Sebastian scoffed and arched an eyebrow, "No, I don't think so. You'll hurt her and maybe it's hypocritical as hell but I don't feel like being the reason. I hurt enough people on my own, I'd rather not have any help in that area. Besides, it'll just distract you remember."

He shrugged, "If it makes you feel better, I doubt she'd ever tell you or even let on to it... even if she was aware of it... and I'm not sure she is."

Maybe if she could still see beauty, she'd find the way the stars reflecting off the still surface enchanting but as it was it was only... a pleasant diversion. She knew there were other Strigoi nearby, knew she'd have to be careful because they felt far older and far more powerful than she was, but she was willing to take the risk for now.

Anya stepped out of the glow of moonlight and back into darkness, she didn't wish to linger any longer than was needed. So far, she had not been approached and she hoped if she kept her visits brief she never would be. Her fangs flashed as she grimaced, back to hiding...
