Love at First Bite
A Paranormal Romance
Chapter 1: The Mysterious Diner
It was just another late shift at Maggie’s Diner when Lena Walker first saw him.
The stranger sat in the corner booth, stirring his coffee without drinking it.
Tall. Pale. Dark eyes that never blinked.
He had been coming in every night for a week.
Always alone.
Always watching her.
And tonight—
He finally spoke.
Chapter 2: The Stranger Who Knew Her Name
“You’re different, Lena.”
His voice was smooth, deep—almost hypnotic.
She froze. “How do you know my name?”
A ghost of a smile crossed his lips.
“I know a lot of things.”
Something inside her shivered.
Who was he?
And why did she feel like she had met him before?
Chapter 3: Secrets in the Moonlight
After closing, Lena stepped outside—only to find the stranger waiting.
“Don’t be afraid,” he murmured.
She should have been afraid.
But she wasn’t.
Because when he stepped into the moonlight—
His eyes glowed silver.
And his canines?
Sharp as daggers.
Lena’s breath caught. “You’re not human, are you?”
He shook his head.
“No. And neither are you.”
Chapter 4: The Truth in Her Blood
Lena’s world flipped.
The stranger—Elias—told her the truth.
She was half-vampire.
Her mother had hidden the truth from her, kept her safe from their kind.
But now—
The secret was out.
And others were coming for her.
“You have a choice, Lena,” Elias whispered. “Run, or stay and fight.”
She clenched her fists.
She had never been the type to run.
Chapter 5: A Bite That Changed Everything
The hunters came at dawn.
Elias fought beside her, fierce, deadly, beautiful.
But there were too many.
Lena was bleeding. Weak. Dying.
Elias caught her in his arms.
“There’s only one way to save you,” he said, his voice ragged.
Lena looked into his silver eyes.
And whispered—
“Do it.”
His teeth sank into her throat—
And the world went black.
Epilogue: A Love That Lasts Forever
When Lena woke, she felt different.
Stronger. Faster. Alive in a way she never had been.
Elias knelt beside her.
“You’re one of us now,” he murmured. “And I’m never letting you go.”
She touched his face, smiling.
“Good. Because I’m not going anywhere.”
Because love—
Real love—
Lasts longer than a lifetime.
