When Aila got to work she promptly sat down at her desk and began filing and answering the phone. Sometimes she really hated being a secretary but it paid. The morning started busy but then slowed, she reclined in her office chair and enjoyed the calm. And then Kurtis Humbert came into the room; He was a rather plump man with a red face that never seemed to go away, Kurtis was constantly out of breath. Which couldn't have annoyed Aila more. He was Aila's employer's worst client. He was picky about the stupid things that didn't even matter. "Is Simone in?" He asked rudely as he paraded passed the doors to Simone's office. Aila picked up her hand to protest, "Wait..." She sighed and went back to her work shaking her head. About an hour passed before the pompous man returned. He walked, without stopping, to the elevator. Aila smelled the sweat on the round human as he raced past. She liked it. Aila bit down hard on a pencil until the elevator doors closed together, she chomped on the wood of the writing tool and had to restrain herself from running after the easy prey. Kurtis however didn't notice her strange behavior, he was complaining loudly to himself about the poor condition of the up to check elevator. Aila bit down once more on the pencil and broke it. She was spitting splinters in the trash when Simone told her to break for lunch. Aila grabbed her black leather purse and took the stairs; not even wanting to think about the elevator. She stopped by Starbucks and bought a rich flavored coffee and a an incredibly sweet slice of cake. Aila counted on the fact that when she calmed her human cravings her animals one's normally did too. She left the building after eating and went to an ally; where, next to the dumpsters, she closed her eyes and forced herself to savor the remaining flavors of chocolate and coffee. It didn't satisfy. She head a loud sound, like metal hitting metal. Aila opened her eyes to see a man, about 3 years older than her, taking some trash out. He looked to Aila and came up to her with a grin. "Hello miss." He said cheekily. "Hello." Aila copied. The smell of him was intoxicating, he had been working hard and around meat. Course he had, the ally was next to a butchery. Aila took deep inhales when he came nearer. She was careful though to be quiet and not scare him off. He put his hand on her shoulder. She was starting to get annoyed with him. "Are you lost?" He repeated. Aila hadn't heard him the first time. "Um...Yes am actually..." she lied. "Oh well here let me help you." He said walking her in a direction the was not toward the road or more people. Her heart started to beat faster he was taking her behind the dumpsters. "Where are we going?" Aila asked worriedly. "Oh no where..." The man said with a sinister grin. Aila struggled but he wouldn't let her loose. As he held her arms tight she smiled. The man was mildly confused but then pushed her up against the wall and covered her mouth. Aila bit his hand and he yelped and jumped back. She had drawn blood and licked her lips free of the red liquid. Aila came closer to him out of confusion and fear that she was coming toward him when his normal prey never did, he backed away. She pushed him to the wall and covered his own mouth. "Scream for me." She said hatefully and relished in his whimpers. Aila couldn't help it, her arms and legs buckled. Her bones crackled and twisted, her new muscles bubble under her skin. The man watched dazed and could not move from his spot. Now a large black dog with thick fur stood before him. It had saliva dropping from it's mouth. Aila growled low in her throat and she watched the man man shake in fear. Fear had a sweet smell to it, hinting as to what is to come. Aila circled him until he stumbled and fell. "What the hell are you?!" He yelled as she sank her teeth deep into his neck. Blood overflowed and filled her mouth it was sweet and warm but the drowning scream of her victim was like pure sugar.
She returned to work with 5 minuets to spare. She fixed her disheveled hair in the bathroom and went back to her desk. She was so full. "Good lunch?" Simone asked. Aila nodded smiling. It was odd last time she made herself sick several times but now she was full and with no regret. He planned to hurt her, so she didn't care if he died. After 5 hours passed she had finished digesting and was done with her work. Aila headed home, feeling slightly hungry again.... |
