'Why did you come back?', Sam asked looking at Daryl with arms folded.
'I am not as nice as she thinks, and I came because of the bond not because I care that much', he replied looking down.
'She will come to ask some questions. You will tell her the truth, wont you?,' Sam asked eyes wide and brow raised with fury written all over his face.
'I wont, I don't wonna lose my blood.....' Daryl said gritting his teeth and shaking his head slowly.
'So, all you care for is your blood bag. You know Thawn is right about you, we shouldn't have trusted you. And I didn't really like you!', Sam shot at Daryl angrily.
'At least she's our friend, you could choosen another person for your blood bag, and I even thought you were weaning yourself or something!
'Hey, easy pulse man!', Daryl snarled angrily with his eyes glowing yellow.
'You wonna suck me too. Go on and do it, isn't that what vamps do. Go on!', Sam flared
'Arghh.....', Daryl groans as his eyes changed back to normal and he exhaled. 'What do you want me to do?', he asked.
'You tell her the bitter truth and let her be free of whatever charm you put on her', Sam said huffing
'Okay.....I will..', Daryl whispered reluctantly and he clenched his fist. 'This stays between us', he added.

'Hey,' Kado said as Max woke up trying to raise his body. 'How do you feel?,' he asked.
Taking a breath and savoring the fresh air into his nose, and flexing his muscles slowly ,"I feel good", he replied with a little smile.
"Thank you, Max, for everything." Kado said smiling and patting Max.
'It's okay', Max replied and nodded at him just as Thawn came in. They both shared a glance and nodded, then Thawn motioned for them to come outside. Once they were outside, Thawn began.
'The war has just begun. We have to protect your identity from others. Which means you have to get absolute control of your emotions so your wolf won't be triggered. We still have threats from the other wolves. They will want you by all means. And about the dead people, I know they are dead because someone is carrying out an experiment on humans biting them. So now we have to fish out who that is', he explained further
'We don't have any leads yet. But Sam gave me some briefs as where the bodies were found. We can go there again to see if we can find any clue',
'When do we go?', Max asked.
Kado pressed to his shoulder gently 'Leave that to us okay', he whispered to him.
Max exhaled. Why won't they believe he's now fine, the wound was now healed but he's still feeling some pains though. He remembered he was shot with an arrow and thankfully it didn't pierce any vital organ but he did lost much blood. Also thanks to Caitlin skillful treatment and his super healing, he survived.

Gina stared at Daryl trying not to believe what he said. But it's the truth but she just couldn't confront it like that.
'So you came because you didn't want your blood bag to die huh?, She mused and Daryl just exhaled.
'Am really sorry. I ....uh...I will do whatever you want me to do. A vampire don't fall in love that easily', Daryl said closing his eyes.
'But one thing is sure.. The way I felt for you is real, even though yours is not real to me. I guess I should just find someone else', Gina sniffed as a tear washed down her eye and she went away from Daryl. Daryl stared at her as she was going, she is a strong lady but she didn't look like who he once loved. He's still in mourning of the love of his life.
Closing his eyes, he remembered how things went before he came here. Then the memories came rushing at him, clenching his fist hard and his claws dug into his palms making blood drip.
He was born with the ability of an apex vampire, the ability to manipulate blood in another person's body and for this he was wanted. His clan was one of the strongest clans in the vampiredoom. His brothers were strong vampires but both have been killed while trying to protect him. He would never forget the Camarillo too. The long time enemy of vampires. Of course,vampires have a lot of enemies and it's usually those who see them as a threat.
He has been on the run for long, after many years of running. He had only hoped for the day he can be able to fight back. With the BITTEN by his side, he saw a glimpse of hope and his eyes sparkled bright.
