Delancy left a good first impression on me. She was cute, had a practical temper, and a laugh that sounded like actual joy rather than a polite social obligation.
But that was before the hunger took root, before the whispers in my blood started demanding a specific frequency.
If I can't stop this change from happening any further, it won't work out.
I can feel the fact that I'm not even human anymore.
I actually feel kind of bad. It's not my fault, though.
It's all because of Lucas.
"Hey, Tyler!"
"Hello," I sighed. Damn, she was hot. What a letdown.
"Thanks for calling me out. I was really worried about you after last time," she smiled, tilting her head.
Damn! I had to play this cool. "Thanks. I called you here to tell you that I'm not available," I forced myself to say, keeping my voice steady.
Delancy raised a brow in surprise, her eyes narrowing just a fraction. Believe me, I wish I was joking too! "Even for something casual?"
Fuck! "Not even for that."
