Dylan has completely changed. His demeanor, his body, his everything. I study him closely from my place on the ground. His skin is paler, but not in a "you really need sun because you look like a geek" way, a "I just want to touch you all day long" kinda way. It's almost too perfect to even look at. My eyes scan down. His muscles have seemed to elongate into those of a predator, making him look more powerful and animalistic.
As I look him over, his eyes never leave my face. That's another thing. His eyes. They're very unnerving. But no longer do they keep me captive. How is this even possible? Dylan was already half vampire. So now he's....even more than a regular vampire? I don't get it. What did David do to him? I stop scanning Dylan's body and look him in the eyes again. I search for the Dylan I used to know. Nope. Nothing. Any evidence of that mouth watering-ly handsome man that I cared about is gone. The Dylan now is just...perfect. Too perfect. I close my now damp eyes and lay back down. I try and think about Cai again as I drift off to sleep. I just want to leave this place.

"Will you shut up for a second Daniel? I'm trying to concentrate." I sigh in frustration and worry. Where is she?
"I can't believe this. Why the hell would David do this?" Daniel paces around the truck. "I trusted hi-."
My eyes snap open and I cut Daniel off by snapping his neck. That'll give me about fifteen minutes of peace and quiet. And it's not like he didn't deserve it. He did poison me. That was one of the most excruciating experiences of my entire life. And that's really saying something.That human's blood that they fed me had one of the worlds most debilitating drugs in it. Krokodil. The things humans do to themselves these days. I'll never understand it.
"Come on, love. Where are you?" Almost as if in answer, I hear my name whispered. I smile and close my eyes again. After a little searching, I find her mind, but her location is still hidden. That's odd. Luckily she's already sleeping. Since I'm in a hurry and I don't have time to create our own little place, I enter one of her dreams.
I open my eyes and find myself at an abandoned house. I smell blood in the air and enter the house in a matter of seconds.
"What the hell is this girl dreaming?" I've started walking down the stairs just when I feel the dream fluctuate. Someone is touching her while she's sleeping in the real world. I feel his presence but don't recognize who it is. This bothers me greatly, but I can't be distracted right now. I have to talk to her.
Calming her mind, I stabilize the dream again. I continue walking down the stairs and see the scene unfolding in front of me. Lilly is standing petrified as Dylan sits in a chair across the room with a sad smile on his face. I see a blade flash in the light and I rush to her and pull her into me, just as I hear it slice through his flesh. She gasps. This didn't actually happen did it? No. David wouldn't kill Dylan just yet. Hopefully. I was just going to join her in her dream, but it looks like this isn't going to work. I concentrate and build a simple one room dream. This'll have to do.
I pull her into me even tighter. She sighs contentedly and wraps her arms around me.
"Thank you." I feel her smile against my chest and then she pulls away.
"You don't know how happy I am to see you." Lilly beams up at me.
I feel heat pool in my stomach as I look at her, but I push it away for the time being. There'll be time for that later when I find her and bring her home. I refocus my thoughts on the matter at hand. Frowning, I cross my arms across my chest.
"Didn't I tell you to stay at the house?" She sucks in a breath and looks down at her hands guiltily. Biting her lip, she glances up at me and then looks back down.
