Alexandria's pov
Jesse stepped forward again glaring at Freya, who now stood fully behind me gripping my arm tightly. "You don't come home all night after specifically telling me that's were you where going. Me and Dante spend hours searching for you. Worried that you encountered another one of us. And we find you here, with a human?! A human you were about to kiss no less! We swore to each other we would treat them as nothing more then food." he fumed taking another step towards us. I could feel my cheeks warming as they turned bright red. I couldn't deny it. When she started to lean in I wanted nothing more then to close the distance. Which alone freaked me out. How much I wanted it was foreign to me. Especially from a human I barely know. I glanced behind me to see Freya's frightened face. She still clung to me. If I had thought she was afraid of me, it was nothing compared to the fear rolling off her at the sight of my brothers anger. "Lexa!" Jesse screamed when I didn't respond. I met his gaze again, unsure of how to respond. This was all to new for me. "Jesse please just go, I will talk to you both about this when I get home." I say slowly unable to find an answer for him at the moment. The rage that flashed across his face even terrified me a little. His eyes flashed back to Freya, "No we wont. There wont be anything to talk about." he said as his eyes started to glow slightly. I new what was coming before he had a chance to move. My brother was physically stronger then me and I new in his current state if I didn't get Freya out of here he would most likely kill her. I grabbed Freya and ran out her back door, sadly I didn't get far. Jesse was in front of me in an instant looking livid. At this point his eyes were pure red. I was scared, but I new I would die before letting him hurt her. That thought scared me even more but for a completely different reason. My emotions had been switched off for so long I forgot what it was to care, let alone care enough to die for a person. I new my brother wouldn't intentionally end me, but his anger would send him into a blind rage sometimes. I took a defensive stance with Freya behind me preparing myself for his attack. A snarl ripped out of his throat before he lunged at her full force, nothing but hatred in his eyes. I braced myself for his impact, for the first time in my life truly scared of my own brother.

I couldn't believe my eyes when she used her speed the first time. She was standing in front of me and my hand was on my mouth. She wasn't lying or trying to trick me. She really was a vampire! At that thought I felt myself grow fearful. It must have translated to my face because she immediately looked crushed. "Freya's I told you I'm not going to hurt you. I swear to it, I wouldn't have saved you if I wanted anything bad to happen to you." she whispered sadly while looking down. I watched as her eyes started to tear and something in me broke at the sight. All of a sudden I wasn't afraid even in the slightest anymore. I can't explain why but I just new she was telling the truth. I also new that it broke my heart to see her crying, especially over me. My feet started me towards her quickly and I reached up to wipe the tears off of her face. She looked up shocked, maybe at the fact of me touching her or because she was crying in the first place. I wasn't really sure which. All I new standing this close to her holding her tear stained face, she was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. I pulled her into me hugging her, "please don't cry. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you." I whispered into her ear while rubbing her back softly. I pulled away while still holding her hands, smiling. Like I said, I couldn't tell you why I new. But I just new she was telling the truth. I new she wouldn't hurt me. I new whatever pull I felt towards her, she felt too. I glanced down at her lips and all of a sudden I wanted nothing more then to know what they felt like against my own. I stepped into her, never taking my eyes off of her lips. But before I ever got a chance to taste them, my front door burst open scaring both of us. There in my door way stood to boys I had never seen before. But one of them looked severely angry. I felt Alexandria pull my arm a little telling me to step behind her. I didn't argue or ask questions, I just did what she indicated. "Lexa what the fuck do you think you are doing?" he asked infuriated. He took a step towards us, ""You don't come home all night after specifically telling me that's were you where going. Me and Dante spend hours searching for you. Worried that you encountered another one of us. And we find you here, with a human?! A human you were about to kiss no less! We swore to each other we would treat them as nothing more then food." he screamed at her. Treat us as nothing more then food? Why had they agreed to that? This guy looked at me with hatred and I didn't understand it. The other boy just looked confused and a little afraid. He was glancing back and forth between them obviously unsure of what to do. She glanced back at me and I could see the redness in her cheeks. She met my eyes for a moment before Jesse yelled her name again. "Jesse please just go, I will talk to you both about this when I get home." she pleaded with him. It apparently was the wrong answer. His eyes started to glow and he looked angrier then ever. ""No we wont. There wont be anything to talk about." he said before his eyes focused on me. The grip I had an Alexandria's arm tightened in response. The anger rolling off him was truly the scariest thing I've ever experienced. Before he took another step though She turned around while grabbing me and tried to make a run for it. Moving at such a high speed was very disorienting but it didn't last long. Whoever this was, he was faster then her. His eyes where out right red now and still trying to focus on me as Alexandria pulled me behind her again. She was trying her hardest to protect me. He let out a growl before charging at us. Alexandria pushed me back before using her speed to try and trip him up. It didn't work very well at all. He got his hands on her and tossed her into the tree that was in my backyard breaking it in half. He picked up a rather large splintered off piece of wood before turning back to face me. In a flash he was standing directly in front of me ready to plunge the sharp end into me. I closed my eyes and waited for the pain, but it never came. Instead I heard the boy, I think his name was Dante, scream no as warm fluid splashed all over me. I looked up and Alexandria was above me impaled through the stomach and bleeding everywhere. All of a sudden the fear I felt sky rocketed but for a completely different reason. She fell backwards and I reached up to catch her. "No no no." I kept repeating over and over again. I didn't know what to do, tears were pouring out of my eyes. "What did you do?!" I screamed at the boy standing above us. He didn't answer, he just stood there with a shocked expression. The red had completely left his eyes and he began to shake his head before running off and leaving me there holding Alexandria's bleeding form. I was startled when the other boy was suddenly in front of me. He looked between me and her before speaking. "Don't worry its not a mortal wound. We just need to remove the branch and find someone for her to feed on so she can heal." he spoke calmly. When he said that something in me grew... Jealous? At the thought of her drinking from someone else. That freaked me out a bit but so was everything over the last twenty four hours. "We need to hurry though, she's already lost to much blood to stay conscious. We need to find someone she can feed from now." he spoke again. "She can feed from me." I spoke without hesitation this time. I don't know why I feel so attached to someone I just met her but I felt like I needed her to breathe now. I wanted to know her more then I've wanted anything in my life.

