Yace mi cuerpo acurrucado junto a mi esposa en nuestra cama, dormidos, disfrutando de su cálido abrazo. Entre sueños siento un susurro al oído, eres mío, mientras me acaricia el torso, con manos frías lentamente despertándome.
Me giro a besarla, cuando salto del susto contra el espejo astillándolo en mil pedazos. Se dilatan mis pupilas, se eriza mi piel, sudo frío al ver que no era mi esposa quien me abrasaba. Era una figura de ojos perdidos, sonrisa grande, con garras afiliadas y cuerpo pálido, reflejado en la luz de la luna de mi ventana.

Lies my body curled up next to my wife in our bed, asleep, enjoying her warm embrace. Between dreams I feel a whisper in my ear, you are mine, as she caresses my torso, cold hands slowly waking me up.
I turn to kiss her, when I jump in shock against the mirror splintering it into a thousand pieces. My pupils dilate, my skin bristles, I sweat coldly when I see that it wasn't my wife who was burning me. It was a figure with lost eyes, a big smile, with affiliated claws and a pale body, reflected in the moonlight of my window.
Sangraba mi espalda, sentía dolor, sentía mi corazón palpitar con fuerza. Se lanzó sobre mí, rechace su avance de una patada, intente pararme para correr, mientas ella yacía tirada. Mis piernas se sentían como si estuviese corriendo en el fondo del mar, las palabras no me salían, una lágrima corría por mi rostro.
Jadeando tomé un fragmento del espejo roto con mis manos desnudas, y empecé a caminar, de repente me golpean sin previo aviso, caigo en el suelo rodando por el pasillo. Empiezo a arrastrarme hacia la cocina, logro ponerme de pie. En un momento se esfuma el sonido, no veo nada, escuche un ruido perturbador de eco localización, mis sentidos estaban alertas, me temblaba el pulso. En mi mente pensaba:
¿Esto es real?

My back was bleeding, I felt pain, I felt my heart pounding. She lunged at me, I pushed back her advance with a kick, tried to stand up to run, while she lay sprawled. My legs felt as if I was running at the bottom of the sea, the words did not come out, a tear ran down my face.
Jadiando took a fragment of the broken mirror with my bare hands, and started to walk, suddenly I was hit without warning, I fell on the floor rolling down the hallway. I start crawling towards the kitchen, I manage to stand up. In a moment the sound fades, I see nothing, I hear a disturbing noise of echoing location, my senses were alert, my pulse was trembling. In my mind I thought:
Is this real?
Me cuestioné si iba a morir, pero no había tiempo de pensar.
De impacto me agarro por una pierna clavando sus filosas garras en mi muslo desde atrás, agonice del dolor, me arrastraba como presa hacia el cuarto, me lanzo sobre la cama de golpe, me mordió el hombro, sentí dolor frenético, reaccione apuñalándola con el cristal en mi mano ensangrentada, chillo y me agarro por el cuello.
Casi sin aliento, desangrándome, escuche una voz que me daba fuerza, no te rindas lucha, ante mí apareció la presencia del espíritu de mi abuelo, metiéndose en mi cuerpo, haciendo que resplandeciera, en mi mano, del cristal surgió una espada, con la cual decapite a esa presencia.
Desperté llorando de sobresalto mientras mi esposa asustada me abrazaba. Estaba vivo.

I wondered if I was going to die, but there was no time to think.
On impact she grabbed me by the leg, digging her sharp claws into my thigh from behind, I agonized from the pain, she dragged me like prey into the room, she threw me onto the bed with a thud, she bit my shoulder, I felt frantic pain, I reacted by stabbing her with the glass in my bloody hand, she screamed and grabbed me by the neck.
Almost breathless, bleeding, I heard a voice that gave me strength, do not give up fight, before me appeared the presence of the spirit of my grandfather, getting into my body, making it glow, in my hand, from the crystal emerged a sword, with which I decapitated that presence.
I woke up crying with a start while my frightened wife hugged me. I was alive.
