The next day, as we were walking to their hideout, Marcus asked me if I was okay. I looked at him and then Derek, feeling a mix of confusion and suspicion. "You would have just allowed him to kill me," I said, "Why take my side and tell him you trust me? What if I betray you and kill all your clans? After all, I killed Damien." I asked again. “Do they already know my plans or they are just stupid monsters with a conscience?" I asked myself giving them a weird stare.

"You killed him to gain Gerald's trust," Derek said matter-of-factly.

"What if I did it to gain his trust and use him to do what I want?" I asked, trying to keep up the façade of being on their side while keeping my true motives hidden.

Marcus looked at me with a hint of doubt in his eyes. "We understand the risks, but we also believe in giving people a chance to prove themselves," he said, his voice firm.

    As the night went on, she tossed and turned in bed, unable to shake off the events of the day. She kept replaying the scene in her mind, the moment when Derek had pushed Keith away from her.

I asked, narrowing my eyes at them.Marcus let out a heavy sigh. "Whatever you're thinking, don't do it. It's dangerous," he warned, his expression serious.I rolled my eyes, feeling frustration building up inside me. "What are you talking about? And what's so dangerous?" I demanded, crossing my arms over my chest."We know you're planning to join the Order of the Phoenix, but it's risky. You might lose your life," Marcus said, his voice tinged with concern.I let out an exasperated sigh. "What do you care? You guys are spying on me," I accused, feeling a twinge of betrayal.Derek, who was sitting on the hood of my car, playing with a ball, spoke up. "We care because we're connected to you. We can feel when you're in danger and we can't rest until we know you're safe," he explained, his tone gentle."And you expect me to believe that

    As I stepped out of the cab and made my way towards the entrance of my apartment building, I noticed a familiar figure standing outside. It was Keith, the same man who had attacked me before I went on my mission to hunt the rogue vampires.My first instinct was to turn around and run in the opposite direction, but Keith called out to me. "Wait, please," he said, his voice trembling slightly.I hesitated for a moment before approaching him, keeping a safe distance. "What do you want, Keith?" I asked, trying to sound as composed as possible."I wanted to apologize for what I did to you," he said, his eyes downcast. "I know I was wrong, and I'm sorry. I shouldn't have attacked you like that."I was taken aback by his sudden apology, but at the same time, I felt a sense of relief.
