“You bought a house,” Anita pointed out, her eyes still watching the road ahead of them, turning her gaze towards the fast moving trees in her passenger window as the street lights grew farther between. “You have a club… I’m just wondering if you’re planning on staying here and why.” She wanted to trust him, at least someone did, some child’s thoughts rummaging around in her locked up head needing someone to trust, wanting someone to be… stable. The issue was that he was a vampire, but then again, it wasn’t as if she had seen much sun.
Anita shook her head to clear those wandering thoughts. Mistaking kindness again wouldn’t be the best thing to do. She bit her lip again, licking the copper wetness off of them as much as she could, soothing the wound with her soft musings. “You don’t have to answer that.”
She took a deep breath and felt his cold presence, could almost taste it in the air as it was less, calm. Anita looked at him again and tensed, wondering if he had felt or saw something that she didn’t, but he was still and quiet. Almost the same quiet of the grave, which in most cases, made sense. However, Axel was rarely like that, as if she knew him- at least whenever she was with him he wasn’t. Except when he hadn’t eaten. “Are you hungry?”
He wanted to answer her questions, he wanted to act normal but right now the monster that he kept hidden deep down inside him wanted him to just let lose and drink her blood till she was an empty husk on seat next to him. He opened his mouth and shook his head.
Axel pulled off onto the side of the road and quickly undid his belt and almost leaped out of the car, he need to be away from the blood in the car. He couldnt hurt her, he didnt want to hurt her. But deep down inside of him he did. “Stay in the car.” He hissed as he sat down on the damp grass and put his head in his hands.
He had been able to keep control all these years, making sure he wasnt around freshly spilt blood often or at all. He leaned back and looked up at the sky as he ran his hands over his pants.
Axel stayed out of the car for a few minutes before getting up and walking back tot he car, sitting back into the driver seat and buckling his belt back up. “Sorry….and no im not hungry.”
