Ok, so the first line of this made me think of that State Farm commercial. "Who are you talking to?" "Uh, Jake, from state farm." "At three in the morning? Who is this?" "Jake, from state farm." "What are you wearing, 'Jake' from statefarm?" "Uh, Khakis." "She sounds hideous." "Well, she's a guy." LOL I love that comercial! Sorry for that random rant.

        “At three in the morning?” I asked, with a smirk.

            “Well, are you going to go back to bed?”

            “No.”

            ‘Then we have to do something productive.” Grayson turned around and walked back towards his house.

            “What the hell are we going to plan about? I never said that I was going to help you.”

            “You don't really have a choice.” Grayson growled.

            “What's an Alpha?” I asked.

            “The leader of the pack, the one who is in charge.”

            “What pack are you in charge of?”

            “Lupus Sanguine.”

            “Wait, you’re in charge of the pack that killed the Queen? The pack that caused me to change Liam? The pack that tried to kill Cain and Charles?!” I growled. “There is no fucking way that I am going to help you!”

            “You have no choice!” He turned on me and we were inches apart.

            “I have a choice! You can kill me before I will help you!”

            “You're not going to die but you're going to wish you did!” He jammed a needle into my neck.

            I lunged at him and tackled him to the ground. I went to punch him in the face but his hand caught mine and he flipped us over so he was on top.

            “Can't take me down without injecting with me, can you?” I pushed him off me and ran. I wasn’t sure where I was going to go, but I wasn’t staying there.

            Or that’s what I thought before I was tackled to the ground. I tried to fight back but the werewolf blood Grayson injected me with was kicking in, but I wasn’t going under this time.

            I kicked whoever was on my and started pulling myself away when Grayson picked me up. I knew it was him because of the feeling I was getting. I struggled to keep my eyes open and he walked me downstairs and to the cell. He tied my arms and legs.

            “If only you had behaved.”

            “If only you weren’t a dick.” I mumbled.

            “I'm surprised you're still awake right now.”

            “I'm surprised you're still alive right now. What are you going to do to me?”

            “Well, Maya said that there are three stages to a vampire who is running short on blood. First, you go weird and super happy, then you get angry and want to kill everyone and then you realize what is going on and you realize you are going to die. See, we’re going to wait until that stage to make you work for me because if you don't, you'll die.”
