Chapter 4...interesting....

We sit in the back of a fancy car as a driver drives us to the motel so I can get my things and talk to Eve.

"Welco-me..." the guy says shocked that Alexander Knight is with me

"Kitty?" I hear Eve ask confused

"Eve" I rush to her and hug her happy to see she's still alive.

"Oh my gosh I was so worried, you vanished in that VIP thing then Leon just up and left with some girl without anything and never returned" she says

"What?" I ask because Alexander said he'd left as in still alive left "Leon hasn't even gotten his ring?"

"Nope it's why I was worried but since you've turned up alive he'll turn up probably" she says

"Could you excuse me for just one moment" I say and turn and walk to Alexander pissed

"Tell me the truth about Leon" I say

"He's left" he states

"I'm not stupid, he hasn't left one of your things killed him" I accuse him

"He's left is all I said I never said if he's left town or life" he says and god this guy can really get on my nerves "he was asking too many questions so Ivory took care of him and had we turned him he'd have died a much more painful death since he was too weak"

I take a deep breath angry and sad "you cannot just Kill off anyone that's asking around, or something like that"

"I know, I turn or have someone turn them if they're strong enough and your friend wasn't anywhere close to strong enough" he says as if it's the most normal thing in the world

"I'm telling Eve" I say but he takes my wrist his eyes going dark

"You're not telling her anything" he says but he doesn't scare me...okay he kinda scares me but he doesn't have to know that

"She deserves to know about Leon and tell your little minion to bring him so we can bury him" I say "or else I'm reporting him as a missing person"

"He's already been buried, we're not savages" he says a bit more relaxed "and it'd be better if she'd be told he left with Ivory"

"He wouldn't leave without his ring" I state

"Don't worry about that just tell her you saw him leave with Ivory to spare her the pain of losing a friend" he says

"What about my pain? He was my-it's complicated but we were close" I say but I don't feel too sad just like I just lost a slightly sentimental object

"You're feelings are dampened towards humans and other beings because you're other senses are heightened, you don't feel sad" he states

"It's no surprise that you don't have feelings but just because you don't doesn't mean everyone else can't have them" I say as he lets go of my wrist noting the weary glances were getting

"It's common knowledge among us, we feel nothing for people that aren't like us it's not possible, it's the reason you don't feel bad and why you don't miss anyone you know, you just feel relieved to see a familiar face" he explains to me how I feel like he knows it better than I do and it has to be a world record on how annoyed and angry he's making me every single time he opens his cured mouth.

"You're wrong, I miss my best friend and I'm more than positive that he was more human than anyone I know" I say

"People that have passed already don't count" he says "it's the strongest feelings that leave a mark and marks like that don't fade even with Immortality"

"You do know how completely arrogant and like a complete ass you sound like, right?" I ask frustrated and pissed off

"Your frustration is understandable" he states as a waiter brings him coffee

"It's on the house" the waiter says and the arrogant ass looks at uninterested in but takes a sip politely

"Frustration?" I ask

"Who puts cinnamon, mint and 4 cubes of sugar in coffee?" He asks himself

"You're unbelievable" I sigh because he's topped every arrogant asshole I've ever known

"Look your main frustration and anger comes from lack of education-" he starts

"If you're trying to say that I'm dumb you're worse than I thought" I say crossing my arms

"Lack of education on your new self and your conscious mind catching up to what's been happening to you the past 2 months" he says again telling me how I feel and why I feel like I feel but he's obviously too self centered to know that it's his fault I'm angry and frustrated

"Ummm, hi" Eve says and I change my mood after giving him a one last angry look "I was just wondering if you're coming back or?"

"Yea" I say with a small smile "I'm coming back like back back"

"No you're not" Alexander says casually

"Why not?" Eve asks

"Because of things you don't understand" he says

"Is he holding you against your will?" Eve asks me quietly

"You'll kill her" Alexander says quietly before I can answer

"No, it's just very complicated and I barely understand" I lie but my stomach turns at the lie

"What could be so complicated?" She asks

"Partner" Alexander says telling me what to say

"It's like 5 times me and Leon but like I'm just confused, then I'm apparently confusing and it's a big mess, you know?" I ask and again I feel my stomach turn and I feel nauseous now

"Not really, no" she says

"But I'm actually here to get my things and obviously catch up with you" I say and the nausea fades a bit "so what's been going on?"

"I passed my exam" she shrugs as we walk towards he room "nothing much though what about you?"

"Oh I've been sleeping like a lot" I don't get nauseous but the nausea doesn't fade

"No really what's going on with all this rich life look you have?" She asks and one of Alexander's security joins us "and the security?"

"Well complimentary of Alexander Knight" I shrug "but I'm not really sure I can live in that place I mean it's practically a castle it's so big" Eve chuckles a bit "the house, god does everything about you have to be dirty?"

