                                         ??? POV 


The man wrapped me in his tailored coat, covering my wounds, the man had inhuman speed as he took me to an apartment of his, 

The man sat me on the counter, examining the wounds I had, and then he did something I never would have expected, 

His eyes changed and fangs emerged from his teeth, and he bit his wrist, he held it out to me, 

"I.. I don't understand..." I said looking at him completely confused, 

"I will explain everything in time little one but you need to drink, it will heal your wounds, you are losing a substantial amount of blood," He said 

"Heal me?" I said tiling my head, 

"Yes, now drink I promise it will be alright," He said 

He brought his wrist to my mouth, and I slowly took his arm with my tiny hands and started drinking the blood, my mouth around the wound he made on his wrist as I drank from it, the taste of the blood made me want to throw up, but he said it would help, 

Even through he is a stranger and I have no memories... I trust him, 

My eyes were closed, not wanting to look at anything while I was drinking blood from this man, 

I stopped and he slowly took his wrist away from my mouth and hands, 

"That should do it I believe," He said checking everything, 

He had to wipe some of the blood off to make sure the wounds were closed because of how much they were bleeding, 

He grabs a hanker chief from the coat that was still around me, and wipes the blood from my mouth, 

"Now I believe I did not introduce myself, I'm Elijah," He said 

"I assume you have some questions yes?" He asked 

I nodded, 

"I assume you are confused, perhaps I should explain, I am a Original vampire, my blood healed your wounds," He said 

"Vampire?" I said tilting my head, 

"Yes, one of the most powerful beings that walk this earth," He said 

"One?" I asked tilting my head, 

"It seems I must explain a lot to you little one, but I do not wish to overwhelm you," He said 

I nodded, 

"But there are also, werewolves and witches," He said, 

I nodded as I listened to him, 

"Now what I must know is what is your name little one," He asked 

"I... I don't remember.." I said 

Looking up at him, he looked a little surprised 

"What do you remember?" He asked as he cleaned my face and head of blood, 

"Nothing, not before waking up in the middle of the woods like this," I said 

"I see," He said 

I looked down sadly, 

"Do not worry child we will figure it out," He said 

"How do you know?" I asked tilting my head, 

"I have been alive for over a thousand years old, I've seen a lot little one and I'm confident in figuring this out," He said 

I nodded knowing full well he was capable of this if he is that old, I thought
