“Wait,” Anita sighed as she pulled on her coat and shoved her wallet in her back pocket, “Vampires can have ‘animals to call’? What is that, like a pet or something?”
Why was it that everyday she was learning something new about vampires and the supernatural and upon occasion wishing that she didn’t? The saying was definitely true, ignorance is bliss- but at a certain point all of these surprises were beginning to get less and less, well, surprising. “It starts now,” Anita rose her hand as they moved out into the cold autumn night, turning to lock up the building behind her so she wouldn’t forget and find herself in a shouting match with Bert about the whole thing. “No more.”
Anita couldn’t help but feel a little odd that he had opened the door for her. She knew that it was another one of his kind traits and maybe an old habit that never died, but chivalry always sort of… irked her. Nevertheless, Anita smiled gently at him and entered his car smoothly, thankful for the ample foot room as she was what one could call, fun-sized.
“If only coffee was a food… Well, is it bad to say that I’m craving pizza?”
“Mhmm.” He said as she asked about the animals, he would wait till they were in the car before he would explain more. He laughed and nodded as she said that the no talking about JC started now.
“If coffee was food that’s all you would eat.” He joked as he started the car and drove away from her office. “I can make pizza for you, I learnt how to make pizza from scratch when I lived in Italy.” Axel told her as he looked over at her. “I should have enough food to make pizza at home.”
“Oh so yes we can call animals, but only master vampires can do it. Some call cats, wolves, birds, anything really they can call it.” Axel explained as they drove out of the city.
