Changing Tristin was an experience Laisé could ever prepare for. His half
vampiric blood filled her with more strength then her witch blood could
ever provide. Although Laisé is full of this perfect ambrosia she is
drained, her friend sleeps on the couch, a drop of blood on his lips from
his feeding. Careful not to wake him Laisé creeps to the stairs and climbs
them, retreating to her domicile. Before she is able to rest in her plush
bed Laisé notices Kristopher sitting at her vanity. "I thought you went
home," she says and sits beside him on the bench. "I wanted to make sure
you are alright." He turns and wraps his strong arms around Laisé's petite
waist. "You aren't like him, You never were human, he isn't right for you."
She stands and turns to face him, "And what, you are!?! I am like him!
Where do you get off acting like my father!?! Maybe I'm not human," Laisé
leans in to Kristopher and begins again with a calm and lull voice, "but
he's the closest thing to love I have and you will not get in my way to
have him." A choleric face stared into Laisé's eyes, "I'de warn your love
that you've brought him into a world that doesn't want him." Kristopher
warns Laisé and disappears. "You will never touch him." She whispers to the
darkness. With some reluctance Laisé decends the stairs and enters her
living area. Tristin still lays on the couch, his breathing deep and
unnecessary. Careful not to wake him, Laisé climbs onto the couch and lays
beside him with her arms around him, "I will protect you."
