I trust Reginald, for some reason. Maybe it’s the bond connecting us, or maybe it’s something else. But if he says I shouldn’t talk about this, I believe him.

I don’t really have anything else to say to her, but I feel like I should. She and I have never been close, but we’ve also never felt this distant before. And with each new day that Calla’s still gone, the wall between us grows thicker and thicker.

The bond tightens in my stomach, then Reginald turns into a flurry of movement. One moment, he’s standing beside me, the next, he’s beside Candace, his teeth tearing into her throat. Her blood splatters across the wall, then her body slumps to the ground between us.
mk
GOD DAMN, DID HE KILL HER??? GO REID!

“I’ll take care of it. They won’t be bothering him anymore.” I turn to look at him, but his face gives nothing away. When I still don’t move, his expression softens. “You have my word.”

What’s probably so unnerving about them is how they manage to look so human and yet not human at all. They’re somehow emaciated and gluttonous at the same time. They often appear skeletal, but no matter how much they consume, it never satisfies.

Reginald moves so fast my eyes can hardly detect it. His fangs tear through Derek’s throat, splattering his blood across the grass. I gasp and jump back a step as his limp body collapses into the bushes. When Reginald turns back around, his fangs are still extended, dripping with Derek’s blood, his eyes glowing in the moonlight.

Okay, but why? It doesn't make sense to *kill* the people that don't cooperate, even if it is law. Is it some sort of perverse power dynamic? To make sure the others obey? I don't understand it.

The law is the law. And if his sentence was an execution, then he must have had a lot more on his record, otherwise he would’ve been dragged to the closest blood farm.

Okay, I guess that answers the question, don't like it, but aight I guess. What about people with blood transmitted diseases, like wouldn't people try to purposefully try and get soemthing like that to stop them from donating? Or would it not matter?

My vision blurs rapidly, blotting out the face of the dark figure, and he releases his hold on my mouth as my body goes limp against the bed. One of them grabs my arms, and a second pair of hands grabs my legs.
