Chapter 4

-Alana wakes up in a dark room, the curtains are closed and there is just one lamp on, she is in a bed, and there is someone in the room with her but she can't tell who it is because her eyes are too wide-

Alana: Where am I? Who are you?

Ashton: You are in my house

Alana: Ashton?

Ashton: Yes

Alana: Get away from me!

-She tries to stand up but her body doesn't hold her and she falls back to bed-

Ashton: Wow, easy there Alana

Alana: Ashton don't get any closer

Ashton: Why?

Alana: Cause you are a vampire!

Ashton: A vampire that has been saving you your whole life

Alana: I don't even know you, you just came and said hi in the university

Ashton: Yea, but I know you, too well, more than I should

-He winks at her and approaches her with a glass-

Alana: What are you doing?! What is that?

Ashton: Calm down, this is just coffee

Alana: Yea, I prefer not to drink it

Ashton: Oh come on

-Ashton takes a sip-

Ashton: See, it isn't poisoned, now drink it, you have to recover

Alana: Where is my mom?

Ashton: She is in a secret place

Alana: Come on

Ashton: She is in Galaga's house

Alana: Her friend Galaga? She is a vampire hunter too?

Ashton: That's correct

Alana: And what happened to my dad's body? And what did my mom injected my?

Ashton: Easy with the questions

Alana: It's just that everyone has been avoiding my questions and I need to know how my life changed from one second to another. If it is true the whole "I have been protecting you your whole life" then why did that vampire attacked me?

Ashton: I wasn't there when he attacked you at first but I arrived

Alana: Where were you?

Ashton: Hey it's not my fault that all this happened, I just let your guard down for a moment

Alana: I am not blaming you I'm just asking where were you

Ashton: It's a secret

Alana: Are you serious?

Ashton: Sorry Alana, but you can't know everything

Alana: But I know nothing

Ashton: That's not my fault either

Alana: Fine, so you just entered to my university to check on me?

Ashton: I knew that the Vilkham family had come recently to New Orleans so I had to be much closer to you until they left

Alana: And why? Why do you protect me?

Ashton: That's another question that we will save for later
