Chapter 11 Disturbed

• Cayson follows, staying at a distance so she doesn’t notice him in the shadows. It’s clear she isn’t in control, but what – or who – is making her go there?
• Vampires can manipulate if that’s their power, but they never leave the victim alive. The problem is that he doesn’t know what else it could be. He stops, as he sees Olivia come to a halt; watches as she sits down, his eyes widening as he sees a man walking to her. Olivia stands up and hugs the man, who the moonlight reveals to be… Dan? She must have been right earlier, it was Dan she saw, but the fact just renders Cayson more uncomfortable. He watches knowing he can’t do anything even though he wants to: there’s a reason Dan keeps pulling her in and Cayson needs to know it. Why would he taunt her by getting her to come here every night then making her forget she saw him? He’s fascinated by Dan’s behaviour. It isn’t exactly typical. He watches as Dan’s head lowers towards Olivia’s shoulder, Cayson fighting back every urge to go over there and drag him away from her but he just can’t. He needs to be sure Olivia has no idea what’s happening rather than just lying to him because she’s enjoying it for some crazy reason.
• He watches as Dan finishes feeding and stays sitting with Olivia; they seem to be talking, why is he doing this? What does Dan have to gain from getting her to come back night after night? He can see from here that Dan has killed and became a Monventla, but the question is, why is he stupid enough to keep getting Olivia to meet him here? Cayson holds the phone in his hand, feeling his hand tightening on it in frustration. He angrily swipes to open his messages.
