-Mild bad language at the end of the chapter-

Erin's POV:

The unknown vampire quickly dodged my attack much to my relief and my beast's surprise. I used their moment of hesitation to regain control. My vampire and wolf relent but I feel them near the surface.

Waiting.

I turn my head at the sound of the unknown vampire clapping. He stops when he sees he has my full attention.

"Well done. You're new to this right? Yeah I could tell. You practically scream newbie. And what's with your eyes? They're funky looking. I thought you were going to kill me there, but I had it under control. I was hoping I wouldn't have to seriously harm you. I'm Anthony, by the way."

"Do you ever shut up?" My vamp gains control enough to speak her mind. I would have said it in a nicer way but she's not wrong. This guy never stops talking.

*'And he's still going'

I tune back in to hear this Anthony person rambling.

"-kind of creepy, not going to lie. I wouldn't do that to you. I don't lie, especially to friends."

Rolling my eyes, I begin to walk away before one of my beasts accidentally snaps his neck. I could feel the amusement from my beasts.

"Hey! Hey! Wait up!"

Anthony catches up and begins to fire questions.

"Who are you? You know my name, but I don't know yours. Will I guess? I'm not good at this game but I will give it a try. Samantha? Emma? Katie? Rose?"

* "We could be here for awhile. Goddess, why is he so annoying?" I couldn't help but agree with my vampire. This boy was starting to get on my nerves.

"ERIN!" Anthony jumps back at my outburst. I compose myself again before repeating more calmly.

"My name is Erin."

Anthony's face lights up. "Nice to meet you Erin." I force myself not to smile in return and instead give a simple nod. Turning my back to him, I begin my journey through the woods, almost sighing in relief when I don't hear him follow.

"Where are you going?"

I clutch my chest in fright as the strange vampire appears walking beside me. I stop and cross my arms angrily. He continues on, animatedly talking with his hands. He turns and frowns when he notices I'm not walking with him. He opens his mouth.

"No! Stop. I don't know you. You don't know me. Now stop following me. Okay? Good. Goodbye. See you never."

I start walking away from him again hoping he wouldn't follow. Luck wasn't on my side.

"I do know you."

My body stills. I slowly turn around to gaze at the stranger.

"What?" I could feel my beasts surfacing but I tried to keep them at bay.

"Your name is Erin. See? We are not strangers." He seems really proud of himself, plastering a huge grin on his face.

False alarm. He's just an idiot.

"Alright then. I've had my fair share of lunatics today so it's time for me to go."

When I walk away this time, he doesn't follow.

Just kidding. He follows me and continues to follow me six hours later.

"So then-"

I feel as if a force slams into my body as my vampire, who has listened to the boys ramblings and was now seriously fed up, took full control. She grabs his shoulders and slams him against a nearby tree. Our chest was rising slowly as we took deep breaths to calm down. Anthony looked a little scared, pleasing my beasts immensely.
