breaking from Brandon’s challenging stare. Backing up against the nearby wall, Josh’s back got slathered in paint, but he was too afraid to notice. He looked nervously over at the doorway where Christian and two other vampires were standing.
There was a scowl on the Master’s face as he stood with his arms crossed, his eyes not leaving Addison. He seemed hesitant to go to her, a slight wrinkle in the middle of his lowered brow as he tried to keep up his strong stance. He wasn’t standing out in front of the others like he normally did and seemed to be avoiding her.
"It’s all right. I’m here to help you through this, my dear." Putting her hands under Addison’s arms, Nicolette slowly pulled Addison to her feet. "I know it’s hard…" Looking into Addison’s terrified face, she slowly stroked the side of Addison’s cheek as she tried to calm her down.
She leaned close to Addison, cooing to her in a motherly tone as she looked into Addison’s watery eyes. "And I know you’re hungry, but you must resist it. This is a test to see how well you can withstand the urge."
Addison’s lips were pouted slightly, the wetness from her tears making them shine like a clear lip-gloss. She sniffled and wiped her nose with the back of her hand as Nicolette turned her around and made her look at Josh, Nicolette's hands planted firmly on her shoulders.
Nicolette pressed her cheek against Addison’s, both of them looking at Josh as she spoke softly. "Now go up to him and try to suppress the desire to bite him. Show the Master and the others how strong you can be. You can do this, my dear."
"Will you stop me if I can’t?" Addison’s eyes stared straight ahead, her bottom lip trembling as she looked fearfully at her brother, who was cowering in front of her. "Don’t let me hurt my brother."
"You must be the one to stop yourself. I will not intervene if you can’t hold back the temptation."
"Okay. Let me try it." Addison nodded, Nicolette pulling away from her slowly and walked over to Brandon. Speaking to herself, Addison balled her fists at her sides, a determined look on her face. "Okay. Okay. You can do this, Addison."
Taking a deep breath, she took a few steps closer to Josh, her confidence growing after each shaky one. "Josh." She held her hand out to him, a scared look in her eyes, a sweet smile filling out her tender lips. "I’m sorry. I wasn’t going to hurt you, I promise. This is the first time I’ve been close to a human since my initiation. The hunger took me by surprise, and I got scared. I’m sorry if I scared you. Please forgive me."
"It’s…okay." Josh was trying not to look afraid, even though he was. He looked briefly at Brandon, who was standing next to Nicolette. His towering figure was very intimidating, the hardness in his stare showing his jealousy over Addison’s deep affection for her brother.
"Can I have a hug?" Addison held her hands out to Josh, a fragile smile on her face that looked like it could turn to tears within seconds. "I won’t bite, I promise."
Josh swallowed hard, taking a step toward Addison as he opened his arms. "I’m holding you to that, Addy ." Chuckling nervously, Josh wrapped his arms around her shoulders, slowly rubbing her back as he held her loosely in his arms. "You okay?" There was a strong bond between the twins, and the soft loving tone in his voice soothed her.
"Yeah." Sniffling, Addison clung to Josh tightly, a few tears falling as she snuggled into his neck. She could feel Josh shake in her arms, the brother who always protected her was now the one needing protecting. "Are you afraid of me, Josh?" Being so close to him was hard, as Addison still had the overpowering urge to bite him. She closed her eyes, her fingers digging into his back as she tried to push back the impulse.
"No."
"Really?" Hearing Josh’s words, Addison opened her eyes as she grinned. Her grip loosened on him, and she found the strength to push away her hunger. "I was really
