A new fanfiction from me brought to life by reading excessive amounts of Bizenghast and Anne Rice, listening to Within Temptation, and playing Shadow of Destiny more than I should. Anyway...
Title: Child of the Shadows
Genre: Fantasy/Horror
Rating: Pg-13
Summary: A young orphan girl is plucked from her aunt's care into a world she never dreamed existed, where vampires hold court in palatial mansions where the light of day never shines. Living in the lap of luxury under the protection of the eccentric and insane vampire Cain, she knows happiness beyond anything she's ever experienced in her lifetime. But when a tragedy strikes, she is forced to choose between the dreary mortal life where her only destiny is to grow old and die, or becoming Cain's fledgling, free to eternally wander the night and do as she pleases, at the price of her sanity, and maybe even her human soul...
DISCLAIMER: If you recognize the characters, chances are I don't own them.
