Emelia's neck who was lying in his arms unconscious. She could see his teeth had sunk deep into her neck, betraying the red liquid that was on his face.
On his lips was a long trail of blood to his chin, his expression was radiant with rosy cheeks.
Turning her head she looked at Emelia she was looking extremely pale, in comparison to him.
Sophia exchanged glances with Bernard as she stood there, looking at his shocked expression made him begin to loosen the grip on her at the same time he removed his mouth that was still on Emelia's neck.
Bernard tried to display a calm look on his expression, but within, he was already nervous and was panicking, amid his chaotic thoughts and nervousness, Sophia's question brought him back to reality.
"Bernard what are you doing?" She icily said, with anger on her expression.
Sophia stared at Bernard with a dark look," Bernard what are you doing? And who are you?" She questioned again.
While she said this her mind immediately went back to the other night when she had caught him and Dave fighting.
Hearing her repeat the same question and with the look on her expression, Bernard was stunned at this moment there were many thoughts in his head at this point, but he couldn't tell her what he was doing right? He also couldn't tell her he was sucking her blood because his life had been in danger a moment ago?
Bernard had never been this confused in his entire life as he was at the moment, no matter what he had to say one thing was clear. The truth was right in front of her and she had caught him not long ago. If he said any lies or even tried to deny his actions of not being self-aware, it will only appear like a pathetic excuse of a rap*st caught red-handed.
He was not sure if he should tell her he was a vampire, after all, he was afraid of being captured by the academy army, his last shred of freedom would obviously be stripped away from him and he would be subjected to a non-stop experiment.
He sat there looking at Sophia who was standing by the doorpost with her hands folded akimbo, it was the perfect time, to tell the truth of what he was at least in a normal sense. After all, she already had her speculation, but he was hesitant as he gulped his saliva confused for a moment before opening his mouth.
"I am a v..." Bernard was just about to reply when he received a notification message that made him shocked.
[Warning! You may choose to either decline or accept however it shall result in unimaginable consequences]
Looking at the message, he could understand the underlying meaning in it, without thinking too much, the system obviously doesn't want him to tell the truth her the truth, that he was a vampire besides he didn't know what the unimaginable consequences would be, however, he wasn't willing to know once bitten twice shy.
Taking a deep breath, Bernard was unsure of what to answer and had no way, to tell the truth. 'I obviously can't tell her the truth, what should I do now?'
Sophia continued to watch him for a while now, so he was sure she wanted answers. When she had seen him that night, she had obviously suspected something and wanted to know the truth, and now donning the mask of catching him red-handed she would not miss the opportunity to dig every piece of information out of him.
Although she wasn't able to watch everything because of the descent of an aboriginal divine sense, nevertheless she had still seen him, trying to do something out of the ordinary.
Bernard debated what he should reveal to her and whatnot, but was finding it hard to come to a decision since she might not even believe him even if he told her the truth in the first place. So, eventually, he decided not to tell her anything and ignored her question. If push comes to shove he would just stop talking to her, not like she had any evidence against him he thought internally.
"Sorry, I can't answer your question," Bernard said after five minutes, this was the best he could say even though not telling her the truth would increase her doubt it was for the best, after all, he couldn't just go around telling everyone he met that he was a vampire right?
"Hmmm?" Sophia was surprised at his speculiar answer since it wasn't what she was unexpecting, hearing what he said and the fact he didn't budge raised her doubt by a notch, now she was sure he had likely been instructed not to tell the truth she was sure even if she reported to the academy with his status has the hidden ace and heir of two aboriginals he would come out unharmed as expected of the heir of the aboriginals she thought staring at Bernard intently.
While he was thinking of what to do, it was unbeknownst to him that he had just escaped the hands of the god of death.
Since he couldn't give her any proper answer to her question even if she was angry and stop talking to him, he thought it was best if he could get Emelia out of his room and to the medical center.
Even though Emelia was lying on the ground unconscious, Sophia showed no intention of helping him out since he didn't tell her the truth. Why should she help him anyway? And what for? Based on being his supposed friend?
While he thought of carrying her to the academic medical center, he thought it would be best if no one saw him doing it and hence needed to check to confirm if the hallway was safe.
However, firstly he needed to make sure Emelia was alive…cough..safe, and still breathing, otherwise there was no telling what kind of commotion carrying a dead girl to the medical center would cause.
