"You look tired" Mika told his friend as they left Kai's apartment. The wolf scoffed, his shoe kicking an empty water bottle from in front of him and throwing it in the middle of the road. Mika watched it roll, its sound loud in the quiet street, and then his eyes returned to Philip.

He had his hands in the pockets of his jeans, his head facing the dirty pavement and his lips had formed a thin line as if he was trying to stop himself from saying something.

"What is it?" he asked.

"It's nothing." he answered without even a second to look at him.

"You can't hide from me."

"Yes, but apparently you can." Philip told him and the redhead stopped. He stared at him, his eyes squeezed as he chose to keep walking. Since Philip seemed like he had no intent of stopping Mika grabbed his arm and pulled him back, forcing him to.

"What the hell does that mean?"

"You think I wouldn't notice? What you did to the chain? You must be really stupid. I can't even think why you would want me to kill Kai. Because I am sure it was about him and not Lun. I don't even want to ask you because you will probably lie." He said and started walking again.

As it seemed his plan hadn't been as flawless as he had thought. Not only Philip but Lun too had come to know of his little scheme. The truth was Mika hadn't thought of it much either. It was a last minute decision, almost like a whim. The thing was that he was scared. Scared that his best friend would meet the same end once again. Maybe what he did was truly wrong, maybe he shouldn't involve himself in things that didn't concern him but he couldn't stop. Philip had no idea what was going on and once again he would fall victim to that killer, it was already starting.

"I did it because he is not supposed to be here!" Mika exclaimed, trying to catch up with him. "He is evil Philip, you have no idea what he has done."

"He doesn't look evil to me." His friend told him. "Believe me, I hate vampires as much as you do but I hate them for a reason. I hate them because they kill people. Because they are obnoxious and mean. Kai doesn't fit in that picture so I don't get it why, why are you so obsessed with me staying away from him?" Philip shouted.

"Because you will end up dying in the end!" Mika shouted back at him and Philip stared at him, stunned by his mysterious words.

"What the heck are you talking about?"

"Everyone this person has cared about has dropped dead. Back at the witch's house they called him a fugitive, he did something, Philip and now even his own kind is probably going after him." Mika tried to explain to him without revealing the important parts.

Philip remained quiet, he stood at the side of the pavement, near to an alley that smelled of trash and he frowned not knowing if it was because of his mind that was trying to connect the dots or because of the ugly stench that was surrounding him.

While Kai was talking in his sleep, still affected by the illusions of the poison he had said something to him. He had talked about the Bloody People, he had said they were going to kill him. He chose though not to share that with Mika. It would simply make things worse and he was definitely not the right person to give him answers.

"I don't believe you. Also you make it sound like I am crazy about him or something. You, yourself said it was nothing else than sexual attraction so why are you suddenly so worried?" he asked him. Mika rolled his eyes, clicking his tongue in frustration. He was falling in his own traps and that was obvious. Philip was starting to get confused with his stance, he didn't know what to believe anymore. He was sure though, something was definitely wrong and Mika, he didn't say half of the things he knew. He was buried in some sort of secret and he didn't want Philip to find out.

"It's because it's not sexual attraction. You are crazy about him and it shows. I can see it from meters away. You like him and you know what? In three weeks you will be turning twenty and remembering your mate. What will happen then huh? Will you reject them for Kai or I don't know what? We've been taught from the very first moment we are born, we can do whatever we want but when the time comes Philip we go where we belong." he told him pointing at him with his index finger. His friend sighed, not understanding fully how the conversation had come to this.

"I am not crazy about Kai." he mumbled.

"Yes, lie to yourself."

"What is your problem Mika? You've never interfered in my relationships, not even once so what is so different this time?" Philip asked him.

"This time you're trying to get involved with someone very dangerous and I have to look out for you."

"Thank you for caring about me but I don't need you to do this. I don't want you to hurt Kai and you should stay out of it. I am not planning to do anything with him anyways."

"You promise?" Mika asked.

"I won't promise."

"Fine but please, be careful." he told him, his face turning sad. The truth was Philip was not able to stay mad at him for long. What he did, it was obviously terrible and he would have to keep an eye on him for a while but he seemed sincerely worried for a reason he wasn't allowed to know. That irked him the most.

No one would tell him anything. The best thing he had managed to get were two phrases from Kai while he was practically delirious. He couldn't even know if that was true, still he needed to find out, even if he had to do it on his own.

"I will. Now let's go. I am tired. I need to sleep and if I ever see you trying to hurt Kai I will leave you a cripple, I can promise you that."

"And you're saying you don't care." Mika said with a scoff.

"I just don't support unjustified murder."

"Believe me, it would be justice." Mika mumbled but both of them chose not to continue their conversation any longer. Philip did not want to make him think he was going to dig deeper into the matter.

He was going to though, starting from the Bloody People and who Kai was.
