Daciana: Hunting
It was the lioness in the long grass watching gazelles grazing. The patience of knowing when to strike and when to back down. Slow movements, her body at one with the space surrounding her.

Daciana: A Living Horror Movie
The taste and sight of blood had repulsed Luliana her entire life. Daciana never felt that way. She loved horror movies, hiding under the covers, turning out the lights, and waiting for gore.
