I want to keep you alive, but there are forces that might say otherwise and I'd have to kill you if they forced my hand."
     
                  “Now you’re going to kill me, too? Well, that’s the first thing you have said that makes sense; I see why we are on a dark beach alone.” My mind was racing, he loved me... I didn’t act as if I had paid attention to what he had said.
     
                  “No, that’s not what I meant; that came out wrong. Ugh, I didn’t want this to happen,” he said, again more to himself than me.
     
                  “Well now that we have established you’re a vampire that wants to kill me, what else?”
     
                  “Okay, look. The girl with the curls, that was Alisa." His tone was the same, but the way he phrased that was strange. "She has been responsible for the whole Nightcap/Night Children thing in New York. I guess you can say I am a little responsible by recreating Masteria and giving her the stage to play her little game. She was creating new vampire who fed outside Masteria in other clubs in the open. Some kids saw, thought it would be cool, and mimicked it. Things spread fast and so you have the rise of the Night Children. Alisa spread the 'Night Children' name to the media as she created thirty-three new vampire in total. Most people no one would miss and some rich spoiled brats who liked to spend daddy’s money at night who are now on missing people’s list. Those two we killed tonight were the last of them. The nine deaths recently around the club scene were done by a few who couldn’t help themselves on their first feed and killed the human.”
     
                  “You missed one, I believe you let Alisa go.”
     
                  “Alisa is an ancient, over five thousand years old; this is her idea of a game. The Elders didn’t deem her a risk; she was only the creator. Young vampire rebel against their creators all the time like this; however even if Alisa didn’t try to stop them, it’s the same as a troublesome teen stealing cars. As vampire, we are potentially immortal and jail, which is just loss of some of your life, isn’t punishment. Destruction is how we solve these matters. It was up to me to kill her or not and she has never been a threat to anyone.”
     
                  “She seemed plenty dangerous to me,” I mumbled to myself.
     
                  “I should have said never been a threat to another vampire. We are all threats to humans.”
     
                  “Was that clarification supposed to make me feel better?”
     
                  “It was, but I guess that wasn’t the most tactful response, sorry. Although it serves its purpose in showing you that there is a difference between human and vampire, vampire are highly matriarchal and Alisa being an ancient as well made it so that I couldn't bring myself to kill her.”
     
                  “So you don't hit girls?"
     
                  "I would have killed Jessica myself for hurting you if I did not have your injuries to tend to," he nearly growled, and it shocked me to hear that sound come from him. “Ugh, are you going to keep stopping me?” I heard the first hint of annoyance in his voice.
     
                  “Go on.”
     
                  “The highest law within our society is to never lift the veil. That is to say no human may know about us, unless they are changed or chained to us."
     
                  "Chained?"
     
                  "Our blood... has several properties that are beneficial to human life, one being its healing abilities. However, all it takes is a drop to leave you addicted."
     
                  "I’m a junkie now, too? This gets better and better," I laughed harshly.
     
                  "I will ignore that comment," he mumbled. "The
