Breakfast that morning in the Dawson house was eaten in silence. Nobody said a word, as they were all deep in thought, some weighed down with worry and others with fear.
Eve didn't touch her food; instead, she only played with it, pushing it around her plate with the silverware while glaring at her elder sister, who for the first time had been allowed to sit with them and eat. Yet she couldn't utter a single word. Her voice was locked by fear of the mad vampire after what he had done to her the night before, especially after the way the witch had nearly killed her today by twisting and shoving her!
Meanwhile, Rohan only drank his blood and didn't touch anything else. His expression remained blank, unreadable, though his fingers tapped rhythmically and silently against the table in a gesture of impatience, as though he was forcing himself to stay seated when he would rather not be there at all.
