Outcast

Chapter III

"So what is it you do?" Hellen was approached by a vampire woman. She had seen her around a few times, but hadn't had the chance to actually interact with her. Hellen looked at her. Her stunning blue eyes and bright golden hair stuck out to her. Her skin was extremely pale like everyone else here.

"What do I do?"

"You're the human right? David's little pet." Hellen looked confused. David's little pet? Her? A pet? Hellen frowned deeply and shook her head slowly.

"David saved my life from his father, but I'm not -- "

"But it doesn't make you his pet?" She finished. Hellen nodded slowly seeing there growing grin spread across this woman's cheeks. Then she laughed. She laughed at Hellen in the middle of the hallway outside the door where David had told her to wait.

Just like a pet.

"You're so gullible! It's adorable." Hellen frowned more. Most of the vampires here didn't care to come interact with her. Most of them staid away ever since she came here, but there were the few like this one here who became curious as to why Hellen was here. There were a few who had the balls to come and slander her, calling her names and addressing the fact that she was only alive because David wanted a pet.

"Leave her alone Amanda." Both of them turned and seen David exiting the room. The blonde vampire - Amanda - stood another inch taller when he showed up Hellen noticed.

"David I was just -- "

"Leaving." Another voice came and it was that of Thomas. Amanda quickly lowered her head out of respect. Hellen had never seen someone become so submissive so quickly. She looked between David and Thomas. Although she was use to David, Thomas was still that of a mystery to her.

"Yes sir."

Amanda said as she backed away quickly before retreating down the hallway. Hellen watched as the woman disappeared rather quickly.

"Are you alright Hellen?" David questioned causing her to look back to him. She gave a quick glance between the two.

"Yeah I'm fine." She replied seeing Thomas looking at her intently. She glanced back over to him. His eyes watching her closely.

"Have you eaten yet?" David questioned. Hellen's eyes snapped back to him, he looked at her like he always did since she arrived. Like she was any other human.

"Not yet. I've been waiting here like you said." Thomas chuckled. Hellen looked to him and watched as he fiddled with his cane.

"I think she's deserved a meal, don't you?" Hellen looked to Thomas. His lips moving about in a manner that attempted to mask his smile, but his eyes told her the truth.

He was highly amused.

"Go. Have your lunch. And when you're done come to my office. I have something I need to show you." Thomas said as he grabbed his cane and moved swiftly past the two of them. Hellen moved out of the way and watched as he left. She then turned her attention to David, who was also looking at her.

"Come on, let's get you fed."
