“Maisie!”, Astor yells. How does he know my name? I never introduced myself to him. “Do not respond”, Kate growls, still fuming. “Maisie!!”, Astor yells again, looking me in the eye. What the hell is he up to?. I feel the urge to open my mouth and respond. “Maisie!”, He yells again and that’s when I see it. A flicker of movement in his eyes. He’s trying to speak to me without being obvious. “What do you want Astor?”, Kate growls at him. Astor twists his head to the side and assesses Kate. “Shouldn’t you be on the hospital bed in a coma?”. s**t! I need to tell Astor Kate has been possessed by a Maniac and shouldn’t hurt her. And that reminds me, how is he able to see through the tinted glass from the outside?! Is that another special ability of Dhampyres? If it is then it’s so cool.
