Lysander gently took her hand from his cheek and kissed it. ”I won't hurt you. I’d swear in Latin in church if I could go there.”

¨I know¨ she said.

“Why do I feel like you don’t believe that then?” He asked gently, finally meeting her eyes. ”Please tell me.”

¨My Visions are never wrong¨ she said.

He shut his eyes as if he was in pain. ”And I hurt you in one?” he asked in a tight voice.

¨Yes!¨ she said.

Lysander barely held back a shuddering breath. ”Then… If it's true… I must not have recognized you. Starvation, or as close as I can get, drives us into a frenzy. We can't tell one source of blood from another. We go mad trying to feed.” he was near tears. ”It happened to me once before.”

She took a breath ¨I´m Not scared¨ she said her voice shaky.

”I am.” he admitted. ”Everyone I end up caring about and I hurt them.” Lysander sighed. ”It was my parents the first time. Charles had already taken me in. Away from them but I went back and…”

She knew where this was going ¨Hey it´s okay¨ she said.

He shook his head and continued to explain. ”I stayed with them for a whole month before I lost all control. I don't even remember doing it. But I remember their screams, waking up to their drained corpses and being covered in their blood.”

Betty´s Eyes Turned White Flashbacks of her mother played in her head before her eye´s turned normal.

He sighed and shook himself out of those memories. ”I’m sorry. Maybe I shouldn't have told you that. But I really don't want to hurt you.”

Betty took a deep Breath Clsong her eyes ¨I Know¨.

He reached a hand to touch her but pulled himself back. ”If you don't feel safe with me anymore, I’ll understand.”

¨I Do I Love You And I Always Will¨ she said.

”And I, you. Forever.” he replied truthfully but he didn't let himself relax.

she wrapped her arms around him ¨Itĺl Be okay¨ she said.

He placed an arm around her. ”I’m sorry, love, but I won't let that happen to you. The thought of hurting you, I can't stand it.”

¨I Know I´m Okay Your Okay We´re okay¨ she said.

Lysander sighed, trying to think of precautions he could take to protect her from himself.

¨I Can Protect Myself¨ she said.

“I know you can. I just want to help you. I know my weaknesses.” he pointed out.

¨I wonn´t be able to hurt you´ she said.

He shook his head. ”I won't ask you to. But there are ways to stop me… Ward me off.” he chuckled a little awkwardly. ”One or two of them are a bit embarrassing to admit to.”

¨Your not gonna hurt me okay? I´ll make sure you feed¨.

”That's not what worries me.” he admitted. ”I’m sure we both will but what if the reason for what you saw is because of some kind of bloodborne sickness or a short supply. I wasn't around for it but Charles told me about surviving the black plague.”

¨I need to show You Something¨ Betty said.

Lysander turned to face her with a raised brow. ”Yes? What is it?”

Betty clossed her eyes a white aurora coming from her palms.
