❝Well, that's one hell of a twist.❞
♠
PARIS WIDENS HER eyes as soon as those words left Lucien's mouth. Out of all the things he could think of, he thought of that.
"You mean the serum that would require for me to die and be a vampire?" Paris said with sarcasm.
"Not just any vampire. An upgraded vampire. A vampire far more powerful than an original!" Lucien stated.
However, as much as that amazes Lucien, Paris feels the exact opposite.
"None of that makes me feel better." Paris said before she walked out on Lucien but he stopped her
In his mind, this is the solution that everybody's been looking for. In Paris's mind, well, it's nothing more than a mistake waiting to be made.
"Paris just listen. Once you take the serum, you will die and then Camila will move on. When you've turned into a vampire, she can't take over your body anymore since you're already dead. And because of the serum, you'll gain more control over yourself." Lucien tries to persuade Paris again but she made it clear about how she feels about that idea.
"I'm not going to take that serum, Lucien. Do you understand me? Never. I'm desperate to get this thing out but not desperate enough to turn myself into a vampire. So, could you please drop that godawful plan." Paris responded.
Paris opens the front door and left Lucien standing outside, disheartened that Paris had turned down his offer. Although, he expected it. He expected Paris to reject his idea. But he still attempted to convince her that it's the only way, not only because it could save her from Camila, but also because he can't bear the thought of losing her.
For the short amount of time that they've spent together, Lucien surprisingly developed feelings for her, which also shocked Lucien, considering the fact that the only person he ever fell in love with before Paris was that psycho from earlier. Aurora de Martel.
"Paris turned down your offer. I'm shocked!" Damon said sarcastically.
Lucien looked over to his direction before his facial expression turned into an irritated one.
"Oh, wait. Not shocked. Because Paris wants to live her life. And what you're offering is the exact opposite of living her life." Damon pointed out while he approached Lucien, who is still standing on the porch of the Fell's Residence.
"I knew she wouldn't accept my suggestion. I know her." Lucien said with nonchalant.
"But not as much as I know her. So, if you don't mind, stop following her. If you do, well, I don't care." Damon said.
