"We can take my car, I'm gonna guess you don't have a vehicle?" Ezra mentions. We are walking side by side in the parking car garage, Lilith is locking up her apartment. Our voice low as we speaks, I wasn't to keen on normal people being able to hear us.

"I ran here," I stated, "I wasn't sure if I would be bringing anyone back with me."

Ezra paused in front of a car covered in black car cover. He rest against the side crossing his arms. I follow his lead and stand only a few inches away from him as I look up to meet his gaze.

"If you don't mind me asking...what's it like being a vampire?" He grins as a dopy look falls on his face. I want to fucking scream, he so god damn beautiful. What did I do in my past life for god to bless me with eight beautiful mates? I used to think all this shit was just myths and foke lore, but to actually live through it...sometimes I feel like I am dreaming.

"Well I never really wanted to be a vampire," I confessed, "But it was one of those things where it would happen anyways. My mates were already vampires when I met them. Then I was told by the rulers of our world that I had to change. Now that I have changed, nothing really feels different from before. Other than the fact ya know, I don't sleep and eat bunnies to survive."

Ezra chuckles a little and his laugh is so beautiful that I could die happy right this moment.

"Do you feel like it was forced on you?" He asked stepping closer. Now we were standing toe to toe, us moving closer was unconscious behavior. I hadn't even noticed that I leaned in just the tiniest bit to focus fully on him.

I nod my head, "With the way I became a vampire, yes. But I would have chosen to change to stay with them...even if it took me a long time."

"I think that I would feel the same way if I was in your position. I'm happy that you have others with you so you're not alone," he spoke, "Being alone, and not having someone to be with you sucks ass. I hope this doesn't seem too soon, but I'm so happy that I met you. It's nice to know that I have a mate. It's been a long time that I've been here and I've always been by myself. Eventually you start to loose yourself."

My hand grabs onto his warmer one and I hold his hand close to my body. "You are no longer alone, you'll have me for as long as you want me. So...how long have you been here?" I asked remembering his past words. He acted completely normal like he's been on this earth for a short time. He blends in well, very well but with how slow his heartbeat is on a normal basis is all telling. He's not human.

"On earth? Or here in Louisiana?" He smirked.

"Both" I say meeting his eyes head on.

"I've been here for twenty three years, and I've been alive since the thirteenth century" he answers.

"Middle Ages!" I gasped, "Your old as fuck."

What's strange is he has a heartbeat. So he is clearly not a vampire. Yet he said earlier that he was able to track me. And to be alive longer than one hundred years if a human could live that long is wild. I wondered what he could be.

"I've got centuries and generations on you baby" he teased gripping onto my hand. I giggled and pulled away when I hear footsteps approaching.

"Ah, there the love birds are," Lilith grins coming into view, "I thought I lost y'all, are you ready to go?" She asked. The red headed woman had a large duffel bag slung over her shoulder and she had changed from her other clothes into a white shirt, white washed jeans, and a simple black jacket.

"Let's get this show on the road" Ezra said pulling the cover off the car.

I couldn't wait to see how this would all play out. People come and go, but the right ones will always stay. I had a feeling that these two would be along for the journey for a very long time.
