Kieran had no choice. Maybe giving her part of the truth would help him get out of this sticky situation. "Centuries ago when I turned sixteen in vampire years, I was struck with an ailment which caused me to turn deranged every full moon."

Clarissa had not been expecting that. His revelation reminded her of the time she had snuck to the East wing and seen that deranged vampire.

It was obviously difficult for him to tell her this.
