Innocence

~Chapter Six~

"This is the City Hall; and over there is the Statue of Legal Creature's Rights. As you see there are from wolves to ghosts in the statue, so it encircles all the creatures to be holding that balance between what's good and what's wrong."

I looked around the city and was awed at how formal and nice everything was. Tho, everyone went on their own way. No one looked at each other unless they were family or part of their clan/pack. That's the only bad part. But everyone seemed to be at peace in that way so I guess it's good.

"Do you like it so far?" Angel asked me as we stopped on a red light. I gave him a shy smile and slowly nodded. He didn't smile but had a peaceful look on his face; he was calm. "Do you want to go eat something? Or drink? Or both?"

You know? It's actually nice to be with someone of your same species. By that I mean being a hybrid. With the vampires, I had to drink blood and whenever I wanted to eat meat, they would look at me as if I were insane. Then, when I am around wolves, and want to quench my blood thirst, they look at me as if I were a crazy lady. But when I am finally with someone who is of my same species, everything feels normal.

"Okay." I said with a giggle and he chuckled.

"I know how it feels." He said and pressed on the gas as the light turned green. "People like to judge a lot but they don't look at themselves before. I think it's stupid."

I nodded and he just drove on. We haven't spoken much until we got to the city and he started telling me what was what and where was what and so on. After the incident at his house, we've barely had any eye contact nor spoke about anything else.

"There's this really nice place downtown where they make these really good baby ribs covered in blood." He said and I couldn't help but let my fangs slide down by the mention of blood. I haven't drunk blood since a few days aback. I have eaten, but my thirst for blood hasn't been quenched 100%. I have never gotten out of control whenever I'm not 100% quenched because I have never gotten to my limits. I think only once I did get to my limit but I never got all crazy about it.

I licked the tip of my fangs and looked out the window. I wonder how my family is. I wonder if they miss me or if they've cared of looking for me... I may seem all calm now about this, but it's just because I hold it in. I want to be strong because I hate being weak. Fear makes you be weak, and I hate that. The brave wolf inside of me helps me and keeps me from falling down and crying out of fear. And I am quite grateful that.

Angel finally stopped in front of a building and turned off the engine. He got out of the car and I did the same. He locked it and walked over to the building. People would stare at us but Angel just walked in as if they didn't even exist. So I did the same.

"Good Afternoon, and welcome!" A female voice greeted us. I looked over at her and she was smiling brightly, her eyes twinkled whenever she'd look at Angel.. I don't know why I suddenly felt my inner wolf bear her teeth at her. I gave her a nasty glare for no reason because I couldn't help it. What the hell is wrong with me?

"Hey, Katy." Angel greeted her and she blushed. All that flew around my head were the many ways to plan her death. I don't know why I was feeling this way! What the hell! I don't even know her!

"Hey.." She said and smiled at the ground. "It's nice to see you here, Angel."

Okay.. it's clear they know each other. I don't care about it. I'm just hungry and thirsty and I a bit angry for no reason. But really, I'm just hungry. I need food. Now.

Not to have this bitch batting her eyelashes at him...

I blinked and looked away. Okay...
