”Betty?” he smiled softly. ”What happened? One second you were with me in the car, the next you were gone. I almost thought I imagined you.” he asked, still a little weak from the leftover nightshade and not having fed properly in a while.
"something happened ly anf I think it would be best if I went away" she said
”Don’t.” he begged, clasping her hand in his. ”I just got you back after being kept away for a month. Please stay.”
" I killed her I killed her then ripped her body to shreds like an animal, " she said turning on the light so he could properly see her face.
Lysander struggled a little before managing to prop himself up and held her. ”I understand.” he said gently. ”Was that your first kill?”
She wiggled out of his embrace " I don't kill but the rage inside of.me.was unbelievable I don't want anyone to see me.like that" she said
”Hey, hey. I understand.” he comforted. ”Trust me. I know. I’m not proud of this nor am I trying to brag but I've killed in anger before too.”
" i have to go find Alec he he drank from me" she said
He grimaced at the mention of the other vampire. ”Why do you have to go because of that?”
" because we need to talk and I'm a hybrid" she said
”A hybrid?” he blinked stunned. ”How?”
"i don't know that's why I jumped out I understand if you don't want to be with me anymore" she said tears rolling down her cheek
He gently cupped her beautiful face. ”I don’t want anyone but you. I don't care what surprises you have. I’ll always love you.” he swore before kissing her and wiping her tears away with his thumbs.
" I'm a monster I'm not this brave beautiful girl anymore Ly I'm scared" she said
”It’s alright to be scared. Being scared doesn't make you any less brave.” he said gently. ”This hasn't changed you to me. You are still the most beautiful woman I have ever known.”
" your just saying that because your my boyfriend" she said
Lysander gave a small smile. ”That doesn't make it any less true.”
She groaned laying back but immediately yelped in pain
”What’s wrong?” he asked worried.
"Marie knocked me up pretty good " there are alot of bruises " she said
Lysander sighed. ”If I could move, I’d help you. At least the nightshade kept me from a rampage.” he groaned laying next to her.
" maybe I should go join the army or something so I don't feel like a waste of space " Betty said
”I was in the Army. It’s a little overrated.” he admitted. ”Been ”Killed” and ”Missing in Action” a dozen times. The Navy was a little fun. Didn't mind the Marines either.” he told her. ”But you're not a waste of space.”
" i sure feel like it I couldn't even save you" she said
”Are you kidding me?” he asked sitting up a little and turning to look at her. ”If it weren't for you I’d still be chained with that poison on me until I went completely crazy and forced to marry Marie.” he shuddered at the thought.
