Then all of a sudden, all the men fell asleep including both her grandfathers. Victoria, however, watched in complete shock,
'What…What just happened?' she thought as she stared at her four paws and thought again, 'It wasn't me but who?' then, she realizes that she forgot about Andre. She turned around to see from where she is that from up the hill that Andre was still there.
Nevertheless, he yelled, "Are you going to transform back to a human or do you wish to stay like that?"
Victoria unknowingly de-transformed back to a human again with the help of her necklace that started glowing again in a weird way that even Andre's eyes glowed in the colour of blood red. Then, he grabs his throat that is throbbing with a thirst for blood and Victoria ran towards him in worry. "Andre what's wrong?" her adrenaline was pumping as Andre glares at her saying,
"Getaway! Don't come any closer or-" he gasped for air but Victoria panicked and thought for a moment and asked, "Do…do you want to drink my blood?"

For some reason, Andre wanted so badly to answer but he couldn't because if he opened his mouth he will start drinking her blood? He wasn't sure if he wanted to or not but then, Victoria said, "Wait here."
Moreover, with that, she left for a search, but he could not concentrate well enough to know where she was heading. Once she was gone, he said to himself,
"Why would she 'tch' go to so much trouble helping me? I just…don't understand her, how can she be so-" before he could finish she came back. She was carrying, that looked like a dead pheasant.
"Here, can you eat pheasant's blood? I know you drink blood so I can't be sure though…" she said with her awkward- questioned voice as the sight of her pink lips made his mouth water in thirst and then, he looked at it and grabbed it by the neck as he started drinking the pheasant's blood.
Victoria's golden eyes did not waver his drinking sight as she was placing herself next to him by a meter.
Then she asked him, "Andre?"
"Hmm?" he said trying to concentrate on his meal, "Do you get thirsty whenever you make people sleep?" she questions him in curiosity as she kept staring at him with her enchanted eyes.
Once he wipes his mouth with his arm, he clears his throat and says, "Well…how should I put it?"
As he let go of the dead pheasant and looks down at the ground now with his sky blue eyes he asked her, "Why do you care?"
"Well, I am curious to know since we've only just met each other two days ago and the fact that they are all asleep because of you and won't drink my blood even if I'm nice, just for today," as she started her answer for him, he chuckled at her answer even if it did sound dramatic. He said, "You have a point though I was told I would die young because of this power somehow, I managed to survive it all without a problem. However, as a vampire, I am the most powerful vampire in my family and now look at me talking to a half-breed which is being nice to me."
With that comment, she stared at him in wow and surprised that he's almost weak but getting stronger every single day. While spacing out Andre flicked his finger on her forehead as she pouted in anger, while touching her forehead, "Hey that hurts remember I am a half-breed I can't handle that much coming from your strength idiot."
"Shh, if we go now we won't get caught let's go." He said as he started carrying her bridal style and ran with his inhuman speed forward.

Moreover, as Jasper woke up first he scanned the area and noticed the smell of the same red-haired vampire that saved both him and his granddaughter. However, he also noticed that his granddaughter is missing; he saw from far that his granddaughter Victoria left the vampire at Highcloud gates.
'Victoria, be careful with him, he is dangerous do not fall for him,' he thought warningly from where he is standing as he started walking towards the cabin with his injured abdomen still bleeding. However, he gathered his things before leaving the scene and, as for the Cornelian soldiers they started to wake up.

As he kept running, while carrying Victoria in his strong arms, he then suddenly dropped her to the ground and started to hide. But before Victoria had the chance, she was being pulled by the collar of her white blouse as she was about to say something Andre immediately covered her mouth and said in a low voice, "Quiet you… their soldiers over there so, I suggest you stay quiet and follow my lead, alright?"
She started at him with a 'really?' face but, obeyed his order and looked behind him. Moreover, spotted the same soldiers she flirted with yesterday and pretended to be drunk too for her grandfather's sake. Which was very embarrassing thank god Andre wasn't there to see that, because if he did she would be blushing every time he mentioned it.
However, Victoria cleared her throat and asked, "Um…why are we here, Andre?"
However, he turned his head to look from his shoulder to see her face as he answered, "Well I'm obviously going over the gate back to my place and as for you, and you should head as far away as possible and head to Aspenhallow. But don't you dare pass the gate and follow me because if you do then, you'll be sorry."
"Huh, that's some answer, Andre," she huffed at him raising one eyebrow. As she pondered her strangest ideas to go above the wall to see what is so dangerous over it.
Nevertheless, Andre sprinted his way to the side of the wall, he immediately jumped up so high that you could see him as if he were flying in the sky itself while Victoria's eyes never left his beautiful sight. His scarlet red shining against the cloudy mixed with the scorching sun, his eyes that were scarlet has now turned to sky blue eyes as clear as the ocean, his oval face looked so smooth and white as pearl. Nevertheless, he eyed her with a reassuring smirk on his face.

However, Andre couldn't stop looking at her from above the gate, that he felt a weird sensation coming from his heart that made him feel his heart racing for the first time since he was born. Besides the fact that he questions in worry within his thoughts 'What…what is going no wait-wrong with me today, God I just know that she is…' he raised his left hand to his side and continued walking back home, Bloodcrest Castle. Although he did feel relieved to share his thoughts with her.

Victoria wondered about the last few minutes she has to know Andre while he was drinking pheasant's blood she hunted down for him to feed on even though she offered him her blood but he refused her offer. However, she felt somehow relieved, calm after that, and even glad that he shared some of his pain with her.
"I should probably head back to the orphanage and pack my stuff so I can have a real adventure, once I'm done packing I'm heading back to the gate but the only this time…I'm going over it just like he did," she said it with full confidence as she hurried her way to the orphanage just as she said. However, little did she know, that a certain or strange figure was hiding and watching her every move as he said, "Victoria Fairchild Greenwolf, I hope we can see what you can bring to our fine land full of vampires," as his sharp teeth showed smirking evilly to himself.
