Taste for Danger [Completed]

Chapter 9

The Next Morning

Sebastian woke up and got ready. He made his way to Lizzie's room to check up on her. After what happened the night before he wanted to make sure she was okay. He got to her room and knocked on her door. Somebody call out from the other side of the door saying to come in. When he entered he saw Lizzie sitting down at her desk getting ready.

"Hey Lizzie, are you okay?" He asked

"Yea I feel fine. Actually I feel great." She responded chirpily

"Are you going to go to class?" He asked

"Yea, why wouldn't I?" She said

"Well considering you just turned into a vampire, you should probably take it easy. The first couple of days can be hard, considering all your emotions are heightened and you still haven't been able to control your blood-lust." He said getting closer to her grabbing her hand.

"I said I'm fine, now stop! I know I was a mess yesterday but I'm fine. Can you just back off?" Lizzie said angrily pulling away

"Lizzie I'm trying to help you. I've been through what you are going through." Sebastian said

"I need your help, Sebastian. I'm fine." Lizzie said walking out of the room. Sebastian wanted to be there for her, but she wouldn't let him. He didn't know what he was going to do, Lizzie could hurt someone if she wasn't careful. He decided to go to class and try to keep an eye on her.

Alaric was in his office, on the phone with Caroline. He was explaining to her what had happened to Lizzie. He told her that it was time to come back and be with her daughters. She told him that she would be on the next flight out and she will be there. Alaric didn't know how to handle the situation, his daughter had died and turned into a vampire. Lizzie was going to need a lot of help to get through it, he knew that she would deny all the help that was being offered to her but she will need it. He didn't know if she was going to go to class or not. Hopefully, she was going to stay back and try to adjust to her new reality.

Sebastian went to talk to Josie and try to find a way to help Lizzie without suffocating her.

"Hey Josie, can I talk to you for a second?" Sebastian asked her

"Sure, what about?" She said

"I went to check up on Lizzie and to help her get used to being a vampire, but she doesn't want my help. I want to help her control her blood-lust but I don't want to suffocate her, what should I do?" Sebastian asked

"Lizzie isn't going to accept herself, you have to let her drown before you can help her. She doesn't want you to let her see as weak, so she'll just deny you help. Let her be by herself for a bit. She still hasn't let the fact that she is now part witch part vampire sink in." Josie explained

"Thanks. Will you keep in eye on her during class, she might be on edge because she hasn't fed since yesterday?" Sebastian asked

"Sure," Josie said. Sebastian made his way to his class. He was really worried about Lizzie, she knew that throughout the days he will suffer the effects of not feeding. The good thing was that Josie was going to keep an eye on her. He sat through a boring lesson, he wanted to get out of class and check on Lizzie. After class, he went to his room to work on some homework. When he entered his room he saw Lizzie sitting on his bed with head down.

"Hey Lizzie, are you okay?" He asked

"I'm so hungry. I thought I could control it but I can't." Lizzie said moving her head up so she was looking at Sebastian. She had the veins under her eyes out and her fangs were showing. This was what Sebastian was afraid of, she had been trying not to feed and it was going to kill her.

"It's okay Lizzie, I'll get you some blood just stay here," Sebastian said, he vamped speed to the kitchen and grabbed some blood bags. He figured he should get one for himself since he hasn't fed in a couple of hours. He took them back to his room. When he entered Lizzie was laying down under the covers of his bed.

"Here, drink this. It'll help." Sebastian said giving t to her. Lizzie took it immediately and opened it. After taking a sip of it she stopped immediately. It tasted different than she tasted it yesterday.

"Is this animal blood?" She asked

"Yea it's much different than the real stuff, but I thought we should start you on the animal blood," Sebastian said as he took a sip of his own blood bag.

"Thank you. I just feel like I'm losing control, I'm sorry for pushing you away earlier. I just don't like feeling weak. So I'm sorry" Lizzie said finishing her blood bag

"I get it, it's okay. I was trying to help you, but I understand. I'm just glad you're fine." Sebastian said sitting on the bed

"Thank you for not being mad at me for snapping at you," Lizzie said

"I wouldn't get mad at you for something like this. Everything is heightened your emotions are all over the place, so I get it." Sebastian said

"What do you want to do now? Do you want to go to the old mill's property and you can show me some fighting skills?" She asked

"Are you sure you can handle it?" He asked smirking

"I should be asking you that I am stronger than you now." Lizzie said smiling at him

"Trust me you're not as strong as me. I've been alive for hundreds of years, it'll take you a while till you get on my level." Sebastian said

"We'll see about that." Lizzie said making her way out of his room and going to the old mills property. Sebastian followed behind her smirking.
