It's all an act.

Kameron.
I knew Everly was awake now by the panic and tension I felt. I could feel what she felt now and strangely I was okay with that. With being marked you can communicate without talking. I'm not going to hurt you. You're still alive right? I communicated to her as I made breakfast in the kitchen.

[haileyjordan]

Everly,
I froze when I heard his voice but couldn't see him anywhere. I looked around, my heart racing. Oh god, I'm dead I thought to myself as I flung open the door. Even if I wasn't dead I was going to die of a heart attack. I walked through the hall, just trying to leave this horror house.

[lauren.]

Kameron.
I chuckled as I flipped some pancakes, No, you're not dead. If you stay we can have a little bit of a chat about what's happening, I said simply.

[haileyjordan]

Everly,
Hearing his voice in my head made my head hurt. I shut my eyes, rubbing my temples. There is no way in hell I'm staying here. I don't know what you are but I know that you attacked me I replied back. Was I losing my mind? I knew the only way out was through the front door, where he probably was. I wanted to cry so bad. I was trapped in an apartment with a psychotic thing.

[lauren.]

Kameron.
I pursed my lips,Im not stopping you from leaving at all. But I think it'd be much easier if we could talk this over, instead of you having to experience things by yourself, I yawned as I finished breakfast. "By the way, I have breakfast ready for you,"I called through the house.

[haileyjordan]

Everly,
Experience things by myself? What was he talking about? I bit my lip, now needing to decide between running, or figuring out what the hell was going on. I slowly made my way down the hall into the living room. I swallowed and froze when I saw him come into view. I immediately felt embarrassed.

[lauren.]

Kameron.
I turned to look at her holding up a plate,"Breakfast?"I asked raising an eyebrow. She was definitely sexy when she has just woken up.

[haileyjordan]

Everly,
"I'm not very hungry." I said softly, not leaving the spot I was in. I was afraid to go near him, afraid that he'd do what he did to me again. Of course he would act so calm about this.

[lauren.]

Kameron.
"Alright,"I said setting the plate down. I leaned against the counter crossing my arms as I looked at her. "So would you like to talk?"I asked raising an eyebrow. I hated how I acted last night but I couldn't help it.

[haileyjordan]

Everly,
"I don't know, are you going to attack me again?" I asked, rubbing my arm. I looked away, then back over at him. I could still feel my neck pulsing; I hated the feeling. What the hell was there to talk about?

[lauren.]

Kameron.
I pursed my lips as if to think about it,"No,"I said, not completely lying. "And there's plenty to talk about. There's a lot to know about bring Marked,"I said pushing away from the counter. I grabbed the two glasses of orange juice, well one with blood in it, and slowly walked over to th me couch to make sure I didn't frighten her.

[haileyjordan]

Everly,
"Being marked? What the hell are you talking about?" I asked as I watched him carefully. "How can you listen to what I'm thinking?" I felt myself begin to panic again.

[lauren.]

Kameron.
"It's part of being Marked,"I said as I set the drinks down on the coffee table and took a seat on the couch. "Make yourself comfortable,"I said nodding towards a chair. "You see, I'm what mundanes call a vampire,"I said watching her intently.

[haileyjordan]

Everly,
I stared at him, unable to even process what he said. I laughed slightly, "Yeah, okay." I said. Vampires didn't exist. They were fictional storybook characters. I really wasn't in the mood for jokes either.

[lauren.]

Kameron.
I raised an eyebrow,"Really now? Then how do you explain what happened last night sweetheart?"I said. I swirled my drink and took a drink of it.
