"I know what you are" ((Me and Wrath))

Leila looked at him and she did as he asked, taking five deep breaths. Slowly her eyes turned back to their normal shade of green. She looked at him and stood up. She nodded and said "Sure I'll show you". Leila was still very nervous. She did not know what she would do at the first sight of a human.
 
Ravel follows her from the door and lets out a deep sigh. His first thought of if she encountered a human he would discreetly inject his blood into her neck. His blood would act as a sedative. That was only if. The sooner she could gain self-control over her new urges the better. “Hmm a gelato…what is that?” He asks her when they start to walk around outside. He was simply trying to distract her.
 
Leila looked at him and said "Its a type of ice cream...made by Italians" she said to him. She walked out of the Inn and into the street. Immediately her mind was telling her to kill them all and bathe in their blood. Her other side stopped her self. He might have been able to see the strain on her face as they walked through the town. Pretty soon they reached a stand where a man was selling gelato in a variety of flavors. She looked at the man and got one for her self, the man handing it to her in a decorative cup and giving her a spoon. She picked up the spoon and began to eat it slowly.
 
"...Ill take one too." Ravel asks for one as well and quickly follows beside her. "Now you need to first concentrate on your meal. Don’t allow anything else but my voice influence you." He needed to help keep some control over her actions. He takes his spoon and picks at the gelato.
 
Leila looked at him and said "Alright". She shut out everything else form her mind and began to eat, focussing on the taste in her mouth. It was a pleasant coolness inside her.
 
"Now...whenever you have an urge to attack someone take a deep breath and think of a cool lemon gelato." Ravel tells her. This method may in fact work. Once finished here, he leads her to a farm. This was just a few minutes away and out of the public. He leads her further, now in a barn, which held cows. "Pick out the cow you think is the most delicious cooked." He says showing her the selection.
 
Leila looked at him and said "Alright". She followed him away from the crowded public eye and into the barn. She looked at him before she looked the cows over. She then pointed at one in the middle and said "That one".
 
"Good...walk up to it." Ravel tells her trying to teach her how to handle herself.. "Do not look it in the eye.. or pet it." The moment she is beside the cow he gives her another command. "Now bite into its neck...deep and suck." He feels the now constant regret that she would take a life. Even though it was an animal.
 
Leila looked at him and said "Alright". She did as he asked, moving towards the cow slowly. She did not pet it or look it in the eye as he had told her not to and she sank her fangs into the cows neck and began to drink down the blood that pooled into her mouth. She closed her eyes, the animal inside of her savored the rich metallic taste.
 
"Drink it." Ravel orders her watching her feed off of the cow. He waits about a minute before he tells her to stop. "Stop now." He quickly commands her. "If a vampire sucks the last drop the vampire will go insane and never stop." He warns her.
 
Leila reluctantly pulled her mouth away from the cow. She wanted to keep going, but that wasn't her, it was the new animal inside her. She looked at him and said "I understand" she said softly.
 
“Now…do you feel any more satisfied?” Ravel smiles at her for a change of pace. Once Leila’s fangs left the cow it fell to the ground. It had collapsed due to its massive blood loss. ”Are you still hungry? If so pick out one more cow. We have to leave soon.”
 
Leila looked at him. She watched the cow fall to the ground. She felt a little guilty for hurting and innocent creature, but her other side revealed in the sight. She pushed that side of her away and for the first time in about the last hour or so, she had managed to block off that new addition to her. She was herself again. She looked at him and said "I'm bit hungry, we can leave" she told him softly.
 
Ravel sees her react to the cow falling. "I know it’s hard but it’s your alternative to humans. Lets go get you something to eat." He sighs and walks with her out of the barn. "So. Do you still plan to live at your home?" He asks her in a very serious voice now. "You may have control of your power now...but you might feed on people as you sleep..."
 
Leila looked at him and walked out with him. She looked at him and said "I carn't just vanish....they are my parents..." she said to him. She looked at him and said "I carn't leave them..." she said to him softly.
 
"Maybe for now would be for the best?" Ravel places his hand over his face. "You can return when you have that...gift of yours under complete control." He places great emphasis on "complete".
 
Leila looked at him and looked down for a moment. She didn't want to leave her parents...but she did not want to hurt them either. She looked at him and said "Maybe your right...maybe I should leave them..."
 
"You can return to them one day...I promise you that." Ravel tries to comfort her. This was never an easy thing to do. It was however a necessity. "You can stay with me for the time being. Ill keep you in control. I mean it."
 
Leila looked at him and said "All right". She then looked at him. Her old roots seemed to poke at her and she realized something was very off. She looked at him and said "It's not very proper for a man and women to be living together out of wedlock" she said softly. She had been brought up, even if she was from the lower classes, to be a proper lady. She may have just gone through a massive change but she was still the same person as before.
 
Ravel chuckles at her small comment about living together. "Heh to be technical... we aren’t quiet...living...are we." He tries to make it sound positive nonetheless. "Its great however that you insist on keeping yourself proper. Despite your new self." This would sound as if he was being rude, while only trying to be sincere.
 
Leila looked at him and said "I was brought up this way, would you rather me be a courtesan or something?" she asked him. She crossed her arms for the moment before she began to walk out of the barn slowly.
 
Ravel follows beside her. A courtesan? That must have been sarcasm. She seemed far from that type of woman. "I’m not asking that...just... the rules for you have changed." He sighs he truthfully hated to make such a change to a life unless if it was necessary. "If it will keep you and those you love safe than yes."
 
Leila continued to walk. She seemed to frown as he responded. She stopped and looked at him and said "You be quite" she said somewhat sternly, with a frown on her face. "I didn't ask for this, I would have gone to the next life happily, but now I carn't, so I'm sorry if I want a sense of normalcy in my life" she said and kept walking.
 
Ravel walks a foot behind her, catching up to her a second later. “I’m sorry…I felt that you would have wanted to live…if you had the choice. I did this for you…” He lets out a loud sigh. He was in troubled waters now. "I just dont want you to go through what I had..."
 
Leila looked at him as he spoke to her. He was right in away, all humans would rather live than die. He had done what he thought best. She looked at him, he voice a bit softer "What happened to you?" she asked.