"She can feed from me."the girl stated while looking down at Lexa. Who was this girl? I had never seen Lexa and Jesse fight like that. I hated it, i'm over four hundred years younger then them though and no match for either one. So there was nothing I could do about it and it broke my heart. Jesse and Alexandria found me seventy four years ago, I had only been a vampire for ten years. I never new who turned me, they never taught me anything. I'm convinced that if not for Lexa and Jesse I would probably be dead by now. They where my best friends, my family. "You can't." I said lowly. The look she gave me at my words nearly burned my skin off. "Look I don't mean anything by it. Its just that right now she is injured to the point she might lose control when drinking from you. And she obviously can't have anything happen to you. I mean she just fought her older brother for you. Something tells me if I let you do this despite knowing the risk and she does lose control she'll not only destroy me. But it will destroy her." I said to her quietly. She gasped a little while pulling Lexa closure to her, "That was her older brother?" the girl exclaimed. She started to stroke Alexandria's face contemplating for a moment. "Why did they swear to each other that they would only treat us like food?" she asked voice full of curiosity. I sighed slowly, it want my place to answer that question. I grimaced up at her before shaking my head. "I'm sorry, only Alexandria can answer that question for you." I spoke while looking down at Lexa. At this point all the color was drained from her face. "Look I'm going to do this whether you help me or not. There's no time to find someone else. And even though I just met her, I feel like a part of me will die if I lose her. So please just help me?" she all but begged while holding Lexa as close as possible. I sighed while running my fingers through my hair roughly. I didn't really have much of a choice here. "Alright I will help you." I breathed out. "By the way, my name is Dante. Who are you?". She glanced up at me with a relieved look on her face before responding, "My name is Freya.".

After Dante pulled the splintered piece of wood out of her stomach I held her close to me again. Afraid of how cold she had become. "What do I do now?" I asked softly. This was all new to me, and I was shocked the idea didn't terrify me. I just new I needed the chance to get to know everything about this girl. So it was more then worth it to me. "A small cut should suffice in her current state, the cent of blood will instinctually make her start to drink." he answered softly while watching us. I picked up a jagged looking rock that sat next to me on the ground before roughly dragging it across the skin on my neck. I felt warm fluid as it began to roll down to my chest. I lifted her up then, bringing her face to my neck and just as he said within a matter of seconds I felt her fangs sink into me. It hadn't hurt like I expected it too. In fact it was probably the most exhilarating thing I had ever felt in my life. I had to stop a moan from bubbling up out of my throat at the sensation. In stark contrast a loud moan ripped through Alex's throat as her arms enveloped me. I held her as tightly as I could experiences more pleasure from the experience then derived any where else. I felt myself growing dizzy and could here Date's voice in the background urging her to stop, but nothing else seemed to matter at the moment. My grip on Alex started to loosen as blackness started to envelope my world. The last thing I remember before completely loosing consciousness was Alex's voice calling my name frantically, and then nothing.