"But come on, is it though?" She asks

"I-I don't know, we haven't gotten physical" I say and she stares at me

"Then how the hell is it like you and Leon because you two were like at it every chance you got when you were together" she says and I roll my eyes

"Fine it has the complexity of my and Leon's relationship not the actual sexual relationship" I say and my nausea grows a bit "but I don't know if he's waiting till marriage or what but it is nice sorta" I'm gonna throw up.

"Hey you okay?" She asks me but I feel dizzy and nauseous

"I think I'm gonna throw up" I mutter and she hurries to open the door and when she does I rush into the bathroom and actually throw up blood.

"Oh my gosh" she says shocked

"It's...red cool-aid" I say and a few moments later Alexander walks in

"No what are you doing" Eve asks being pulled away from the bathroom before Alexander closes and locks the door

"You poisoned me?" I ask feeling weak and tired

"We poison ourselves when we lie" he hands me a bag of blood and it's still warm so he knew this was going to happen

"You still poisoned me by telling me to lie" I say but I have no appetite

"We feel obligated to speak honestly no matter what, and if you're grandmother does not show up in 3 days I will teach you how to avoid this situation but until then drink" he says

"I'm not hungry" I say my eyelids heavy and I just want to sleep

He crouches down in front of me and takes my face gently in his hand "drink or you'll die" he holds the straw thingy up to my lips and I take a small sip as I start to lose feeling in my limbs and no matter how I try I can't swallow the blood and he sighs. "I apologize in advance but this is going to feel strange, uncomfortable and may hurt a bit" he attaches something to the straw tube thing on the bag before he opens my mouth knowing I can't open it. He puts the tube straw thing down my throat and it hurts but I'm too tired to move or make any sound as he slowly and carefully squeezes blood down the tube and down my throat where it travels to my stomach but all I see are gray eyes looking from me to the bag to his watch and I realize that he's done this before.

I slowly start to get feeling back in my fingertips and toes before it starts spreading and he carefully removes the tube "no matter what do not say anything else" I nod "the vibration of speaking might trigger another episode of poison the brain mistaking the truth as a lie" I nod again but I get my phone and write

*but where does the poison come from?* I show him

"It's the Immortal venom" he says "we produce it like we produce sweat but usually it escapes through our teeth but if we lie the venom pouch next to the stomach that formed while transforming rips a bit with every lie and usually heals with every truth but a big enough lie or constant lying will cause the venom to start leaking burning a hole in the stomach and poisoning us"

*but if we bite someone don't we poison the blood?* I type and show him

"No, the venom is like thin honey and doesn't mix with blood so every single drop of blood we take is replaced with venom which is why we can drain a person of every single drop of blood every 3 months as the pouch fills up and if it's full we have to feed or else it'll burst and kill us except with an eternity spell, the eternity spell is usually followed by a handful of other spells that make releasing venom as easy as simply putting a bit of pressure on the teeth"

*so we don't have to kill?* I type quickly with hope and show him

"After the three months we start to dry up as some vitamins and nutrients we can't get from anything but blood and you'll experience immense amount of pain as you'll become less and less human until you're worse than vampires" he says killing my hope immediately "we need to get you back to the house to fix this properly" he offers his hand to help me stand up but I stubbornly try to get up on my own "you're not strong enough to stand up or walk on your own" I frustrated slap my hand in his and he helps me up

He places his arm around me and his hand on my waist to keep me upright but I don't like being this helpless so I'm pissed...but he did save my life-No, he's the reason I need his help in the first place, I would've been out of here long ago had he not been such an asshole and turned me into this thing. Okay I'm pissed again.

"Kitty are you okay?" Eve asks worried and I smile and move my hand in a 'meh' kind of rocking movement "are you sure?" I nod

"We should be going" Alexander says

"No you're not taking her anywhere" Eve says so I take out my phone and type

*its fine I'll just call you later* I have Siri read it out loud

"Why aren't you talking?" She asks and I'm not sure if it stiff effects me if I type a lie

*I can't* I type and it is true I can't or I'll throw up again

"Why not?" She asks

"She doesn't want to throw up again" Alexander answers and I point at him so she knows he's correct

"You promise you'll call me as soon as you can talk?" She asks taking my hands worried but I look at Alexander to answer because she's trapped my hands

"She'll try" he replies and I smile looking at her but she looks at him suspiciously

She lets us go after she hugs me but whispers in my ear to tell her if he hurts me before she let me go and I just nodded even though I'm pretty sure he heard it as if she said it normally to us both.

When we get back to the castle mansion building he calls a house the bugles greeter guy stands with a glass of water, a cup of tea and some herbs in a small clear bowl but I just look at Alexander confused and obviously still pissed.

"You drink the tea first as it'll relax you, then you put a bit of the leaves under you tongue and take a sip of water without swallowing it so after a minute to 3 you'll pass out and it'll reset your brains dishonesty part that will trigger your internal healing and when you wake up you should feel okay if not you did something wrong" he says and I sigh before I do as told and he walks me to a couch.

I just so manage to type sweet and point at the door before I pass out.
