•Chapter 33•
*One Week Later*
I was handed the small clear container once again and the cup of water. I took the pill today, and I have been since I promised Nathan. The voices began to fade when Nathan returned. After a few hours, they were gone.
"So, I was talking to Bethany earlier today and she had said that she got ahold of your parents. They said that, sometimes the vampire can get too attached to the mortal, or victim as they call it. The vampire then enters the mortals thoughts. They hear voices, think that they see the vampire when, nowhere in sight." Nathan explained.
"That's what's happening to me." I whispered.
"So, you're not crazy. Please, just let me take you back home. Do you think that will help?" He grabbed my hand.
I nodded my head, trying to believe that it would. I didn't want to leave though. I didn't want to be caught by him again. He was my nightmare that I couldn't shake. The nightmare always seemed to come back, even though I loved the thrill, I couldn't stand it being there.
He smiled. "I'll go and fill out the papers." He shot up from his seat, walking quickly to the front desk.
I sat there in silence, flipping the pocket knife in my hands. The voices began to come back, coming in as echoes. I closed my eyes, resting my head upon the back of the wall.
"Devin? It's time to leave." Katherine's voice filled my ears, overpowering the whispers.
"Right. Sorry." I got up from the table, hiding the pocket knife in the sleeve of the sweater I was given after a few hours in the gaming room.
She handed me my clothes when I first arrived. "You can leave in the clothes that your in, just return the shoes." I slipped off the shoes, putting on my own. I handed Katherine the slippers before walking out into the world again with Nathan.

I was greeted by my parents, Bethany and Jesy when we entered the apartment.
"Sarah!" My mom shrieked. "Please don't do that to us again." She pulled me into a hug.
I began to break into cries. "I'm so sorry..." I mumbled.
