He watched how she ate conveniently with her right hand, how she didn't show any reaction or repulsion to the cup of blood placed before him. How she was so defensive when Romero was interrogating her about what happened between her and the Vampire Lord Caspian before their arrival, how her mannerism seemed to change abruptly since they arrived from the castle. She was more sweet and affectionate towards him and how… till now… she hasn't broken down by the fact that the whole of the main castle is accusing her of murder and housing a demonic entity within her.
The girl he fell in love with would be so scared and trying to prove her innocence, not keep quiet and watch as they said all sorts about her.
