~ quotes from Thoughts of a Biologist and New Moon

«I don’t know, Vlad» a dark haired vampire said in the night «If he’s in a pack, attacking him we’ll start a feud and it’s not what we want right now». The two creepy vampires had been observing you for the past three hours, following your scent and your moves. You weren’t particularly interesting, after all you were almost boring but you thought the two of them decided to follow you because a child of the moon is rarely seen in Romania. In fact, against popular belief, there weren’t many packs that lived in the country permanently. But you weren’t part of a pack, you didn’t need one and you didn’t want to share your time with someone else. Since you were old enough, you left your family and travelled alone throughout Eastern Europe and Asia.

The other sighed. «Maybe it’s not what you want, Stef. We could use some chaos across Eastern Europe to distract the Volturi».

You saw the one named “Stef” shook his head in disapproval. «That may be true, but we have no allies here». You decided you had had enough of them and that it was time for them to leave you alone, so you started to move close to them.

«Emh, Stefan» the fair haired one said «he saw us». Stefan looked towards you, only to find his eyes locked with your yellow ones. Both vampires immediately tensed. You were growling at them, trying to scare them. But they knew better.

In the blink of an eye, a fight burst out. You trying your best against the two vampires, but soon realized that you were helpless in front of their speed, their immortal bodies and their venom. One of them but you hard in the neck and you felt yourself pass out while changing to your human form. ~~~~~~~

You felt someone holding you down to the ground by the wrists. You opened your eyes only to find the face of the fair haired vampires right in front of yours. You tried to get him to move, but in vain. He grinned. «Stop. You know it’s useless». You felt rage growing inside of you. The vampire smirked looking down at your naked body. «Stefan» he then called «what a surprise, this wolf’s a girl!». You saw discomfort on Stefan’s face. «Well, if that’s the case, Vlad, I suppose we can change our manners into gentler ones». Vladimir looked at you and studied your face. You showed your teeth to him, but he didn’t look impressed. «Oh, I don’t know, Stef» he said «she doesn’t look gentle at all. She’s rather boyish if you ask my opinion».

«Nobody asked your opinion» you said, only to Vladimir’s amusement. You saw that also Stefan was grinning. Vladimir now did look impressed. «You’re one of a kind, I like it».

«Not enough to free me, though» you said, feeling that your wrists were starting to ache under the tight vampire’s grip. «Then you’ll leave, I don’t want you to leave just yet» Vladimir said. You wandered why, but didn’t dare asking. You only wanted Vladimir to let go of you. «I don’t think I can move right now, the venom is burning and I…» you shivered in pain.

«Vlad» you heard the dark haired one call «I don’t think she’s lying. She knows better than that». You felt Vladimir let go of your wrists. You sighed in relief. You tried to pick yourself up but discovered you couldn’t due to the venom circling in your body. Vladimir grabbed you before you could fall and handed you his jacket, which you took and wore immediately. Luckily it was so long that it fit you like a dress, covering you until the knees.  

«Look at the mess you’ve made, Vlad, she’s dying!» Stefan said. Vladimir turned his head to him and stated you were not dying. «Perhaps Stefan if you want to do something helpful you could start a fire so she doesn’t freeze». Judging by the look on Stefan’s face, Vladimir hardly ever spoke to him like that. You wondered why but didn’t dare to ask it out loud. Stefan nodded silently and left running.

Vladimir looked at you. «What’s your name?». «Y/N» you responded, shyly. You didn’t trust him at all. «Y/N, I’m sorry for what happened a moment ago. Do you have a pack to return to?» he asked, and you shook your head. He seemed surprised. «I’ve always preffered living on my own. I don’t want to struggle with rules I don’t agree with» you stated, and Vladimir nodded as he understood. You continued: «And then those bastards are ruling from their hiding spot in Italy, so there are many stupid laws about secrecy and immortal children and because of that blonde masochist that somehow seats on a throne next to Aro we, the children of the moon, are being hunted and killed for no reason». You saw that, for some odd reason, Vladimir’s eyes were sparkling in amazement. «You…» he smiled «You hate the Volturi?». You were confused, but managed to nod in agreement. He seemed to smile even wider. «Do you know who I am? I mean, do you know my story?» he asked, and you were confused. He put a hand over your shoulder. «Let me tell you, my dear Y/N, how the Volturi destroyed my life». ~~~~~~~

You were resting near the fire that Stefan had started a few hours prior. The story Vladimir had told was still in your head. It was a violent story and it only incremented your already heart-felt hatred for the Volturi. Vladimir came near you. «You could join us, Y/N» he said «I would protect you and care for you». You were shocked by these words, no one had never asked her to be a part of a coven before. «Vladimir, I’ve always lived on my own and I don’t-» you started, but the vampire didn’t give up. «Y/N, I would treat you well, like a queen if you want! You have my word, you’ll be safe». You started to consider the offer. «You’ll be happy» Vladimir added and you lifted your head in a questioning way. He then came near you, embracing you with his cold arms. «I feel this pull towards you, Y/N» he stated, and you immediately blushed. «You’ll be safe with me» he repeated and you felt that your heart had already made a decision of staying with him. «Okay» was the only thing you could say as Vladimir fully embraced you.
