Marinette opened her eyes slowly. With her head spinning. Looking around the dark room, she rubbed her head and frowned. How did she get here? She tried to remember what just happened...

She was going home, when three men cornered her... She hit her head against the wall and blacked out...
Then the images of red eyes and sharp teeth came to her. They said something about vampires! Could all of that be a dream? She signs. Getting out of bed, she reaches for the door handle, that's when it mysteriously opened by itself.

A man stood before her. Wearing only black. He looked familiar somehow. "Oh, you're awake." He said as he stared into her soul as if trying to scare her.

"Where am I?" Mari asked. "Who are you?"

A smirk came upon his lips as he replied. "You are in my house. You had a terrible turn of events last night, so I carried you here. And as for, who am I?" He paused and stepped closer to her. His features clearly showed. His green emerald eyes stared into hers like that night when he caught her from falling.

"My name is Adrien. You and I met at the club. We actually bumped into each other, so to say."

Mari gasps in embarrassment. "Oh! I'm so sorry." Mari covers her eyes worriedly and scared. Adrien smirked more as his eyes try to understand her. "I was in a rush... And such a clutz..." The scent of her blood made him lick his lips but only by a fraction as he stopped and bite his lip. "I should get going..." Mari said as she brushed past him. The scent of her hair, her skin and her blood lingers as he watched.

After Mari lefted, Adrien sat in silence, thinking about the girl that he saved. As Nino returned he stood by the doorway looking around. "So, has the girl lefted?" He asked. Adrien didn't reply. He only lifted his hand to take in her scent that lingered on his hands and clothes.

There's something different about that girl... Adrien thought to himself. She's... "Yeah. She just lefted..." Adrien replied as he stared at his fireplace. She's special that's for sure...
