LUKE'S POV.

When Mrs. Song asked to see me, I actually needed to see her too. What Ari said on the rooftop really scared me.

She was already showing signs of her powers. Did my bite really do that, or was there something in the concoction that made it suddenly manifest in such a fashion?

I should have known from when I saw her on the rooftop of the next building. She looked pale and white, but her beauty was undeniable. There was just a slight resemblance to the Vampire Queen, but she wasn't quite there yet.

I'd thought the sudden slight resemblance had to be because I recently found out who her parents were.

But it was far from that— Her vampire side was rising.

I followed Mrs. Song from the breakfast room, and we went to the back of the house to discuss so there would be no chance of anyone overhearing us.
