I have been sitting at James’s side since they attached the metal arm. So far so good. Well he hasn’t woken up yet so we can’t be a 100% sure. I sat with my eyes closed listening to his heart beat. It is so calming.

A few hours later I got up and made my way to the room where they keep the failed experiments. I have been feeding on them for a while now. They do not have to be compelled and I started to feel bad for feeding on Peter.

I sit down next to the body and lift up his arm to my mouth. The blood tastes so good. It gave me a very exhilarating feeling. I felt like I could conquer the world.

After my dinner I went back to James. I was nearly there when I heard it. His heart, it is distressed.
I ran into the room to find the professor and two lab assistants around his bed. He was sitting up. It was a miracle.

He stared at his metal arm and then he grabbed one of the assistants around the throat. I stood there in frozen fear. The guards moved closer so they can strap him down again.

The professor injected him with a calming agent. I moved closer to his bed and placed my hand on his metal arm. “It’s okay. We fixed you.” I turned to the professor. “May I have a moment alone with him please? I would like to run a few tests on him.”

“By all means my dear. Please be careful.”

“Yes professor.”

I waited until they left. “James are you okay?”

“What happened?”

“We found you. You fell and your injuries were fatal. I am so sorry this happened to you.”

“Do they know that you know me?”

“No. They only think that I am very passionate about my work.”

“That’s good.” He grabbed my hand and crushed it.

“Woah we need to work on that killer grip.”

“I am so sorry. Are you okay?”

I pull on my fingers putting them back into place. The redness disappeared and I flex my hand. “I’m fine thanks.” I saw his eyes widened. “Perks of being a vampire.”

“Lucky you.”

“You must be starving. Shall I bring you something to eat?”

“Yes please.”

I made my way to the door when it suddenly swung open. “Where is he?”

“Good morning sir.” Johann?

The leader of Hydra. He was the one who wanted the super soldier in the first place.

“Remarkable isn’t he sir?”

“Absolutely professor. I think it is time to reprogram.”

“I will make the necessary arrangements.”
