blood is thicker than water

❝ We define ourselves by our family. From birth we share their names, entrust them to protect that which we hold most dear. We value them above all others, and yet inevitably, we are forced apart.❞

“Yes, you can’t tell me this is the first time you’ve ever taken a life,” Nikolai scoffed. “We all fuck up, you’ve been alive for how long, Kyra? It happens to the best of people, you’re not a monster for this. You weren’t you, so stop acting like a child and face the facts.”

“You know what? Fuck you. Why should you tell me how to feel when you can’t sort out your own bloody feelings! I’m not a child, NIkolai, I just hate what we are, I hate what I did, and I’m pissed most people turned their back on me! Like they always do!”

“You’re not stupid– don’t call yourself stupid,” he said, squeezing her shoulder gently.

“I am.” Kyra sighed softly. “I always, always let myself get hopeful. Get attached.” The girl shook her head, “I should leave.” She murmured, “Leave Stillwater. Leave the country.”

“What the hell does that even mean, is that the new excuse vampires use to justify their blood lust?” he asked rolling his eyes. “It’s good then that I don’t really feel the need to kill you.” he added dryly.

“I’m not justifying it. I made mistakes. At least I feel guilty for killing people.” She glared at him, “You couldn’t kill me, Nathaniel.”

“No, you don’t deserve that, Ky,” Tanner replied, “Every vampire turns it off at some point. You aren’t responsible for what you did, you didn’t have your humanity.”

Kyra forced a small smile, “It’s nice to know someone still believes in me.” She murmured.

“Every vampire should do it at least once apparently,” Adeline muttered softly, “Maybe we can start with a drink?”

“Whoever said that can shove a stake up their ass.” Kyra rolled her eyes, “Sounds good to me.”

“I know, I know. But I can see who you are now.”

“And who is that?”

“I am not very eager to talk about it anyway. I just want to put things back like it was before but that’s impossible. The second best thing would be drink till I forget.”

“I feel that. Let’s go get hammered, drinks on me.”

“I promise I’m not,” he shared a small forced smile. “What were you kind of hoping?” Adam added curiously.

“Alright, okay.” She murmured, frowning slightly. “I-uh, never mind, it was stupid to think.”

“Yes of course I’m fine– I’m just worried about you is all. Sorry if it came across differently,” he said softly. “The feeling is mutual, Ky.”

“It feels like you’re lying to me,” She sighed, “But I’m not going to push, I guess I kind of hoped- never mind.” The girl forced a small smile.

“Oh of course, of course,” he muttered softly, deciding he shouldn’t have expected a different answer from that. “Well you can be sure nothing will happen to me. I’m always going to be here for you, Kyra.”

Kyra frowned, “Adam, are you okay? Did I say something wrong?” She mumbled, “Good, because I don’t think I could ever handle loosing you. You mean a lot to me, Adam, more than you know.”

Adam nodded as he listened, sighing softly. But as she spoke, something caught his interest and he raised his brow in curiosity, “Wait– you said she’d only take me away from you? What do you mean by that?”

“I-You’re my best friend, Adam,” The girl mumbled quickly, “She has a habit of taking people I care about away. I don’t want that to happen to you.”

“I could never think that of you,” Adam said softly, his words genuine. “Emiliya?” he raised a brow at the unfamiliar name, “Who’s that? Who is she and where is she? Because I’m ready to give her a piece of my mind,” he said, his tone changing to a rather stern one.

“I don’t understand how.” She sighed, “A powerful siren that once stole someone I love, and now has stole my sanity. She’s gone. I believe, besides, she’d only take you away from me and I couldn’t take that.”

“Wh.. what?” he asked sounding confused. “I am so used to keeping on apologizing, it feels really weird to hear someone else’s apology.”

“Well. I’ll spare you the shitty things I’ve done if you spare me what you did. No judgement here.”

“I hear you have been slaughtering half the town.” he snapped at her. “You’re lucky Camille is alright or I wouldn’t have hesitated to slit your throat.”

“My humanity was off. I regretted it. It’s really none of your business.” Kyra rolled her eyes, “Funnily enough, that wouldn’t have killed me.”

“I care,” Adam spoke as he walked to Kyra, giving her a hug. “Good to have you back, I missed you.”

Kyra sighed softly, wrapping her arms around her brother. “I’m sorry.”

“Of course you’re not,” Tessa said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. “Who the fuck told you otherwise?” she added, suddenly getting angry and protective.

“Maybe the fact that I killed people and tortured an innocent girl.”

Adam put his hand upon her arm comfortingly, “It’s okay. I forgive you– you weren’t yourself. I’m sorry about all the things you did… there’s nothing we can do to change that. But I must ask… what made you turn off your humanity in the first place?”

“You must think me a monster.” Kyra murmured, head bowing down in shame. “I- Emiliya, she- she managed to get into my head and manipulate me into killing innocent people. God, it killed me inside and I thought turning it off would help but- I was wrong.”
