[hider=Iris][color=lightgreen]Iris sipped at her water, slightly ashamed that she had asked him why he didn't have a mate... Or more so, why he no longer had a mate. She lowered her legs out from under her sweater and moved her glass to her lap, staring at the water, "Sorry... I didn't know." She took a deep breath and figured it best to go back to the question he had just asked rather than prying about his dead lover. She brushed another strand of hair out of her face, "And.... Um... harsh... That was a little harsh, my feelings have been properly hurt. Good to know that everyone does hate rather than it all just being in my head," She sighed and looked out the window. She had ignored it before but she could see lights in her house, shadows walking through the rooms. Her roommates were home... They were just keeping her out. She took a deep breath and looked back at Shadow, "It's the real me... Everything I've said since the moment I got here... has been the real me... one hundred percent the truth." Okay, maybe not one hundred percent but everything did have a truth in it. [i]I'm a werewolf.[/i] Half a werewolf. [i]My family was killed.[/i] Well, my parents... my sister is fine, in fact she currently living at Coven and we are working toward peace... She sighed, "So... everyone just hates... me." She took another sip of her water. She wouldn't admit it without the humor but that really did hurt. She was here because her sister was at the Coven and she hoped she could help these people... However, she didn't want to live her life hated by the very same people. She put down her glass as she felt a stinging feeling in her eyes and stood, pushing more hair out of her face, "I should go... I probably won't be getting into my house tonight... I should go find somewhere to sleep... Thanks again for the food and water and dry clothes," She walked over to the fire placed and gathered her slightly damp clothes in her arms, "It was nice to get out of the rain for a little while..."[/color][/hider] [hider=Leopold][color=dimgray]Leopold smirked as he heard Crimson's voice carry through the dining room as she informed him of her opinion. He looked at her, "Well, Miss Crimson, I work hard for my followers. I believe I've earned the luxury to drink from a human in the dining room, don't you?" He watched her as she walked into the kitchen before his attention was pulled away by the sudden presence of a cat on his lap. He looked down at Ban rather quizzically and smiled, "And here I thought you never left the girl's side." He took the cat into his arms as he stood. Shifting Ban into one arm, he wrapped the other around the girl's shoulders. He brought his fangs to her neck and bit down. The girl gasped as her eyes glazed over. A vampire bite released certain endorphins to make the experience of death a little more pleasurable for the one dying. Also, it was so nice not to have to fight with your dinner all the time. This girl had long since been addicted to those endorphins and came willing whenever called upon. Finishing, he released her and waved for the servants to take her away. He then walked to the kitchens and opened the door, "Miss Crimson, I do believe I have a friend of your's."[/color][/hider]
