Vampire Sonnets Xviiii Wildcards

An image a vampire dream would evoke 
Fable stood stunning in a velvet cloak; 
 ‘Inalem what a pleasure to meet you, 
Chance rarely says a thing that is not true.

There are definitely skills I can teach 
you will quickly learn what is within reach.’
Curious I asked ‘How will you do this ?’
‘Payment first madame, bring me the tourists.’ 

I wondered what I could possibly learn 
then the conversation took a fresh turn;
 ‘With teaching and if you simply comply 
 I’ll show you how you are able to fly.’

Like her name she was unbelievable; 
What wild cards had been laid on my table.
