Malcolm woke up, he could feel sand beneath his fingers. He coughed, violently expelling water from his lungs.
He took a moment to catch his breath. The smell hit him like a train. Rotten fish mixed with the smell of human decay.
A claw reached down and lifted his head. Red eyes staring into his soul.
“You’ll do.”

Haha! Went back for a re-read, I think when I read it I saw the line:
“Your strong arms anchored around me and your lips nourishing my neck.”
Right there, vampire twist! 😛

Pretty cool. Thought it was a shipwreck scene until “the claw.”

Hmm, kinda is. The last story that featured Malcolm saw him trapped beneath the waves.
