A startled expression on Caleb’s face confirmed that he was not exactly on board with this idea, “Why the hell would we do that?”

“So that we can have a backup?” Ashton mumbled in an obvious tone.

“You really think they will send backup?” Caleb scoffed, “What they’ll do is call both of us back so that we are out of danger.”

“But what if we get caught in all this mess? What if you get caught all in this mess?” Ashton’s voice got higher by the moment. “What if...”

“Look, Ash, I get it. You are worried, but so am I”. Caleb huffed. “I am too worried for us, but...” He took a deep breath, “Like she said, we are good at hiding, with our overall lack of scent. Besides, we can’t keep running away everytime we face danger.”

“I am not suggesting running away...” Ashton tried to explain but Caleb cut him off.

.....

“I know...” Caleb sighed. “But I also know my pack... my Dad. I have spent a year here and I have waited for you for most of it. I made the decision to come here so that I could move on with my life, to experience life outside from the pack. I don’t want to just give it all away and go back Ashton”! He explained as anger overtook him.

“Okay Okay...” Ashton grabbed onto his mate’s hand and rubbed held it tightly in order to keep him calm. “We don’t have to tell the pack. But please, tell me you would be careful.”

“Of course!” Caleb exclaimed. “Look, I love my life, I have no intention of dying!” Ashton ended up snorting at that and a slight smile appeared on Caleb’s face. “By the way, you be careful as well. I assume you have never met a vampire?” Ashton shook his head confirming Caleb’s statement. “Well, then look out”.

“Of course. How can I disobey you”? Ashton said with a flirtatious smile on his face earning an unamused glare from Caleb. Suppressing his smile he put a quick peck on his mate’s lips thus exiting the premises.

“So, did you find out anything?” Karolyn asked. It’s been two weeks since the last time they met. This morning they decided to meet up once more to discuss the vamps and currently they were in a tousled room of the old campus building. This place was as messier as it gets, but at least it would ensure privacy.

“Quite a lot actually,” Caleb admitted.

“One of the vamps is my classmate. He doesn’t attend many classes. I only met him once” Ashton added.

“Did you talk to him”? Karolyn asked.

“Well...” Ashton trailed off.

Seeing him fumble, Caleb decided to take over for him. “Well, in case you didn’t know he doesn’t talk much...” Caleb mumbled awkwardly pointing at Ashton who simply looked away.

“Really? Never noticed that about him” Karolyn mumbled sarcastically earning a glare from Ashton.

“But, he did eavesdrop on this guy”. Caleb confirmed. “And a little bit stalked him”. He chuckled when Ashton simply rolled his eyes.

“That’s... not so bad.” Karolyn smiled. “So, what did you find out”?

Clearing his throat, Ashton began, “Well, this one’s name is Billy Montague. He is not exactly social either, so he wasn’t involved in many conversations. I saw many girls and a few dudes gawk at him, so it was people who were discussing him mostly”. Ashton informed.

“Makes sense” Karolyn sighed. “Vampires are supposed to attract human attention. That’s one of the ways to lure in their prey. Like a moth who is attracted to a flame”.

“Yeah, that sounds about right”, Caleb mumbled.

“What about the sun? It didn’t affect him? If he is in your Department, doesn’t it mean he needs to go out for sports”? She asked.

“He is into swimming. We have an indoor swimming pool” Ashton clarified. “Although he seemed bothered by sunlight, he didn’t seem physically affected by it”.

“He must be a daywalker,” Karolyn declared.

“What”? Both Caleb and Ashton exclaimed at the same time.

“Did none of you study about Vampires?” She frowned.

“I never had a pack” Ashton shrugged, “I don’t know what his excuse is” He shrugged casually pointing at Caleb who simply pressed his tongue against his cheek.

“I was never interested in Vampires. They hardly show up these days”. Caleb shrugged.

“Wow” Karolyn smiled sarcastically before she continued. “A day walker is the one who has the ability to tolerate the sun. A night walker doesn’t”

“Seems... pretty obvious,” Ashton mumbled.

“Why the distinction”? Caleb asked.

“A pack can have an Alpha, beta and an omega, why can’t there be variety amongst Vamps”? She asked him back. “There are other differences too but this is the basic one. While the daywalkers are usually called less aggressive, they are more dangerous due to their ability to hide in the plain sight.

They are less suspicious to humans, not to mention they are easily attracted by the Vamps. This in turn makes them way more dangerous than the night walkers in a way”. She sighed.

“Seems about right” Caleb mumbled, “Did that girl try to attack you a second time”?

“Not really” Karolun sighed. “I have been trying really hard not to run into her while I am alone. I think even she might be avoiding me”.

“So... you are gonna avoid each other’s existence for eternity?” Ashton asked, unconvinced.

“Well, no one was found drained of blood though, so Imma go ahead and maintain this facade. If people start to die a lot I might kill her” Karolyn shrugged.

“Don’t you think... that’s harsh”? Caleb asked.

“Not if she is the one killing innocent humans” Karolyn huffed.

“Have you ever killed a vamp before”? Ashton asked her. She nodded casually as if it was totally normal. Both Ashton and Caleb’s eyes widened a bit as they looked at each other mirroring their expression.

Before their conversation could proceed further, Karolyn mumbled, “Something’s wrong”.
