Demi Reed is a werewolf and now he knows I'm a vampire. Shit.

Elijah's Pov
I have not really left my apartment that much other than to go to work. I was really trying to be discreet. I haven't fed in days. I could start to feel the withdrawals. My teeth were hurting. I would have dizzy spells. Plus, working in a library with humans constantly walking in and out all day did not help. I was currently sitting in the cafe, my grip so tight around a cup my knuckles were turning whiter than they already were. I run a shaky hand through my hair, rethinking over the past week and a half. I have not spoken to Demi since that night. I did not want to. He was a werewolf for crying out loud.
I groan, my head falling down to the table. I know that caused me to draw attention to myself, but at the moment, I did not care. "You alright there, Elijah?" I look up to see one of the co-workers from the library over here. "Y..yeah.. just not feeling well." She rubs the back of her neck, "I could have some words with the manager to see if I could cover the rest of your shift. Would that be okay?" My eyes widen in surprise by her suggestion. "I don't want it to be a burden though."
"No. It's fine. You don't look so well anyways." I smile brightly, standing up and pulling her into a hug. "Thank you!" She chuckles, patting my back. "No problem. Get better soon." I nod, going to grab my jacket and walk out the door. I put my sunglasses on as I walk out into the sun. I wince at the sudden brightness, my eyes slowly getting use to the sun. I make my way home, deciding that I would pay a visit to the vampire nest tonight.

I was putting on a beanie when a knock on my door caught my attention. I heads towards the door, hoping that it was not a human because i would probably kill them on the spot with my thirst. I open the door. Never mind. I think I would rather it be a human. Because I was standing face to face with Demi Reed. A werewolf. A vampire's enemy. But for some reason, I still felt attracted to him. I groan, looking at the beautiful boy in front of me.
"Hey.." he greets shyly, looking down at the ground. "Demi.. why are you here? You know I'm a vampire and you are a werewolf. Our kinds do not get alone." He sighs, rubbing the back of his neck and looking up at me. "I thought we were becoming good friends. I didn't want to ruin our friendship... plus you are kind of irresistible. Especially with that outfit you wearing now." If I actually had blood running through my veins right now, I would have blushed at that comment. "Also, regardless of what we are, I still want to be your friend."
I think for a moment, looking down at the ground. "Okay. I agree, but I think it would be best that you do not tell anyone that I can walk in the sunlight." He nods, understanding but then asks, "What makes you able to do that?" I shrug, still having no clue what gave me that ability. "Ah. Well. I guess I will see you later." He goes to leave but I grab his wrist and hand him my phone. "I figure we could switch numbers." Demi grins, handing me his phone. I put my number in, listing my contact as "Eli" and hand his phone back to him. "Until then." I nod, waving him off. I stick my phone into my back pocket and check the time on my watch. I should wait until the sun is further down before going to the nest. Don't want them to be suspicious.

I head out the door around ten o'clock, barely able to stand from the hunger. Dammit. I barely make it through the door of the hotel. If it was not for Olivia and Jackson, I would be on the floor right now. I nearly collapsed as I walked in the door. "Elijah? Hey, are you okay?" I look up at who I am guessing is Olivia. She looks blurry right now. "N..no..," I state, having trouble keeping my eyes open. She heads for the bar while Jackson tries to keep me awake. Few minutes later, I smell the wonderful scent of blood underneath my nose. I take the glass from Olivia after thanking her and down the whole thing. Every last drop.
I feel way better than I did this morning. The blood running through my body, I felt like I could seriously run for ages. I sigh in delight. "You haven't fed. When was the last time you fed?" I count back in my head, remembering the last time I actually did feed. "Four weeks?" I don't think I have ever seen someone's eyes go that wide. "Four weeks?!" I chuckle nervously, "Yeah. I can go long times without feeding. Don't ask me how." The rest of the night went by smoothly until I was pulled back to Nicolas's "office".
He was sitting down at the round table, leaning on top of it with his arms crossed. "So, Elijah, when were you going to tell me that you were a day lighter?" He sits back in his seat, looking at me with an intense glare. I gulp, looking at the doorway which had a man that was twice my size in front of it. "Don't try to escape. That will only make matters worse." I struggle to come up with an answer. What was I suppose to tell him? That I had no idea how I became this way? I fiddle with the end of my shirt, not knowing what to do. I could make up a lie. No. That would not work. Shit. I was in some deep shit.
What was I going to tell a head vampire who could kill me with no trouble? I internally groan. "So, are you going to speak or are you just going to stand there?" I sigh, looking at him. "I would have told you, but I have no idea how I am able to myself." I told the truth. Where would this ended up taking me? He blinks twice, acting as if he was surprised. I did tell him last time that I do not have any memory of anything. Did he already forget that? "Are you certain you do not remember?" I rack my brain for anything. "Yes." He sighs, nodding his head at the vampire that stood at the door. Next thing I know, I am being grabbed by the vampire. "Guess we will have to try other methods." My eyes widen and I try to escape the vampire's hold.
This night turned out to be lovely.
