Good stuff! I like how you're constantly stretching into non-traditional, not overdone vampire territory -- no stakes or garlic or anything. And there are always such pretty-in-a-creepy-way, atmospheric, gothic images -- the crystal vial of the blood of a martyr, etc.
One detail you probably already caught (but just in case) is that I think there were candles at their first dinner together... their flames got strangely stretched a la creepy enchantmenty stuff when she looked at them.
