• ''Oh please..'' she murmured, her drinking teeth slowly coming out giving her that demon look, look that said you are doomed no matter what you do, her long alabaster fingers slowly almost gently wrapped themselves around the cross that person in front of her was holding. She could feel the coldness of gold on her skin, it caused some of her old memories to rise, but nothing special, it was just another cross, it meant nothing to her, she once was a Christian and believed in God, but now, now she was cursed by same force, just like the rest of her kind. Crosses meant nothing to her kind, they were nuisance, they caused slight prickling on her skin, but nothing more, places like this caused her memories to raise, but in years you were able to learn how to control that unpleasant feeling in the back of your head and not worry about fact that person in front of you was priest. Ok, let's continue with scenario, she thought while watching man in front of her, she didn't hate him, she despised him, Liana was more then aware of how much freedom she had in her time and how much people had more respect to her decision, but now it was different, man looked at her with some strange dignity, their looks saying that she was lower being. She was woman and that was sin.

    Lanai was shocked when this Dark Age started, the way church pushed people, the way it controlled them, it was definitely something she didn't like. Women around her were accused for being reason for mankind being as it was, inquisition was something that even she was scared from, they were disgusting, they actually tortured people, men or women, it didn't matter, and why? Because of grater truth, because those people turned their heads from church, because they didn't want to believe and Lanai could understand them, they had right to chose, but church didn't think that way. She remembered better then anyone how suddenly whole groups of women who were using herbs in order to make medicine disappeared into the great dungeons of Vatican under the word 'witch', any women showing more brain then simple waitress was accused to be linked with devil and those who didn't try to defend themselves found their death in fires, while the others…. Even Lanai had to be afraid of inquisition, she was from another time and getting used to be treated as lower being was hard, but it saved her more then once, but her true nature was the way for her to take revenge for what church was doing.

    Priest in front of her fell on his knees and started his prayer and Lanai felt rage building in the beats, she was hungry, but still she waited, her real victory wasn't in killing this man right away, it wasn't in torturing him slowly just like he did the same to some vampires inquisition caught accidentally and women who were innocent, no it was in breaking his spirit. It was in breaking him in whole, whole his belief, his strong faith that god exist and that somewhere the doors of Heaven were expecting him, open for man who walked the path of God for so long. After all only thing that was keeping him from running away was his blind belief in this church, in this religion, in whole that system that was killing so many innocents under the name of the God. Lanai came on her knees, priests weren't allowed to have women which was stupid, but for Lanai it was perfect, her open dress, her looks, and her way of moving her body so suddenly became seductive. Her hand caught his chin and moved priest who was stunned toward her lips, she wanted for his eyes too watch her lips as she slowly destroyed him, for him to feel her look from above, her look on such stupid and weak creature.

    '' Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord:
    in His commandments he shall take great delight.

    Mighty on earth shall be his seed:
    the generation of the righteous shall be blessed.

    Glory and wealth shall be in his house:
    and his righteousness endureth for ever and ever.

    He is risen in darkness, a light to the upright:
    He is merciful, and compassionate, and just.

    Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth;
    he shall order his words with judgment:
    and he shall never give way.

    The righteous man shall be in eternal remembrance:
    he shall not fear an evil report.

    His heawrt is ready to hope in the Lord:
    his heart is strengthened:
    he shall not yield till he despise his enemies.

    He hath distributed and given to the poor;
    his righteousness remaineth for ever:
    his power shall be exalted in glory.

    The sinner shall see it, and be enraged;
    he shall gnash his teeth and pine away:
    the desire of sinners shall perish.

    He that feareth the Lord,
    in His commandments shall have great delight.

    Blessed be the Name of the Lord.

    Amen,'' her last words echoes through empty church so lightly, they cut through silence like sharp knife, killing the holiness of the place with every words she said, destroying it with such delicate touch and precision. Priest just looked at her, he almost stopped breathing, Lanai knew what was now happening, his mind couldn't just like that accept something like this, after all vampires were creatures cursed by the God himself, they weren't supposed to be believers, but ones that only strong faith could destroy. She watched that small man being crushed by the truth and enjoyed in his fall, he was utterly shaken, and everything about him was now so much weaker, so much more afraid of the end which was coming faster and faster by every passing moment.

    ''I will drink your blood tonight, but I won't kill you. In three days I will come back and drink your blood again. And I will come on every third day to feed on you for the rest of your life. You will help me survive and commit sin every time we meet,'' it seemed that with every word she said man became more and more destroyed, he was slowly becoming a shell, body without mind, easy to control. ''What are you going to do? Are you going to kill yourself?''


    ''God forbids suicides…'' he said in whisper.

    ''As well as killing,'' continued Lanai, now this was only fun for her, she didn't care about other vampires very much or about humans, they were only food after all, but she was enjoying in destroying this ''God's'' man, for after she drank some of his blood she could care less about what was going to happen. Off course it was much more interesting for Vatican to be shaken by priest killing himself, then for her to have regular food; it could become slightly boring after a while. ''You have blood on your hands, one more sin won't make a difference, the hell is waiting for you one way or the other.'' Ten minutes later Lanai left the priest naked right in front of the altar, under the crucifixion that was normal thing in every church, especially in Vatican. If nothing he just found out from what he has been restraining himself for all these years. Fool, was only thought in Lanai's mind as she walked the streets of Holly city, her fingers cleaning her lips.

    In the morning same priest was found on the street – dead.
