Chapitre 153: Second Chance

"Are they fine with you being around me now?" she asked him. She knew that it was years later, and he was an adult, but did his control change in that amount of time?

She didn't even know how all of that worked. At a time, did he want to drink from her?

She almost felt like that was too personal of a question to ask him.

Elias nodded.

"I'm older now. I've shown them how much control I have over myself," he told her before looking over at her. "I'm back."

His words made Alyssa's heart pound heavily. She realized that they were free to get back together if they both wanted to.

But did she want that? Did she need that? Deep down, she had feelings for him that refused to go away, but she had created a new life for herself here that didn't involve him. She didn't know what to do.

"Well… thank you for telling me everything," Alyssa told him, trying to gather herself as she stood up from the bench.
