Some things that once made sense to Arabella didn't make sense anymore. Not after she left the cafeteria. Her mind was muddled with confusion and questions. It seemed as if some parts of her memory had been deleted or changed. She felt uneasy at the thought. It wasn't simply possible. Not unless she was becoming insane.

Eira felt her palms growing cold and numb with sweat and inside her ribcage, her heart beat frantically. She wet her lips, regarding the girl in front of her with a sympathetic gaze before she said firmly, "Dana, there's something you need to know."Dana raised her red-rimmed eyes to look at her and sniffed. "What?" She asked, wiping her cheeks but the tears had already dried up.

The sun had long set by the time Eira was done with her explanation. The duo decided to move to somewhere else and ended up outside the Shack. Eira bought food and they sat in the car, eating and sharing bits and pieces of information. There was cheers and gasps from Bella but for most part of it, she listened silently to Eira. Her lips trembled on hearing of Uncle John's death and the vampire Rafael's attack. But she had a hard time believing real life vampires didn't sparkle under the sun. "Why do you mean they don't sparkle? What happens to them then?" Bella asked, her eyes filled with uneasiness. Eira stated the answer, much to her surprise, "They get barbecued," She laughed, a whole hearted one. It felt good to be finally real with her sister. The family she had chosen for herself. There were no more lies, nothing to hide. The strange feeling of fear tried to surface but she pushed it down for time being and continued on a serious note, "Real vampires burn under the sun and turn

After The Night Epilogue
[JOSH]Even ten days after the massacre at the Black Hall, not a single soul involved that day could stop thinking about how all of it could've been prevented if only a few trustful, true words had been exchanged. The effect was seen on each one. Many lost their lives and many others people who they cared about. The signs of recovery however were blooming all around. People were forgiven for their bad deeds out of the kindness of the hearts of those who had been at the suffering end. Surprising to Josh, Eira had been strangely calm about having Raven in the mansion. The latter refused to return to the Black Hall and although she denied it, the warlock knew, deep inside she was mourning for Alexander. Nate—another surprise to him—had been chosen to represent the vampires in the supernatural coucil. The bloodsuckers had been oddly agreeable and united about peace—again another surprise for the warlock."Are you giving up already?" Josh asked when he saw Eira lazily throw the herbs in

[RAVEN]"We need to leave today, Alex. Have you packed yet? Or you need any help?" She said swaying her arms around, pretending to ignore the lines on his forehead."How dare you?" Alexander barked at her before she could draw in a single breath.Raven stared into his eyes, her brows raised in confusion. "Is everything okay?"His jaws clenched together tighthly, making her frown. What had made him this angry in the morning?"How dare you betray me?" He shouted at her with a voice that made her flinch. "I raised you like my own daughter, took you in when the people who you shared blood with cursed and kicked you out and this is how you repay me?""I don't know what you mean?" She raised her head but even she could not miss the uncertainty in her own voice."Claudia, Nigel, Ben, Will. Is that enough or do I need to elaborate?" The vein of his temple seemed ready to burst any second. But all she really cared about at that moment was how
