned to the place where the young man had been standing, nothing hinted that he had even existed. The space was now occupied by a small family inspecting their plane tickets.
Everyone kept buzzing by as if one of the most extraordinary men in the world hadn’t been standing there just a moment before. I quickly turned my head in every direction, searching. I just had to get a look at his eyes one more time. Yet, he was nowhere to be found. I looked for any remnant of him in the surrounding crowd, but no one was close to his height or had hair as dark as his was. A disappointed frown formed on my lips, and I couldn’t resist a soft sigh as I gathered myself and continued on my long walk to my next plane. While I had been slightly out of it when I entered the airport, I was anything but that now. This mysterious guy with his bewitching eyes had thrown me off-balance. However, I couldn’t bring myself to complain about the interesting tilt he unknowingly added to my world.
