This is Kyuuketsuki Hime Miyu: literally translated as "Bloodsucking Demon Princess Beautiful Evening". Born in post-war Japan, she lived a relatively normal life until the age of thirteen, where she encountered a demon, Larva, sent from across the ocean to kill her. At this time, however, Miyu discovered she had the thirst of a vampire - and took Larva's blood. Larva's face and voice were sealed away as punishment, and became Miyu's servant. Miyu soon discovered why Larva sought to kill her - her family was part of a clan of Shinma (gods and demons), who were left on Earth to secure the sleep of those who slept below. During the transition of roles from her mother to her, many Shinma escape from the Darkness, which Miyu must now capture and return to their slumber. To accomplish this task, Miyu's aging was halted... and so she exists today, ageless, amoral, hunting both Shinma and beautiful people to feed on.

"Vampire Princess Miyu" began as a Japanese manga; it was also translated into anime, and the manga is currently in a North American translated release by Dark Horse comics.
