She had been watching him as he wandered through her forest, her blood red eyes watching for just the right moment.<br/><br/>Vanessa had spent months watching the people go in and out of her forest. She tried her best to remain unseen, protecting them from the vicious animals that moved about. But today?  Today was different. Today, The One, had entered her realm.<br/><br/>Moments later her chance came as a panther prepared to pounce on the handsome young man. With fangs extended, the red head dropped from the tree, landing on the panther. They wrestled a moment before she finally sank her fangs into its throat and began to suck the blood from its body.<br/><br/>After the big cat had been subdued and emptied of its blood, the young vampiress looked up, her fangs retracting into her mouth, blood dripping down her chin. "Are you ok young man?" She asked him, her blood red eyes turning a golden color as she wiped the blood from her chin. She knelt beside the dog he had and smiled as he came to her willingly. Her hand rested gently on its head as her eyes moved back to the young man.
