Vampiro emocional: the bite you can't see
Red in the background, red on the neck. On the cover, a guy with his eyes closed and his head tilted while another, behind him, sinks his teeth in just below the jaw. A drop of blood runs down towards his chest, where he has a winged heart tattooed. The scene is sensual and unsettling at once, which is exactly what the title calls for.
An emotional vampire (that's the title) is the person who feeds on your energy: your attention, your time, your drive. They don't really bite you, of course, but you come out of every encounter with less strength than before. It's quite witty that the cover takes it literally and dresses it up as erotic horror cinema, because that's often how it feels: you like it until you realise they're draining you dry.
Dedicate it to whoever sucked the joy out of you. Or listen to it yourself, so you recognise the bite next time.
