she had just referred to her race as the choice of meals.
         "So you have fangs then? Well show them to me?" If you want me to bite, you're gonna have to prove this one and show me your bait.
         "Only if you will start to take this conversation seriously. I mean I know it's a lot to take in. But trust me, I'm telling you the truth and don't fear me."
         "Okay, I will and won't." Get your vampties out of a wad.   She smiled sweetly at him as he arched an eyebrow before turning his stare back out the window.
         Reaching up he grasped the dark blue curtains and closed them, turning the room now pitch black. Swift movement and the light was turned on, she turned looking behind her and there he was by the light switch. She blinked and of course again there he was standing in front of her. She took a step back but his hands were quickly on her arms pulling her back to him.
         "I'm sorry. You startled me." She admitted it. After all she had no choice.
         "It's okay Sweet. Are you absolutely, one hundred percent, positively ready for this?"
         She took a breath and half expected nothing, yet somehow knowing she was about to see the truth.   "Yes."   She let out the air that she had just taken in, lowering her eyes to his mouth.
         He opened his mouth and slowly his eye teeth began to grow. They pressed into his lower lip causing just a small indention. She inhaled air deeply. She couldn't help but want to touch them. Her mouth open slightly, partly in disbelief and the other part arousal.  Something about this was sexy as hell for her.
         Her fingers moved up slowly and she could see his eyes close as her fingertips brushed over his fang. The tip was very sharp needle sharp. She was careful as she ran her finger over it.  They were slender but strong. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. It was real. Very real. And that meant if he was then there were others.
         Her heart was pounding and now she was terrified. But not of him. Were the others like him? Or were they like in the movies?
         "No Taylor, they are not all like me. My family is. For the most part we all are. But there are a few that choose to live off human life. They choose to live in complete darkness. Like any species, there's good and bad. There's nothing that we can do about the ones that choose to act as they do. And you're not afraid of me because you know you don't need be."
         "Why did you tell me this? And why last night?"
         "Because you are my mate. I know this is difficult to believe. But it is true. I loved you before you were born. There's always been a connection from you to me. I just had to wait. I couldn't come to you before because it was too dangerous. Then when I thought it was safe, you were marrying Chase, happy. So I had no choice but to wait again."
         "Wait? For what?" And then she realized what he meant. Chase was why he waited. If he could feel what she was feeling, hear what she heard, then he knew about Chase and he could've warned them. He could've helped her. He could've taken it all away and instead he left her to suffer. On her own. For six God unblessed years!  She had been living that day over and over again and he could've taken it away.
         Tears raided her eyes. Her breathing grew heavy. Her chest once again tight. Her heart pounded uncontrollably. She even felt faint. Quickly she sat on the floor with her knees pulled tight into her chest. Her head tucked in low.
         His hands were on her shoulders immediately. "Are you okay? Taylor I think this is been enough for one day. Let me give you some water." And then she was in his arms and by the table. She stared into his eyes at his blurred face.  She blinked repeatedly trying to clear the tears so she could see him clearly.
         Slowly he sat her down into the chair. "I'll be right back." And all she seen again was a blur and he was by the sink holding a glass
