"Stay away from me." I cry rushing down the stairs but he appears in front of me 

"This is no way to treat your new landlord." he whispers 

"I am not yours, and I want you out of my house now!" I cry 

"Funny about ownership, isn't it? A little piece of paper, and the only power you had over me is gone." he says

"What do you want from me? " I ask 

"Everything." he hisses

"You can't have it." I state 

" I bought it." he counters

"You bought my house. The house does not come with me inside it." I hiss 

"Well, then, I seriously overpaid." he says and I smirk 

"That's your problem." I hiss before walking away but I turn around when I hear him speak again 

"Your blood tastes like freedom, Megs  Like sunshine in a pretty brunette bottle. And while they may not know it yet, that is what vampires smell when they smell you." he says and I scoff

"Is that a threat?" I ask 

"Absolutely not. But others will find out, and when they do, you'll need protection. I can provide that for you." he says and I laugh before walking away 

"I'm willing to take my chances." I cry over my shoulder but then in a flash he's in front of me again and i sigh nearly slamming into him 

"I bought this house because I care about you. If all I wanted was to taste your blood again, I could do it right now, and there wouldn't be a thing you could do to stop me. But instead, I am asking you to be mine." he whispers and I sigh moving away 

"I could never be with you the way I was with Bill." I say moving to the kitchen to get myself a drink 

"The first time Bill declared you his, how did it make you feel?" he asks 

"Angry." I reply 

"But safe? You'll come around." he says following me into the kitchen to slide in front of me again and I sigh once more

"You're not listening to a word I'm saying." I whisper 

"I know you. There are two Meghan Stackhouses. One who still clings to the idea that she's merely human, and the other who's coming to grips with the fact that you are better than that." he says and I laugh 

"And what do you think's gonna happen when I do come to grips with it? Do you think my legs are just gonna magically open for you?" I whisper and he smiles 

"Well, that was saucy. Must have been angelic Megs talking. I like when she comes out." he says and I shake my head 

"And I'm already sorry I said it." I whisper 

"Don't be. The more you let her speak for you, the more likely you are to go on living. And you want to live, don't you?" he asks but I remain silent and I guess he can see the answer on my face "Well then, I hope to hear from you girls soon. I'll see to it that gets repaired." he says as the door squeaks behind him. After a while I find myself becoming bored and rushing over to Bills house but when I step towards the door and a bunch of people in black suits step out with guns and I raise my hands in the air 

"Name and purpose for your visit." One asks 

"Um, to see Bill?" I reply 

"Nobody sees the King unless they're on the manifest." he states and I gasp 

"The King? King Bill?" I ask  

"Let her in. King says to let her pass." Another one says and I sigh before stomping into the house when I open the door to Bills room I see him and a woman fixing their clothes 

"Megs, this is Katerina. Katerina's part of my security." Bill says but she looks at me with disgust
